Despite the good omens written in the sky, we got shafted by the Vangina's driveshaft on our way to Boston. Hijinx ensued. I got pictures of half of it.

Special thanks to Dave the mechanic, and Ad Frank for giving us a reason to drive to Boston and then introducing us to Dave so we could drive home. Extra special thanks to Andy Camaro-Savant for being silly and letting us stay at his place.

Peep the photographic evidence here.

Good times.

I swear that's my last "tits" pun.



Last night, BLING KONG had the unique opportunity to play on the street, in our street clothes, chilling out coffee house style, and playfully teaching children how to spell "vagina." It was the Make Music NY festival where roughly 600 bands and performers all across NYC took to the streets to celebrate the longest day of the year with music. Check out some pics, thanks to Jonny Leather, and be sure to note the cute doggie in the window, the grizzly dude leering at us from stage left, and Sizzler with his shirt off (can't miss that).

So annoyed that Gorillaz beat us to this.

Damon Albarn's cartoon pop chaps Gorillaz are to release a range of sex toys. The vibrators will feature pictures of the various imaginary members, and cost an impressive $275 each, or $1,650 for a complete set for those have lots of friends of a fornicatory bent.

Jamie Hewlett revealed that he's working with sex toy company Jimmy Jane on the range, which he describes as the "ultimate member" collection.

Last weekend's show with The Spinto Band, The Teeth and (surprise!) We Are Scientists was excellent! Great people in the crowd, great people on stage. It was pretty much the tits.

Speaking of tits, We Are Scientists have a Tits, Pits & Bits photoblog. What is that, you ask? Well pretty much they said, "Show us your tits (no? pits?)" and this is what they got. Milkshake, Moneyshot and I all make an appearance.

We have a GREAT show coming up on Saturday with the Teeth, Spinto Band and some mysterious band called Beat Up Old Fellows. (I looooove all these bands!) As per usual there is a door charge, but, as you may have guessed, the portion we get doesn't make BLING KONG rich. Even the bigger bands we've played with don't make a full living on this stuff. Some people say they do it for the fans. Well, we aren't on Dischord; we do it for the sexual action. Seriously. If you want to understand how it works, please see the funniest craigslist posting ever.

That's right, we're asking you out. On a date, this Saturday. You won't regret it. We're playing with three fantastic bands -- The Teeth (celebrating their CD release!), The Spinto Band, and Beat Up Old Fellas. Plus, we put out on a first date.
