Remember when I used to mp3 emails out.  yeah.  sorry.  XXX has been acting like a needy girlfriend lately.  All intent and affectionate when it wants something, but when I need something they kick me in the balls just for asking.  Anyway, I will prolly have to remain on mp3 email break til next week after this, but I did manage to find some time to send a few tracks from one of my favorite bands.  I know most of you guys dont like kickball, and some of you said you actually said you hated them, but I don’t really care.  When I got into work today and saw an email syaing that they posted 2 new songs on their myspace page it made my week.  I read on to find out that they have a new album coming on out soon, and that they are going to be playing NY in June.  Now I’m in heaven.  Most of you guys know I don’t really get pysched about shows anymore, but this is one of the few exceptions.  I can’t wait!

Some last.fm kickball shit:

No two Kickball shows are the same, but whether the group is in a sparkling new club, a dive bar, or a dingy basement, the Olympia trio always seems to embrace and exploit the inherent awkwardness of each performance.  First Kickball makes you blush; then it makes you wish more bands could be this good and, moreover, this free to be itself.
