Fuzzy Logic

Back in the mid to late 90's, indie rock meant, for me at least, the east coast, which meant Murderecords. Of course there was Sloan but then perpetual underdogs The Inbreds crept up from behind with their two-pronged pop assault and created their own little niche amongst the Murderecords family. chartattack reports the tracklisting for Sloan's greatest hits package "A Sides Win: 1992-2005" which will be released on May 10th and will include two new tracks, "All Used Up" and "Try To Make It". A special greatest hits package is also being released and will include the 16 track CD plus a full length DVD with all 14 videos, band interviews and live performances. chartattack also has an article on The Inbreds, who will be playing a reunion show tonight at Lee's Palace.

XL/Beggars Group are set to reissue five Super Furry Animals records that are currently out of print. On March 22nd fans of the Furries will be able to supplement their SFA collection with new pressings of "Fuzzy Logic", "Radiator", "Guerrilla", "Mwng", and "Out Spaced". [from Soul Shine Magazine ]

Some dude named Beans, who describes himself(in his song "I'll Melt You") as "The Ornette Coleman of this rap sh*t / The link between Suicide, Sun Ra and Bambaata is Ballbeam", will be in Toronto at Lee's Palace on May 9th. My birthday's May 8th, so barring any other shows not happening around that time, I might go and check out this show.

And possibly today or tomorrow, I may get around to a review of Margaret Cho's show yesterday at Massey Hall in Toronto. She's looking good these days[she's on the cover of the recent issue of eye] and she was hilarious yesterday. And damn does she have a potty mouth on her.
