Never heard of them. But for some reason, the gentleman in the picture above looks (to me) like Stewart Copeland.

So I missed a thread...
Although I did check them out and hijacked a few songs. I may purchase a CD... maybe even possibly think about the idea of going to the show.

Bump. We'll be there about 10:30 or so. See you there!

It's looking like I will too. GusGus is out of town until Saturday night and I am just not looking forward to going home to an empty house again.
Pre-Sale on the web site is over, so I will have to take my chances with the door.

If we weren't so broke we'd be there. Lately there's been too much swanking for our banking. Grr.

Have fun, all you groovy swankers.

I should probably wear something "swanky", but screw it: I'm gonna wear my pineapple Hawaiian shirt and jeans.

Man, did that place start jumping once Ursula hit the stage!
He's an amazing DJ and mash-up artist. Stuff that you won't hear on his recordings included a hot version of Sweet Transvestite, a mash-up of Light My Fire and Evil Woman, and a surprisingly well-matched mash up of Madonna's "Hung Up", New Order's "Blue Monday" and more of Abba's Gimme Gimme Gimme".
There also was a profuse use of familiar tracks from my own teen and pre-teens years. Lyrics such as "Paranoia may distroy ya" made me scramble for a band name to place on the lyrics (The Kinks) and a Disney homage with dialog and music from Aladdin.
I was amused, fascinated, and enerized for a good 2 hours.
Oh, who brought the Japanese triplets who suddenly appeared in our seats?
Kevy Baby

I'm glad you can recall all the minutia: I just recall one two-hour long orgasm of music. He is absolutely amazing! Whether I was engaged in my spasmodic flailing that might have resembled dancing or sitting down with my eyes closed allowing myself to melt into the sound and experience - I was in a state of ecstacy (without the use of drugs - just a drink and a half).
I also remember the jungle mix of "These Boots Were Made for Walkin" rocked.
Two solid hours of seamless joy.

Also, if you would like to check out Ursula 1000, there are two tracks available from the "Kinda Kinky" album as well as a one-hour long set (labeled "Mega-Mix) which was recorded live in the Fall of 2005. Just go to the Media section of the Ursula 100 web site (http://www.ursula1000.com/media.htm).

The Video for one of y favorite songs, Kinda Kinky, is fantastic and worth a download.

We ended up there, through the kindness of one Mr. Baby...and if I'd known how great it was going to be I would have paid my own way.
I haven't danced like that in a long time. The man knows his beats. Seamless mixes in seemingly clashing styles left me breathless. The club went wild.
If there was music like that near me on an average weekend, I wouldn't have to exercise.

Somehow the hot, crowded, filthy, faraway desert of Coachella does not tempt me in quite the same way as the nearby, swanky nightclub of Santa Monica.

Nice grazzy field, lots of room so it's easy to get away from the throngs, mere 2 hour drive (and a swanky hotel to stay at), and the heat was not too bad last year. It's a blast!

04-04-2006, 10:52 AM
I will take last year as an abberation, then.
I have been following Coachella thru traveler's tales for many years.
(Mind you, everyone I've ever talked with has said it's a blast, but their description of events has varied - with hot, crowded and dusty being the most used verbiage .... besides awesome.)
Not Afraid
04-04-2006, 10:54 AM
Well, I don't know how it could be dusty with all of that grass. Even the parking lot is grass. Crowded, yes, if you're in the mix and hot has varried. At least it is dry heat. Even I can handle that.

I have had fun at DCA. Usually I was with iSm and Zapp... but I've had fun. Rolling down the rope bridges comes to mind.
MA is the entire DLR for the harder level.

You know, taunting is even more fun if I don't have to back it up with a good MA performance.
Our first MA win was at DCA Mad Scramble, I think.
But without you maybe we'll come rank in the high 20s instead of the low 30s. You do know that we're only one team, right? I didn't realize how much voodoo power we had ;)

You guys are the He-man and Shera of MA. Except I think they were siblings and that would be kinda ikky.
You guys will be gone, EuroMonkey and team won't be playing. That's two teams. We came in 32nd... maybe we can come in 29th now. :D
I'd say it's our goal to beat the Denton Affair, but we like to aim higher :p
