Twisted Sister’s Eddie Ojeda, says “This thing f’n rules….seriously, it is the only thing I consider a string cleaner”
He was quite distant during that. It was kind of odd. He was in orbit. His place was on the stage. And when he was off stage, he was not there at all. Occasionally, after a few drinks, he would be alright. But generally he was a little bit strange. Obviously now, I totally understand it.

WE DROVE TO INDIANA
we kick off cmj with the stereogum/popgun party tonight tuesday 10:30pm at glasslands. rsvp/buy tickets here.
four new songs…
Our friends - and one of our favorite bands - Mr. Dream begin a six show, five night CMJ marathon this evening. If you have not yet seen them, check them out. And if you have, then you know.
I definitely found [The String Cleaner] worked positively. By using it after every playing session, the strings resisted corrosion for a noticeably longer period of time and retained their punch longer as well. Regarding ease of use, there really wasnt any difficulty or high time requirements. Overall i would say that it was very effective and did not add any cumbersome rituals to my playing.

Jeff Mangum - who you might know by his performing pseudonym of Neutral Milk Hotel - graciously filled the void left in the wake of the Radiohead rumors, by showing up at the Occupy Wall Street protests and giving a surprise, intimate performance last night.*
*or about as intimate as something can be in the middle of Manhattan
