Remember this? Don't miss the party train!

I think Flight of the Conchords just may have suckled at the teet of the Gap Band.

MEE-OW! Those sweaty, ever-so-sweaty leather pants ...

Party On

It seems a shame to knock the Phallic Phrog out of the top spot, but the people demand party pics. Go here for the family-friendly version. HIA is where things get a little blue.

OK, I can't stop myself:

It's a Tractor Hoedown!

Allegedly this is the final year for these square dancing tractors after decades of performances at Yankton's Riverboat days. I can't believe that they didn't start training wee lil' garden tractors to take over for the next generation of this pagentry . (Thanks to Lance at R-Pizza for the video footage)

Aging Hipsters Party All Night Long, Become Accutely Aware of Joint Pain

Dateline: Friday Night, 9:00pm to 1:00am, Vermillion.

USD's hometown was once again of scene of aged debauchery as academic hipsters formerly known as Poison Stream visited the Friends of the Eagles Club. Early reviews were tepid, as the band insisted on playing "dance" hits such as "Biko".

As bemused revelers looked about in confusion, one was heard to observe: "I don't know. The drumming is okay, but it doesn't seem right to dance to a song about racial hatred and murder . . ." More downbeat numbers followed, causing much muttering and snide slurs against the band's ability to "rock hard".

But then the aging party-ers got more than they bargained for when up and coming youngsters the Breakout Boys hit the stage. The OTA attendees soon realized that maybe they weren't able to keep up with the kids any more.

Then, to add injury to insult, the Band formerly known as Poison Stream decided to "rock out" for their final set with their covers of "White Wedding" and "Folsom Prison Blues", leaving the more elderly concert goers no choice but to continue rocking, despite being gradually let down by their aged joints. Library worker R. Abeln was heard to exclaim, "Man, my thighs are killing me! I'm going to be feeling this tomorrow!" At least 2 hepsters were reported to have to thrown their necks out during the performance.

There was some small comfort for two of these older party girls as a late night visit to all-night grocery store HY-Vee saw them being addressed as "two hot, sexy dames". This compliment (coming from suave soon-to-be high school English teacher, Justin Walker) almost made up for the fact that they were repeatedly passed up by young men during the night due to the fact that they were surrounded by young women.

Early reports this morning indicate Abeln is indeed 'feeling it" and is taking Ibuprofen for her knee pain.

Wild S.D.

Since Mully put out the call for images from exotic locales, I thought you might like to see a wedding dance in the wilds of Howard, S.D. Vogue-ing among the farmers:



Observing the use of farm implements in wedding celebrations:



Note the tribal dances:

The other main activity is leaning against pickups in the parking lot, drinking beer out of coolers and shootin' the shit. These traditions are unchanged through history and are passed down from farmer to farmer. Quite exciting to observe them up close!

Renee and Katy Really F-ing Rock

Hey kids -- Just saying hello and hoping you are all well. Spring done sprung today and we have some gore-gee-us weather going on.

Renee, I, and Lee, Lindy, Annie, Marcia, and Laura -- our lovely Vermtown English Dept. cohorts, recently attended a live musical performance by "Poison Stream" -- the band made up of USD English professors -- and they provided us with much music for to rock. They rocked with a few originals as well as covers ranging from Cracker, the Cure, and Johnny Cash, to T. Rex, Janis Joplin, and the Beatles.

They have a FOG machine, people. That's how much they rock.

And while Poison Stream did rock, I cannot say that they rocked harder than Renee and me. We REALLY presented our rock. Our rock was somewhat untouchable. We kept rocking after the band stopped playing, people. Such is the potency of our rock.

I hope that when certain Floridians come to visit, they will have the opportunity to rock with us. But be warned -- our rock can be a little intimidating. We just really, really f-ing rock.
