Last weekend was a total flop for me. I was so wiped out that the only thing that I had the energy for, besides watching the Winter Olympics, the entire weekend was a quick stop at The Bubble for the Art's Sake event for like 30 minutes. It was pleasant though, and my friend Misha and I were particularly taken with Olga Volkus' works.

DJ Sensitive Side spins Tuesdays at Monterey

While I was talking to Protoman a few weeks back, he mentioned Jasper Delaini of local group The Secondhand Outfit quite a bit. To me, The Secondhand Outfit has always been that immensely popular group that slams out Poor House every now and then when I'm trying to have myself a peaceful little evening. Well, I'm the big ignoramus who overlooks things a little bit different than what I'm accustomed to sometimes, but I can't excuse myself for overlooking this rawness and eloquence anymore. Jasper's other incarnation is as DJ Sensitive Side, and as such he spins the widest variety of music I could possibly imagine at The Monterey Club on Tuesday nights.

I think that I will take Propaganda booker/promoter Steve Rullman up on his recent suggestion that I check out Wednesday night's show at Propaganda. The evening throws three touring bands together with one local act. It's Gringo Star, Mumpsy, The Beauvilles, and South Florida's own Woodmen Hall.

So, former Stonefox drummer Jeff Rose joined up with Paul Simundich and, I believe, two other former members of Quiet River to form Goolsby, which will play its first show at Propaganda in Lake Worth on March 15. I don't know what a Goolsby is, but I don't care. I'm just psyched to see the band formerly known as Quiet River back in action.
