It'll be interesting to watch the park slope parents (no doubt with their young toddlers) reaction to deerhoof. Here's hoping they walk out and go home to discuss their kids elsewhere. Families suck..

Hey! If it wasn't for families, YOU wouldn't be here!

I was surprised: only 4 kids in the entire audience! Big contrast to Beth Orton nursery on the hill last week.

I'm a Park Slope parent and I think Deerhoof are fabulous, as do my little rugrats. Go find something more obscure to use as a demarcation of your social and cultural distance from my bourgeois, unhip stereotypical personality type.
