Movable Hype 3.0 Recap
Last night's Movable Hype was a great time, thanks to everyone who came out and to Nick Catchdubs for deejaying. And a special thanks to all of the bands. Really amazing night!
Oh, and David Bowie even showed up(!) He sat upstairs in the balcony with a baseball hat on and clapped for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.
Stay tuned for the next Hype which will hopefully be taking place in August/September.
In the meantime, we feel it's our duty to tell you that you MUST see Ghostland Observatory again (or for the first time) while they're still in town this week. These guys are so amazing and we're pretty sure we kept hugging them and telling them so last night.
Dates are listed here, and here are the NYC dates:
Ace of Clubs
11:30 pm. June 22, 2005
9 Great Jones Street (3rd Street between Broadway and Lafayette)
and
The Delancey
10pm. June 23, 2005
[Brooklyn Vegan has more on the show, as does Austinist editor Ben Brown - who has been travelling with Ghostland on this tour. Above photo of Aaron of Ghostland taken by "us". Brian V was also on hand documenting the night and you can see his photos here.]

Mr. Bowie always gravitates to the most interesting people. First thing I noticed about Live8 was the absence of Bowie. He knows it's much preferable to hang out with the gothamist than bon jovi and sting.
I missed David Bowie? dammit! I was too busy bumbling around the place to notice. I have to pay attention next time!
All Bowie seems to do lately is attend shows. What a life! I want a Ziggy Stardust reunion NOW.
I know it's been said many times before, but seriously, get yourself to Ghostland Observatory's show. They were fantastic!
Not as good as Brian's set, but more picture action to be found here.
