I write to you from the floor of a tiny bedroom in Est-Berlin, drinking a celebratory early afternoon cran-Vodka in your honour. I wish I could be there to celebrate but apparently I’m on my way to an afternoon of dancing in the streets to some minimal techno-music… Hopefully this month’s Mess is the best [...]
I really, really should invest in a digital camera. Like, really. Possibly tomorrow!
Not having enough money for any more than three beer tickets is unwise.
At the same time, it doesn’t matter because someone around you will always have plenty to share.
Surviving on beer and energy drinks only works until the 8 pm dizzy spells kick [...]

Indyish.com is asking [...]

Jason Bolanis from Soundcraft was the new soft-spoken star on the Monthly Mess team, he and James Finnerty had the AKG mics subtle and [...]
The 13th Monthly Mess (or 1-year aniversary mess, to be less creepy) felt to me like the smoothest and certainly tastiest show to date. The growing number of artists, organizations, sponsors and volunteers who are eager to contribute to Indyish events is itself a huge mark of success for the network.
I created this band a few weeks ago when Alanah said she was organizing a “country”-themed mess. We’re called “Deep River Decoy,” and we jammed all together for the first time this afternoon. Here’s a preview of what you’ll be hearing if you come to the Monthly Mess on Sunday.

We’ve raved about the Midnight Poutine podcast on the blog before, but now we’re just blushing.
