Hipster: The Dead End of Western Civilization →
Dammit, I wasn’t going to comment on this article… or at most I was gonna chime in with a TL;DR and leave it at that. But since this is turning in to a vancouver tumblr reblog orgy (™), and since the article has real holes… here’s my 2 cents:
the article makes a few heavy handed assumptions: society can only have one - and only one - counter culture. A bunch of...

So far the investigators, drawn from several health authorities, have not found the source of the disease, which is thought to be a tainted food item distributed widely to restaurants and stores in the Lower Mainland.

“[MSTRKRFT] played a phenomenal show to a crowd of mojito-chuggin’ adorers.”
WHAT THE FIGGITY-FUCK?! I have questions:
who goes to a sweaty, psycho outdoor festival and opts for a drink which calls for fresh mint and simple syrop? Even the hippies at Folkfest are smarter than that.
who would chug a mojito? ever. seriously. this is just a shitty, expensive way to drink. ...

DAMMIT. I missed Shearwater at Zulu. Errands kicked my ass today. Can someone (Mandy?) tell me if this was any good? Kthankssssss.
charmingmandy:
I kinda want to go see Shearwater at Zulu today at 5pm, but I’m a little afraid that their presence will interfere with my record shopping, hence I might head down earlier… I guess this means I should probably shower…

Quinn’s Game Show Idea #1
You could get Ed Hardy and his douchebag fashions to sponsor the whole thing (come on… the brand aligns with the Granville set) and production costs wouldn’t be an issue.

the one thing the hype machine has taught me...
99% of mp3-driven music blogs provide no value (i.e. no insightful comentary, no filtration of “the wheat from the chaff”), other than file storage & access.
I mean… if you’re starting a post with “a million other blogs have already posted this…” -or- if the subject of your post is in 15 point bold font on the right hand side of hypem.com then odds...

Where does the dancing take place? There’s no dance floor, but you can dance. The music is all soul, funk, R&B, hip-hop, rock, and mash ups. But along with the music, we’re going to have a saxophone player or a trumpet player playing along with the D.J.’s.
Ummmm… how can this appeal to anyone with ears and/or taste?
