Live Through This

Last night, I decided I should finally come to terms with the reality that 85 percent of the people I know in NYC live in Brooklyn at this point so off I went to a bar where, at least at a somewhat unfashionably early hour, they decided that playing Hole's Live Through This in its entirety would be a good idea: See web-only content:

The non-single tracks have a less-produced, more riot grrl-y flavor. All of which seems like as good a time as any to link to the Melissa Auf der Maur blog.
