Health and Foals played at the Glass House in Pomona tonight, and let me tell you. Yes, I will tell you. It was great. Health's sound was so good this time (comparatively, for instance, when they played Sunset Junction and the sound guy was a jerk). Although the turn out was disappointing, the show was awesome. As always, if you have the opportunity to see them, do. Plus they got me into the show for free, as I interviewed them earlier for KSPC (expect the full, non-radio edit soon). In summary, Health is super cool and super nice. You will love each other.




For not being a Foals fan, I have to say their performance was pretty good. I especially love thier love of the disco beat. Fairly post-punk/post-rock but pretty dancey. They did not do an encore (according to Rachel, its not a British thing), but we all know encores aren't hip anymore anyways.

Well, Fitness was born from his mother's womb. He was born in Boulder, I think. If that's not true than I am taking artistic license, because I want to construct a narrative. So here it goes: a narrative about Fitness.
He listened to too much Kraftwerk, too much krautrock (maybe) and then he got into Stereolab. His obsession with Stereolab hasn't faded, but I tend to identify his music (fitness) with Kraftwerk. It's very motoric. His newest album is all the same tempo using the same (I'm pretty sure) 808 beats. They're very retro, although Fitness would never feel comfortable with me using the word retro. There is no objective understanding of music anyways, he would tell me.
Right now he's playing a show on KSPC. He's covering Show Room Dummies by Kraftwerk (WE ARE SHOW ROOM DUMMIES x 100). I'll post some photos of his performance shortly. We'll put an mp3 up too.

Speaking of mp3s of radio shows , I'll also put up a deathbypanda performance shortly. It's got some new songs no one has ever heard (except for the people who have heard it).

Fitness' set is about as minimal as art gets. Very minimal aesthetic. I can't even tell if he's blinking,
