I would have quit work and made travel arrangements if I had heard about this tour in time: Konono No. 1 is going to ruin each city it touches. I've heard that San Francisco is in shambles.

It'll be the best thing in town tonight...

I hate that venue too. And i can walk there from home too, it's a shame...

I'm checking them out at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. I had tickets to see The Joggers in Akron but this caught my eye instead. I think I'm making the right choice.

You are. Chicago people, you better be there now.

que fuck is this...I've never heard of it...anyone wanna ysi me a sample???

I can provide YSI when I'm back in mtl. Konono no. 1 is an amplified mbira ensemble, essentially. A ton of bounce, and a celebratory vibe! Crude and DIY.

Damn, I don't remember the Wex getting anything that good when I was at OSU.

Can we get a ruling on whether this is an 04 or 05 release? Shmoo?

Just got back from the Pittsburgh show at the Warhol Museum. Good times had by all (Conga lines, babies with earplugs, cheap wine - all surrounded by some of Warhol's finest moments.) I wanted to pick up a cd or two but didn't see any for sale. Can't find them in the stores. Totally worth the trip. Check em out if you get the chance.
