Here’s a picture of the sensational masked rock ensemble The Goblins, not to be confused with Italian prog-rockers Goblin, the California metal band Goblin Cock, or the Serbian punk outfit Goblini. Somebody needs to start a Wikipedia page on these guys.

12.18.08Bombay Video: one stop holiday shop
Time is running out! Bombaby Video, on Devon Avenue in Chicago, is going out of business, and prices are slashed. The place is stuffed to the gills with unusual and fascinating CDs, audio cassettes, and videos from the Indian subcontinent and beyond. The exotic titles available here for another week or two are not likely to be found at iTunes or your local hipster record store (not to mention chain stores). Head over there with a wad of cash and do some holiday shopping. Say hello to Sujay, the friendly and charismatic proprietor, and then get some delicious Indian food at one of the many Indian and Pakistani restaurants in the vicinity. (Thanks to Liam for introducing me to Sujay.)
