Too Much Love seeks to slay you this V-Day (singles friendly!)

• Holy crap!--my dylsexia did not serve me well on either comment.

• I am very old. And you're right, he's it doing for the kids. It's just different kids--plastic kids. And to "Twice" I shall do as you ask, mon ami. Carry on, kids!

• Helm, I did not insinuate that the dance night is itself counterculture. My point was more that every action (or in this case, holiday) as an opposite reaction. I had the same thought as you when I first went, and then I realized that I was being a jerk and sounded very old. The dance scene as it once was has disseminated in Minneapolis, and that is in part because of its cliquishness - no new kids felt embraced to start their own thing. But Soviet Panda is doing it in a different way, and he's doing it for kids who grew up on LCD Soundsystem (really think about that for a moment- it's crazy). So I really say hats off to this new collective of "hipster djs" or whatever you want to call it -- because at least they are all-inclusive and are excited about what they're doing.

• somebody call the Waaaambulance. Get back to work deskjob. *hearts*

• I know one thing that this "Too Much Love" thing is not, and that is counter-culture. It's become this decadges Barney's. A place where little frat boys and little soriority girls dance to jiggly-pop music and coo at each other. Times change and that is fine, but First Avenue on Saturdays is certainly not what it once was. I assume there will be comments to the contrary.
