UZ JSME DOMA
Look in the cupboard and settle for a can of sardines from when Allen Ginsberg was crowned Prague's King of May. Add lead chips from a flaking steam radiator with just a dash of ferlinghetti and simmer over post-Cold War heat. Sprinkle in fallout from Chernobyl while stirring with a broken broomstick. Scrape the elegant reek onto a scratchy Zappa LP (Hot Rats will do) and you're ready to eat with Uz Jsme Doma.

Spent
Jersey City quartet squeezed a lot of different sounds out of a bass, two guitars and drums by sharing songwriting and singing duties and switching instruments, creative cooperation which makes each song on their two merge records Songs of Drinking and Rebellion and A Seat Beneath the Chairs uniquely beautiful.

Guy Maddin's Archangel
Actor Michael Gottli, who portrays Jannings the Coward in Greg Klymkiw's production of Guy Maddin's Archangel, was seriously injured during a disembowelling sequence. In the scene, Jannings is accosted by three Bolsheviks who slice his stomach open. Mr. Maddin, seeking realism at every turn, insisted upon using a real bayonet. During shooting, the blade pierced through the false stomach pouch and tore into Mr. Gottli's flesh. Various crew members offered to rush Mr. Gottli to the hospital, but Mr. Maddin insisted that shooting would proceed as planned.

Extreme Zverina Team
I don't know who these people are, but because Zverina is an uncommon last name, I suspect we're related. This is what I get for doing a name search. Not since Ackroyd and Martin have you met such fun-loving Czechs. Free moonrock to person who explains Joke of the Week.
