Todays dose is Ain't No Crime courtesy of Gogol Bordello, a Gypsy Punk band from New York's Lower East Side. I caught an interview with the lead singer on NPR last night and found some of the music they played off the album to be slightly reminiscent of The Pogues. Talent, raw energy, an infectious beat and the singer has a total porno moustache... what more could you want on a Thursday morning?

Well I can't just mention The Pogues though and not drop a personal favorite of mine in the mix: "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" (which sounds like the title of a Garth Ennis penned issue of Hellblazer or Preacher to me).

heeheehee... are you gonna be all bouncy like that tonight??? Can't wait to see you! What's the plan?

Yes, this is an unrelated comment. I don't watch videos... reminds me of tv.

Gogol Bordello also does a brilliant stage show. I totally encourage you to go see them if you ever get the chance.

1. That mustache is totally punk. Jello Biafra wishes he could grow it like that.
2. Is that Orlando Bloom singing back-up for the Pogues? Go back and look at it. (re: last night's entertainment)
3. Is it the good stuff or the rock-gut coffee that makes you bounce up and down like that?

Also, unrelated

Should we still plan to meet you for dinner on Thursday before D*C?

Would you mind if we did drinks instead maybe (for reasons strictly budget related)?
