Italian folklore once told that the only cure for a tarantula spider bite was to dance the most frenzied, inspired dance of your life or you would surely die a result of its hallucinogenic venom. Those bitten danced as if possessed, losing themselves in the feverish mandolin music played by villagers, and so the ritualistic Tarantella dance came to be. Another story suggests the dance began as therapy for disaffected female sexuality. Women who were perpetually numb from the complacencies of day-to-day...

Fuckin' A!

I saw Gogol Bordello after a 8 hour roadtrip from Canada, down in Seattle at Bumbershoot. At the end of the show, the guys came out to find my girlfriend and Ito get us backstage. Gave us all this free shit and offered a ride home in the tour-bus as a thanks for rocking out so hard at their show.

We're idiots.

We declined as to not piss off the other friends we had there with us... And long story short, the driver fell asleep at the wheel (because he's a fucking moron and wanted to show off his driving skills to one of the girls we were with, and he lied about being "fine to drive"... He neglected to tell us he hasn't slept for 3 days due to nerd-parties). We smacked into the meridian doing 180km/hr. Ripped the car in two. Took like like 14 hours to get home.

Fucking sucked.
