>> Poor little Village Voice music critic just can’t seem to master L’Enfant’s design for D.C., gets lost on the way to 9:30 Club and misses half of last night’s Air show. Bwahahaha. The diagonals don’t form a pentagram for no reason.
>> Congratulations to local rising stars Le Loup for getting signed to Hardly Art, a new label under Sub Pop “focused on offering quality records for people to enjoy”. You’ll learn more about the band and their rapid success when they’re featured in this month’s Three Stars series. We have it on good authority that the band’s MySpace page got 40 plays within the first five minutes after that article went up on Pitchfork. Good on ya, guys.
>> We keep hoping the new TMZ-D.C. content will appear on the site one day soon, though we don’t think this is it: The owner of Green Leafe Cafe in Williamsburg has been threatened by fans of the bands My Chemical Romance and Muse after they fell ill with salmonella poisoning shortly after eating there. Since then, cafe owner Glenn Gormley says he’s received numerous death threats for causing the cancellation of several shows on the bands’ tour.
>> The good news: A local Domino’s Pizza manager won the award for “World’s Fastest Pizza Maker” at the Domino’s Pizza’s Worldwide Rally in Las Vegas, completing three large pizzas in 49.1 seconds. The bad news: All three pizzas were from Domino’s.
