Further proof that there is no limit to the genius of Joe Pernice:

> It came to me as if in a dream, but I was wide awake, coveting a mesh
onion bag full of suet hanging from a bird feeder: There ought to be a show
like MTV Cribs for indie musicians/actors. Maybe MTV2 could do it (if they
haven't already) and call it MTV2 Cribs. Think about it.

> In a way it's sad that it has come to this. Would that the pimped-out
Hummers and drive-in sized plasma screens could lock me to my own TV the way
they once could, long ago, in say, March of this year. The thirst is no less
strong, but oh, satisfaction, you capricious little tart, where do you go?
Where do you go when glimpses inside Usher's great room no longer titillate?
(The centerpiece of which is a thrice larger than life marble likeness of
himself (wrapped by Christo) getting, as the kids would say, "jiggy" at an
awards show?) I'll tell you where you go? You go straight into the musty
crawl space of that dude from Spoon. You put in some hang time in Cat
Power's mud room, is what you do. You give a Bill Curtis-worthy examination
to the carport where the Tyde parks their rental van.

> For any of you producer types who are having a difficult time visualizing
my idea, I took it upon myself to shoot a short pilot. And now I ask that
you please sit back and enjoy the show.

> Any trouble with that link, just go to www.pernicebrothers.com, to the a/v
section, where you can also hear streaming audio from the new record.

> Also, we're taking pre-orders for the new record, which we can ship only
to US addresses, in the "store" on the website. Thanks to all of you who
have placed orders thus far. Your generosity will enable Joe to update his
"crib" someday, or at least alleviate the boredom that is fueling this
particular creative streak. Coming soon: the Charlie Ashmont t-shirt.
