In 1994, the Chinese newspaper Guangxi Daily reported that a man, Wang Tianbao from Henan province was fined 3,000 yuan after his wife gave birth to her third child (a son, after two daughters), in violation of China's "one child per couple" population control laws. The father supposedly made a joke about the high cost of finally having a male heir, saying: "A 3,000 yuan fine just for this little penis! We should just cut it off." This prompted the two daughters, ages 6 and 7, to sliced off the infant boy's penis with a paring knife and leave him to bleed to death while their father was away tending the fields. Upon his return, the father flew into a rage and clubbed the two girls to death with a shovel, then committed suicide by drinking insecticide. His wife "went into hysterics upon seeing the calamity, running naked through the streets screaming the names of her dead husband and children.This incident was also reported by the San Jose Mercury News of California, and the Orlando Sentinel of Florida.

I've just come back from the Blonde Redhead show here in Brussels and it was truly perfect.
|
FUCK damn fuck I missed them to go and see some friends playing their first show ever (I don't regret this, coz they're a great band and great people and I had loads of fun, it's my jinx I damn), and now you and a pro-photographer I know said me their live was supernice...
setilist, please? all new stuff or some oldies too? I like the new album, great production. |
Only recent stuff.
Black Guitar Here Sometimes Dr. Strangeluv SW Love or Prison Will There Be Stars Oslo Falling Man 23 Spring and by Summer Fall Encore: Not Getting There (We Are a Real Team) Harry and I Penny Sparkle |
23 is awful! Blonde Redhead's worst.

Haha, funny, it's my favorite one. I'm much more into their recent stuff than their early noise rock stuff so my favorite albums are pretty much 23, Penny Sparkle and Misery Is a Butterfly. :) |

but man......I don't think I like the direction they're taking. I listened to Penny Sparkle only once so far and didn't really blow me away upon first listen.... |
oh yeah and must spread rep to FoxBen. thanks for the setlist!

Misery is a Butterfly is great, 23 just bores the shit out of me. Which is odd, since I love every LP before it. I haven't given Penny Sparkle a full listen yet though. |
