Awesome downloadable mixtape of lady art/music collectives (Disband, Les Reines Prochaines, etc.) from Jenny Woolworth’s Women in Punk Blog.

Also check out the 90s American Girl Poprocks Mixtape from a few months back. I’ve been rocking it nonstop. Nostalgia in a can, man.

feminists have more fun

Last night some ladyfriends and I hit up the Outfest screening of Le Tigre: On Tour at the Ford Amphitheatre. It was amazing! Watching JD, Johanna, and Kathleen navigate gender politics, Hatebreed, and inane interviewers with wit and pizazz was nothing short of inspirational. And of course the live footage, complete with costumes and choreography, was super fun, as Le Tigre shows always were.

Film still via Le Tigre: On Tour site.

Tomorrow would have been Ian Curtis’ 54th birthday, and to honor the occasion, this week’s Part Time Punks radio show will be a tribute to Joy Division. As an extra special bonus, the entire Joy Division performance from their December 18, 1979 gig at Les Bains Douches in Paris will be broadcast in its entirely (for the first time EVER!!!). Tune in to KXLU tomorrow from 3-6 PST (88.9 FM Los Angeles and/or kxlu.com).

AND THEN, this Sunday at Part Time Punks the club, it’s Factory Records Nite.

(And we could dance.)

hospital records

June 29, 2010     Filed under: I Heart

After spending the last two days visiting my sister in the hospital, it was a total solace to come home and find a package of records waiting for me outside the door (the fruition of an “I’m buying myself a birthday present” whim). The lovely little gems I just received from Caputured Tracks (one of the best young labels out there!) include the Aias 7″, Grass Widow s/t 12″, and Brilliant Colors s/t 12″. Yessss!!! So if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go drink a big-ass glass of wine and listen to some records. Goodnight. (Please enjoy some Aias though. They will make you smile.)
