There's Only 3 Kinds of Thank U's Out There

This usually isnt the "designated time of yr" 2 say Thank U for stuff.

Generally mainstream society tells us that we should start being cognizant of the things we should start 2 b thankful 4 right as Halloween ends nd as we are propelled in2 the consumer "HolidaySeason" til we reach an eventful climax @ ThanksgivingDinner where evry1 is obliged 2 share their most meaningful "I M Thankful 4" 's until evry1 just feels bad 4 how much they have.
These feelings of Thnx r expected 2 continue throughout the rest of the December month until u r completely surrounded by gifts/gift-giving nd thus the only thing 2 b thankful 4 is that ur getting that new Wii2.0 4 Xmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza/Choose.ur.own.LooselyAffiliated with Religion.December-based.holiday

It thus seems like midApril is just not even remotely a designated time 2 "b thankful". But at a time where excellent Summer Jams r beginning 2 leak via mp3 Blogs, the weather is getting warmer 4 those of us not lucky enough 2 live in LosAngeles, California, school nd other related academic endeavors r coming 2 an end, nd the MusicFestival Season has just kicked off with the best music festy in the country (Coachella), theres a surprising amount 2 b thankful 4.

Nd so I want 2 personally share a story of Thanx on this random April day that may or may not be the 23rd day of the Month.
While there r lots of things Im happy 2 b thankful 4,
There's only 3 things I want 2 specifically call upon. (similarly 2 the # of kinds of fish)

Nd here they are:
1. Crystalmeth. Thank u Meth 4 being the gateway drug of choice 4 so many hipsters/gays/Latvians around the world.
Thank u 4 supplying some hilarious moments in the lives of many of my frnds.
Thank u 4 being the 1 drug thats still funny 2 joke about, bcuz lord knows that coke jokes are so last yr.

2. AustinPryfogle. Thank u NorCarolina-based grrrl named AustinPryfogle 4 being courageous, strong, and above all, absolutely amazing at life.
Thank u 4 giving us so many wonderful stories 2 share at the dinner table.
Thank u 4 not letting fear dictate ur life, nd instead, letting ur own spirit guide u.
Nd thank u 4 getting me involved in the legal system.

Nd finally,
3. Black Moth Super Rainbow. Thank u 4 FINALLY leaking a few tracks from ur upcoming album 'Eating Us'. Since that late-January day when the Sampler track was first released, I knew this album would b amazing, but was horrified nd dismayed 2 realize that I wouldnt get to hear any of it until months in advanced. But now, the time has cum 4 a few tracks 2 be leaked over the internet.
Thank u 4 not getting all leak-prevention-crazy like some artists do.
Thank u 4 making albums that Im actually going 2 buy, nd not just on iTunes, but on Vinyl, bcuz thats how epic this album will be.
Thank u 4 being MorganArons-esque "Originals" by making completely original-sounding music that fills my head with wonders nd excitement nd intrigue. (Read more L.A. Nouveau posting about Being an Original via MorganArons here: http://lanouveau.blogspot.com/2009/01/hipsters-intense-discussion-on.html)

So if ur willing 2 hear a leaked track from the new album, enjoy 1 here.
This is the lead single, called "Born On A Day the Sun Didn't Rise".
Its a bit more intense than ur average trip-balls Black Moth song, but its undeniably 1 of their best songs yet.

Enjoy it here:

2kNine Begins With BlogArt

I know u h8 me.
It's been days.
Literally.

But I'm in vacation mode.
Which, I have realized, is a very counterproductive place 2 b.
While it's nice 2 relax nd b lazy,
It has killed my innermotivation 2 work/perform/communicate/blog/live.

So I apologize.
But not rly.
Cuz evry1 deserves a break.
Evry1 deserves some r+r once in a while.
So the last 3 days lacking posts has been my r+r.

Nd now it's time 2 get back in2 the Blogosphere.
Cuz I h8/miss the Blogosphere.
aka The Blogging Wrld that virtually exists on the interweb.

But bcuz a lot of ppl r still winding down from crazy NewYrs partying last night, I think a rly angsty rly hipster blog post would just b too overwhelming.

So 2 start things off slow nd simple in the yr Zro9, I bring u L.A. Nouveau's 2nd edition of "BlogArt: Where Words=Art"
2Days "BlogArt; Wrds=Art" segment is merely my hipster-esque reaction 2 the Best Song of 2001 whose true meaning I didnt find until 2ZroZro8. Talk about a time delay. (Not 2 b confused with Tom DeLay).




With evrything that went on in 2ZroZro8, I think it's time that in 2kNine, we try 2 Give "It" Away more.

Selfless actions will b so much more respected/appreciated as more nd more ppl lose their homes 2 foreclosures, more nd more ppl lose their jobs 2 Karl Rove, etc.
It's time 2 Give "It" Away.

And "It" can b anything. It can b a toy u dont use no mo. It could b a stuffed animal/monster that u find on ur doorstep nd ship off to some1 special. It could b music. Like, a MixCd, or even a GarageBand original recording that u dont mind putting online 4 free so ppl can dwnload it evrywhere without spending OneDollar at their neighborhood iTunesStore.\
It's time 2 Give "It" Away.

In 2kNine I, José, will work harder 2 to give "It" away.

What will/can u give away? Whats ur "It"?
Share. Please.
Inspire othrs. Lets start a Give "It" Away movement.
Lets get on the Channel63 TenOClock Nuze 4 we alls's selflessness.
Lets get othrs 2 Give "It" Away too.


Here's 2 2kNine. Nd to Zero 7 song-inspired movements.
Here's the actual song if u need more inspiration / need a perfect song 2 chill out nd make love to.


Zero 7 - Give It Away


Bitch 2gether, as 1 ppl, nd Give "It" Away.,
José
