i'm always stoked to see friends get press. even when the papers really have no idea what my friend does or what s/he's all about. take for instance, today's feature on marxy in the la times. clearly the assigned staff writer didn't completely understand her subject and didn't offer much in terms of content. alas. free press. and the la times no less. can't complain. and marxy's only 26 so he's got eons ahead of him for good write ups.
in the mean time, keep a look out for a pending HOC interview with marxy -- my adopted little brother, musician, wordsmith, and resident expert on japanese youth and popular culture. if you want to peep his musicial talents, purchase his cd, néomarxisme I - kyoshu nostalgia. if you're not ready to commit, you can hear a free sample here. it's very good, i promise you.
