My birthday is August 28th. If you want to be the. fucking. champ., you can buy me and me lady passes to All Tomorrows Parties, which I want so bad in my life. They celebrate ten years this September at the delightfully creepy Kutshcer’s, and they brought in delightfully creepy Jim Jarmusch to pick his favorites to play.

A good list thus far… Explosions in the Sky, Sonic Youth, The Breeders, Fuck Buttons, The Books, Papa M, Aspe, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Wooden Shjips, The Black Angels, Vivian Girls, and more. Fucking killer. And of course, the Friday Don’t Look Back series continues this year with The Stooges, Sleep, The Scientists, and Mudhoney (who I saw a couple years ago at Chicago’s Double Door and, yes, they’ve still got it).

The rodeo goes down September 3 – 5 in Monticello, NY. More info at the ATP Festival site.
