RTP-area local music and culture

[Duncan Murrell <dvmurrell AT nc.rr.com>]

I'm sorry, but why don't you take your Crescent City, Big Sleazy,  
degenerate bullshit and keep it to yourself, drunk.  I, for one, am  
sick to death of hearing about New Orleans.  
NewOrleansNewOrleansNewOrleans. Like I'm supposed to feel so f-ing  
sorry for you because you chose to bring death and destruction upon  
yourself with your sinning and your poor understanding of the term  
"sea level." I'm supposed to feel so sorry for you that not only do I  
have to watch my God-given and righteous American dollars stolen from  
me through taxes and handed over to you (money that will no doubt  
reach you while you're lying face down in the gutter dreaming of con  
games, vampires, and diddling people not your spouse), I'm supposed  
to buy your petit-pinko CD?  Did you think it would escape my  
attention that "liteworks" is an anagram for "elites work"?  Let me  
tell you something, Mr. Lenin, in this country the elites do not  
work, and we're damned proud of it. Otherwise, the terrorists win.  
Which I suppose would be all right with you, down there stewing in  
your Franco-Voodoo Sodom.

That said, do I go to the website to order the CD?  And  
congratulations on putting the CD out and keeping the Backporch  
Revolution, which ch-scenesters should remember fondly, rolling  
along. Trotsky.

p.s.  Ch-scenesters should also note that Alec and his various  
bandmates in Chef Menteur have been making great music down here,  
really pushing boundaries, and that they're set to perform at the  
famous Circle Bar on the anniversary of the hurricane. If any of you  
all want an excuse to come down here, think of coming down for the  
August 29th show, I would highly recommend it.
