Playback: The Week (5/30/08 - 6/6/08) In Review

Here's what you might've missed this week on DC9 as you celebrated the democratic party finally getting around to a maybe, sorta, kinda nomination... - We heard 22 seconds off the new Toadies record and shrugged apathetically. - We busted out our camera phones to help History At Our Disposal...

Here's what you might've missed this week on DC9 as you celebrated the democratic party finally getting around to a maybe, sorta, kinda nomination...

- We heard 22 seconds off the new Toadies record and shrugged apathetically. - We busted out our camera phones to help History At Our Disposal out. Then we realized we don't have camera phones. - We forced an inferior music blog into submission. Y'know, 'cause we rep our shit hard, yo. - We wondered why there's been a little green globule sitting behind Max Cady's drum kit lately. - We lamented the fact that we're not gonna be commanded to shout out the letters "p" and "t" ad nauseum at local hip-hop shows any longer. Oh well, 'bout time the other letters got their shine. - We got good vibrations from Candlemass and its new-ish area-bred vocalist. - We learned why the guys in Brave Combo never have trouble with their cars. - And then there were the mp3s...
