Each month Joe Yoga and team Music take on John Murdock and team Comedy in a hilarious, engaging, and provocative showcase of the fucked-up and the fucking amazing. At the end the audience votes, the winners get the trophy and the glory and the losers get shamed, and somehow have to face themselves in the morning.

COINCIDING WITH THE RELEASE OF THEIR FIRST ALBUM, this unpredictable, unforgettable, outrageously funny musical experience is both the band’s breakdown and breakthrough…. Part Lucille Ball on her 3rd bottle of 5 Hour Power, part Meatloaf, sexy with a side of silly… KILL THE BAND takes you on a cleverly comedic trip and performs original songs from various musical genres in this balls-to-the-wall, multi-media, performance art piece. Escape the normal, punch average in the face, burn your self help books on tape and catch the thrill that is KILL THE BAND!

* an asshole

* a whore

Jay Leno, you entitled prick, you gave up the Tonight Show and then whined and schemed and stabbed Conan in the back (just like you stabbed Letterman in the back) to get your way. I hope someone beats you with a stick.

new Joe Yoga album Life Out East coming Spring 2010!

I play in a band called Chink Floyd, “The world’s worst Pink Floyd cover band”. The band features yrs truly, Ariel Bitran, Mike Milazzo (absent from this particular gig), Killer Kelly Dwyer, and Touching You. The band is fronted, of course, by Master Lee. I work with Master Lee in a couple different improv/spoken word projects (The White Devils, The World’s Worst DOORS cover band, etc…) but this is probably my favorite. Here’s a snippet of what we do, from our Dec 19, 2009 gig at Sidewalk Cafe in the East Village.

comments, etc.? We have a myspace page here and you can friend us to keep up with shows, etc. Check us out, we are definitely a singular experience.

The one song I heard today that I liked enough to bring it up to the internet at large (another one of my “new” “year’s” “resolutions” being to both blog and hunt for new music more often) is by a band called Swimmingpool the Band and it’s called Pslam (Evening) so I guess that’s a music recommendation from me to you. I don’t like saying you SHOULD listen to them and I hate saying “You’ll love it!” even more, especially in a weird public space like the internet, because one, who the hell are you and how do I know you’ll like it, and two… well, ok. Maybe there IS just one reason.

One day I will find my Permanent Autonomous Zone, and it will be bigger than an elevator and you will be able to see me on the other side, working, with the heads of Republican senators on sticks, sharpened at both ends, natch.

Lyrics

I gotta send what I can’t receive home
I’d have it made were it not for these old

paper thin walls

We understand it could all be breached, though
You would not believe
What could pass through these old

paper thin walls
