The Nerve and Arrogance of Missionaries

Written by Lionel Tiger on May 22, 2001. Posted in Miscellaneous, Posts

Everyone is now overfamiliar with the event of several weeks ago, when an American missionary mother and her daughter were killed by a bullet fired at their plane, which a Peruvian fighter pilot decided was running drugs.

Written by None - Do not Delete on May 22, 2001. Posted in Miscellaneous, Posts

When I first heard the fast, buzzing guitar sounds of the Mr. T Experience, it dawned on me that every genre, along with its atrocities, has its geniuses.

Spoon and Guided by Voices at Irving

Written by None - Do not Delete on May 22, 2001. Posted in Miscellaneous, Posts

It’s rare for a band to emulate their records onstage this precisely and still redefine the songs. At their Irving Plaza show, Spoon provided few diversions from their studio roadmaps, but the songs they were highlighting, from the recent Girls Can Tell, were transformed by the very exposure to open air.
