GPGDS, Boxing Day Edition

Greetings from the Wintry Wonderland of Wachachacha, New York. The Beck and I survived a ten hour trip up from Phoenix on Monday the 24th, including a lovely four hour stopover in Newark, New Jersey. (Nothing a few episodes of Mr. Show and a delving into The Corrections couldn't handle). Rolled into the iPAbode just in time for Xmas eve dinner with the extended iPClan, enjoyed a fantastic and throughly lazy Xmas day, and visited with the B of CBS on Wednesday (and super thanks to Liz for saving Xmas and giving me the Simpsons Movie which we've already watched for the first of four hundred times). That's a superfast version of three days which brings us to last night when we saw the ever-evolving and mind-blowingly improving (mind-blowing because it seems like they would have run out of cap room, but they do keep getting better and tighter, more emotionally transcendent, etc.) Giant Panda Guerrilla Dub Squad. This post is primarily an excuse to post pictures, but let it be known that the GPGDS continue to smoke musically and drew a GIGANTOR crowd last night (though, as noted by superstar IPJames, a lot of them neither met the five feet tall nor the 18 years old requirement). (Though of those meeting the requirements, there was an awful lot of fangirl talk in the waiting line outside the venue centered around the cuteness of the bassist). (I'm just sayin', the rock star life maintains its aphrodisiac-esque qualities, even after all these years). (Beck, of course, insisted that her blood-relatedness trumped the shrillest of their admiring screeches). So, head on over to My-GPGDS-Space or check out some youtubeage of the band. Fantastic stuff; you want to get on now to say you knew them when. Or, just check out a little phototable below, a little visual reminiscence of the excellent aural experience that was last night:
