zradio

from now on into the forseeable future, you can listen to our radio set on philadelphia's zradio just by clicking this link. upon hearing it, we kind of fucked up a lot. because the zradio guys just bought us way too much of this stuff.


oh yeah, and apparently one of us spilled water on kevin's cd's. but i talked to him afterwards, and he's mostly just psyched that it wasn't urine.

for the record


conor from the canaries is basically the nicest dude ever. today he recorded our side of an alleged forthcoming mj23/canaries split in their house. let me tell you, it's a beautiful fucking house and we made a heavy fucking record. we got the sunn0))) bass tone.

and the dudes from zradio are also perhaps the most hospitable hosts that i've ever encountered. philadelphia is filled with people who seem to want to fight each other and generally 'not the most attractive people' as kyleXmurray says, but it's called the city of brotherly love for a reason, i guess.

today was the last day of michael jordan school. now we're going on vacation.

Pictures are Fun

We played at Courtland Land in New Brunswick last night and it was killer. Thanks go out to Tin Kitchen and Snake Vision and Eachother's Mothers and Satan's Fingers and the Hospital Bombers and all our friends who came from far and wide. I had fun, I hope you had fun too. I'll have pictures from that show before I leave for Euroworld probably.

These pictures are from the Massachusetts show with Snake Vision at Jack's House. I post them in hopes that everyone who looks at this page will be reminded of the warm, fuzzy times that came and went with the summer.







Michele M took those. Thanks Michele.
James took this one.


Mike Sheffield and I also have a hair metal band. These pictures are from NAUGHTY's New Year's Eve show last week.










Thanks to Arthur King for taking these.

MJ is off to Philadelphia tonight.
God help us all.

goodbye december -- recap bore-athon


this is my first post on this here mj blog. smoke em if you got em.


i took this picture outside grand central. all of mj had left for wesleyan except for ian and i. we would show up crunk'd a few hours later. we played the eclectic house with thedeathset who were really nice nerdy guys. we only played for a hand-full of people but someone was wearing a flipper shirt so it felt pretty alright.


these pictures are from uhall, a freshman dorm at NYU. alex lives here so we would have obnoxiously loud practices and piss lots of people off. mj practices usually piss at least one person off, it's kind of tradition. this was before we played micheline's. we were supposed to play with le rug but they bailed due to some issues with a driver. they are going on tour in january and they rule. it's like elvis costello meets bikini kill. yeah, so we ended up playing the show with donkey flamingo. everyone got fucked up, i had a really good time. joe's shows are always the best.


i took this picture of the trade center my last weekend in new york. we are all home now, most in new jersey, ian in chicago. i leave for prague on january 11th. subsequently, james and kyle are going to berlin and florence.


we have some plans before the 11th, hopefully they shred. regardless, it should all be a fun drunk time for all.

The Ghost of Michael Jordan Past





So I found these pictures in my room from one of the shows over the summer at Silent Barn, pre-kylexmurray and myself. Mad old school; you can tell by the general cheer and optimism radiating from James' smiling face, which has been replaced by distrust and loathing.


The show was (I think) MJ, No One and the Somebodies, Lidia Stone, and Necking.

If you like to get down, check out Artimus from Lidia Stone's stuff... he did a short DJ set after our Halloween show at the Ivy Mansion, which was super legit/funky/gnar.

See y'all in the '08, suckers.


i get so much done when i don't have anything to do. music videos coming down the pipe.
