Back Home

Back from an amazing journey overland from Cambodia-Thailand. Flew from BKK to Phnom Penh Cambodia, then overland by car to - Siem Reap - Phnom Penh - Sihanoukville (beach.) With a few stops for lunch, fried spider buying and more in towns along the way.

After Cambodia we crossed the border from Cambodia back into Thailand via the Hat Lek land crossing. Then took the minibus/ferry onward to Ko Chang island(Thailand),for more beaches and solitude and elephant rides/swims.

Next back to Bangkok for final shopping days at the weekend market and food courts. Always fun.

Then the flight home ... I want back already!

Great trip May 28 - June 17 2010

Mi Ami , Steal Your Face

Super cool group MiAmi from the west coast has released a follow up to their awesome debut, Watersports, on Thrill Jockey. Steal Your Face is available on vinyl or cd at Thrill Jockey.
I really love this band with their own style of what I will call "freaked out dance noise tribal rhythms, while spacing out." You will just have to form an opinion for yourself on this one.
I was lucky enough to catch them play 529 last year and it was one of the best shows of '09 for me.
