VICE Kills Texas

Über-hipster magazine, VICE, has a surprisingly large presence at this years music convention. Their party schedule features Bloc Party, Death From Above, and the creators of [adult swim]'s Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

For some reason, we have an image in our mind of these parties being filled with drunk trailerpark residents with bad teeth and torn jeans, carrying jug bottles that say "XXX" on the side. Maybe this is because we've seen lots of pictures like that in the pages of VICE, or maybe it's just our sick little fantasty world.

What we wonder is why VICE would be having this big showcase without having The Streets playing a big role. Maybe we'll do some sniffing to find out if there will be a secret show. Or have they fallen totally out of style?

F.Y.I: The [adult swim] BBQ is at full capacity and not taking any more reservations.

Um, hey turd. Maybe Vice isn't bringing the Streets because he lives in FUCKING ENGLAND, and never tours the States for more than a week at a time. I'm sure it would cost a boatload to bring him over.

Unless, he's the 'Special Guest' on their Thursday night event? Or maybe it's a secret, unnanounced Chromeo show! that band would cause a riot if they had their name listed. Sickkkkkk!
