Chromeo: A Show Review in 1 Minute or Less
Been too busy to blog about the Chromeo show last Sunday, but it was, as you can imagine, pretty fucking rad.

My friend Adam is visiting and managed to get tickets to last night’s Gogol Bordello concert. Holy hell those guys put on a great show — all 417 members.
