don't know if any of you guys is planning to go to this year's Mo'Fo at Main d'oeuvre in St-Ouen on the 29th-30th June and 1st July, wich is gonna be the last Mo'Fo

more info there : http://www.mainsdoeuvres.org/view_article.asp?id=930

great bands will be playing like the Silver Jews, 2 ex-Vaselines, Yaya Herman Dune, Zombie (i'm just talking about the band i know here, the other ones might be good too)

and...i'm gonna open the whole festival with my band Lapin Machin
... Wouuuuhououuu...

here's what they wrote about us in this article :

Lapin Machin est l’association de 3 musiciens DIY parisiens [...] leur fraicheur et leur spontaneité n’est pas sans rappeler un certain Jeffrey Lewis et sa famille New yorkaise…

i don't pretend to be as good as our dear NY band, but the comparison is pretty cool to hear since they are one of my favorite band ever

and just in case we'll be playing in a couple of days in paris
here's the paint poster i made :

no actually our home made record has just been burnt in something like 15 copys, and there are only 2 left we putted at ground zero
but we're planning on making 15 other ones soon, we're just pretty lazy as it takes a lot of work to do all the cardboxes packaging and the drawings for each cd.
we're working on a new one with more songs for the Mo'Fo, hope it will be done on time, but we pretty much suck at recording so it takes us years to have a lame garage sound.

anyways as soon as we will finish our cardboxes i can send you one if you want, or if you don't care about the packages i can just give you the song in mp3, most of them are on myspace already anyways. Just let me know, it will be a pleasure.

Héhé thanks, i like your songs from my space, i really like them, so yes i'm interested in having a copy of it Smile

I prefer one with cardbox if it possible, i like records for its music but also love to collect cool items Smile

but anything will be ok.
Music business is a real shame, i saw Elsa Tovati yesteraday on tv, an actress who decided to sing for some reason and of course she had no problem with making a record, that's sick, there's a lot of people with talent who can't release record and so many bad bad music in the record store, that's insane !

I've heard so many good things about Mo'Fo, I really wish I could go.
Is this really the last one? That sucks. I'm listening one of Jeff's shows from there at the moment.
Hope the show goes well. Have fun.
