Dennis Rodman And Kim Jong-un Are Friends And That Is All. Leave a comment ». This week former professional basketball player Dennis Rodman went to North Korea. Why? It’s kind of unclear. He went along with a few of the Harlem Globetrotters and a video crew from Vice magazine. Rodman, known during his ball playing days for his large personality, wild hair and penchant for cross dressing, might seem an incongruous guest for a country with fewer than 30 legally approved hairstyles. But there’s no rea...

QWEE! an indie-poplog: liechtenstein full-length!
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/04/liechtenstein-full-length.html
Liechtenstein - "Everything's For Sale" (Live in Glasgow). It’s what we’ve been waiting for since, what, 2006? After a full two years to get Apathy. Quickly followed with Everything’s For Sale. But now, just a few short months later, Liechtenstein will finally release its first full-length (well, nearly full-length, since there are only 23 minutes on that 10-inch) called Survival Strategies in a Modern World. On May 26 on Fraction Discs. In Sweden and on Slumberland. Here in the US! And now Suburban Kids.

QWEE! an indie-poplog: March 2009
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
LAST WEEK: one happy island with very truly yours. One Happy Island with Very Truly Yours and dancing by The Revelettes at the Darkoom (March 15, 2009). First on the list, last week Sunday I had the delightful privilege to see One Happy Island. With Very Truly Yours. In the very last show hosted in Chicago by my friends Colour Me Pop. I will be sad to see them go, but I do think they had a lovely send-off for their voyage to London. Since the past two. Oh, and did I mention there was go-go dancing? Chica...

QWEE! an indie-poplog: on colin clary and buying music
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/04/on-colin-clary-and-buying-music.html
On colin clary and buying music. The Smittens - Gumdrops (Live at Indietracks 2008). Up until a few years ago, I think I spent every available dollar to my name on buying records and going to concerts. Once in college, however, I didn’t even have time to shop for records, much less want to spend the money on them, and most of the shows I go are free from WHPK. Or the bands themselves. There is something, though, that I will never get over about buying really well packaged records. New anniversary 5x7-inc...

QWEE! an indie-poplog: very truly yours
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/02/very-truly-yours.html
I am almost too excited to see the Pains of Being Pure at Heart. Tonight. I know at some point, I am going to have to stop listening to their album so I don't get too burned out before the show. And, while that time may not quite have come (I mean, the show's not until 9pm.), I can gear up in a different way—by listening to the wonderful openers, Very Truly Yours. Very Truly Yours is the perfect simple pop band Chicago has never had. They just released a great split EP on Cloudberry. Came in a far second...

QWEE! an indie-poplog: POPFEST! day two: cats on fire, liechtenstein, the radio dept., and the tartans
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/05/popfest-day-two-cats-on-fire.html
Day two: cats on fire, liechtenstein, the radio dept., and the tartans. Cats on Fire with Liechtenstein, The Radio Dept., and The Tartans @ Don Hill's, New York (May 15, 2009). Late again, I walked as fast as I could across town to get to Don Hill’s (the lol home of all those infamous Misshapes parties), hoping I wouldn’t miss The Tartans. Luckily, they were just setting up when I arrived. My low spirits were made lower with the over-priced spirits at the bar ($7 for a watered-down gin and tonic? The Tar...

QWEE! an indie-poplog: POPFEST! day three: eux autres, the secret history, pants yell!, and the radio dept.
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/05/popfest-day-three-eux-autres-secret.html
Day three: eux autres, the secret history, pants yell! And the radio dept. The Secret History with The Radio Dept., Pants Yell! And Eux Autres @ The Bell House, New York (May 16, 2009). I used to keep a blog about live music, but the problem was always that I was months and months late with reviews. That seems to be happening here, too. But, there also isn’t much to report about the third day of Popfest. I was a little excited to see The Secret History. Who I heard were a little better tonight from Krist...

The pains of being pure at heart - on tour! The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Gothenburg Handshake. There's no question for me that The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. The Pains are also going on tour! They're playing Schuba's on February 11 here in Chicago and I've already purchased my tickets. I would not miss such a charming band for anything.

QWEE! an indie-poplog: LAST NIGHT: the pains of being pure at heart with very truly yours
http://qwee-pop.blogspot.com/2009/02/last-night-pains-of-being-pure-at-heart.html
LAST NIGHT: the pains of being pure at heart with very truly yours. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart with the Depreciation Guild and Very Truly Yours at Schuba's, Chicago, IL (February 11, 2009). Sorry for the iPhone photos). It’s always sad when you look forward to seeing a band for months—keeping their album on repeat, watching their videos, blogging compulsively. 8212;but then, it’s over, just like that. But a year and a half (really! Who I blogged about. Yesterday), were absolutely charming and were ...
