Mexicans are already radical. Why, just the other day I saw one skateboarding while drinking a Mt. Dew with his hat on backwards.

HELLO
IM CUTE
I NEED VALIDATION BUT ALSO FUCK BLADE

I'm not the biggest fan of La Dispute, but they put on one hell of a show. Saw them in Chicago and their set was insane. 

ooo i received (and accidentally opened) the first package from my secret santa. thanks a bunch SS, can't wait to see what else is coming!
 

I got written up at work for a complaint that is completely fabricated.
I was like "That seriously never happened. I remember every time I'm a dick to a customer"

All the cool kids are doing it.

Got mine a few weeks ago but was moving so tough get time to do this! Better late!
 

 
I used to have the FJM album so it's nice to have again. Haven't heard anything from Flying Lotus so I'm ready to play it!
 
I have no clue who my Santa is, but thanks!

Just buy her a gift card to Whole Foods, Urban Outfitters, or Hot Topic.

That's a vegetarian book? I'll have to tell my girlfriend she is always looking for cook books.
Also this year marks 10 years being vegetarian for me. Feels weird to say that.

Finally caught a white whale of mine "Whirr - Sway" Record Release Press, also found #1 out of 25 which is pretty nuts!
 

 

Then it's not a White Whale.
I have only one. I saw it on eBay once before I knew what it was and watched it swim on by for $350. It was Arygle Park - Misguided. I learned later than it was a test pressing, 1 of 3, it never made it past the test pressing stage. 2 of the 3 have been seen, it's unknown where the third is. And I only know where the copy that was on eBay is. I actually full on stocked the guy that won the auction, tracked him down to a message board that shut down, then stocked him again to his Facebook. Knowing the rarity of the item he wasn't actually freaked out, I've offered him over $500 several times but he isn't willing to give it up yet, though he's promised me first dibs. I keep in touch, reaching out every two years or so at this point.
THAT is a white whale.

Against Me!  - they played the same night Mad Caddies played in CT and I decided to stay at home and now I regret that I didn't see either band.
 
La Dispute. ugh

Oh, man, I hope you get to see PJ Harvey soon. Her gig in 2004 at the Great American in SF is one of the best gigs I've ever seen. 

Personally, I'd rather see my friends, VCers, and anyone who appreciates music and life as much as Cesar does, donate or kick a few dollars to help him out instead of buying off his collection. It'd be more meaningful than taking away a chunk of life which music can be and is.
