I knew there was a reason I randomly woke up 10 minutes ago. Some more of the P-fork fest lineup has been unveiled. There’s no NMH still, but the New Pornographers, Stephen Malkmus, De La Soul, Battles, and Ponys are now slated to play the three-day festival.
The festival is taking place at Chicago’s Union Park from July 13-15. Three-day passes are at $50. Can you say road trip? I can’t. My friends and I plan to fly.
Van She have been a buzz band / DJ troupe in Europe for a while (though I think they’re Aussies…) and I found their “Kelly” song this past fall on myspace (yeah it was my profile song for a while, and shall be again!) but it wasn’t till now that I saw this music video. Which I really liked! They’re so eighties-rific it’s practically obscene, and the bassist, aside from casting many creepy looks at the camera, has a Flock of Seagulls haircut! The video is basically a lot of Kellys through different eras/settings and I feel like I’m missing the point of it, though it does feature a lot of making out. And I know that if I were one of the Kellys in the video, I’d be going after the lead singer. Rrrowwr!
Then this gave me an idea — for Mindset, not my love life — could we do a piece where we all contribute our most ego-centric song, the one that causes you the most narcissism?
Just a thought!
x KELLY!
