The last time we saw Jimmy G. and Murphy's Law on Punkcast was way back in '99 on lucky #13, They are still going strong, on the umpteenth line-up. With mainstay venues, such as CBGB, Coney Island High, and The Continental, now history the band has found a sympatico new Manhattan home in the hedonistic confines of Santos' Party House. This was the venue's inititiation with the annual Halloween show renamed Humpday since it was two days early, and a worknight - not to say that Jimmy didn't halt the show midway to call in sick for the next morning. The clips are the ever popular 'Quest for Herb' - retitled 'Quest for Fun' for the occasion, and the epic 'Ska Song / Skinhead Girl' - during which your cameraman endured a liberal dosing of Jagermeister.

PUNKCAST#1338
Indian jewelry are a dronepunk band from Houston TX. They've been around in various line-ups and names for some time before settling into the current touring power quartet. I'll leave the describing to Max Goldberg's flavorpill preview:
"The band's blasted beats face off against squalling synths as guitar rumbles clang beneath heavy toms. The droning vocals, meanwhile, ride a dark wave, smoothing the band's cacophony into a narcoleptic ghost dance." Suffice it to say they had me flashing back to the old Hawkwind days and scratching for every last glimmer of light to shoot by. The song here is called 'Swans'.

Dead Girl History Goodbye Blue Monday May 5 2008
Genevieve Ballon is the lead vocalist/musician with Long Island band Past Mistress. Here we see her in a rare solo performance at Brooklyn's Goodbye Blue Monday. Mostly she played synth or guitar, but for one song - 3:14 - she sat down at the GBM honky tonk and that is the one we have here.
What will come of the next decade on the Internet? We often take for granted the state of the net today, but there's no guarantee that it will remain this way. Will the digital future be dystopian, or is there a brighter outlook ahead than some may believe? Our panelists - thinkers and net visionaries, with backgrounds ranging from art, law, technology, politics, media, culture, and entrepreneurship - provided their perspectives on the future of the net, and engaged with members of the audience to further the exploration of what lies ahead.
