The Blow

As you may or may not know
1) Yacht = Jona solo thingee
2) The Blow used to = Jona & Khaela
3) The Blow was always just Khaela at shows
4) now The Blow is officially just Khaela
5) Jona wants to pursue Yacht full time
6) I recently saw Yacht @ Studio B in Brooklyn
7) Yacht is playing a free show @ McCarren Pool in Brooklyn with Ghostland Observatory on August 19
8) Who knows if any of this is even true.

ugh, how the hell is he gonna play a venue that big? I wanted to kill myself watching him twist in the wind at Webster Hall.

Khaela, you lucky girl! You are free of this talentless pencil neck twerp. Run! Run as fast as your little legs will carry you!

I don't understand how anyone can like YACHT. I was at that show at Hiro where he stopped in the middle of his set to have a Q&A. What sort of overinflated sense of self-importance do you have to have to think a room full of people who mostly have never heard of you are interested enough? Just do your sucky act quickly and get off the stage. Or better yet, just stay in Portland.

I'm glad too. I loved the (B)low-fi Concussive Caress but found the increasingly busy electro stuff less and less enjoyable.

Yikes, Yacht was awful @ Studio B.

am I the only one to like Yacht? perhaps this isn't my fight...

YACHT has to be the worst name since AIDS WOLF.

He was adorbs at SXSW but yeah, that was in the backyard of a tiny bar. He might rock McCarren if he has dancers or something. Or if they get rid of that ridiculously ugly stage.

ok, i have to weigh in here. not only do i think yacht is poor, but i think blow is even worse.

why are either of these acts popular? the music is so boring and the performances are frigging awful.

sorry, i can't think of a more creative way to say "i just don't get it" with yacht or the blow.

in fact, they both boil my blood.

It's the Portland sound. Lots of bands like The Blow, lots of bands like YACHT. Some people like it, some people don't.

People who don't like it, typically, tend to enjoy being no fun at parties, stalking girls, trash talking their own parents and calling people on bicycles "pussies". In my experience, anyway.

It's not the Portland sound! It's just all that you're allowed to hear, apparently.
