Yes the phrase “More Noise Please” was inspired by the song of the same name on Steven Jesse Bernstein’s brilliant CD Prison.  If you haven’t heard the song or the CD, get yourself a copy – well worth the $10 if only for the sheer weirdness of it all.  Basically spoken word poetry set to music by another Seattle resident Steve Fisk (from Pell Mell among others) Prison is a blast.  I stumbled across SJB on the Seattle compilation Sub Pop 200 and myself and my friends became entranced.  This was back before the days of FREE Internet my friends – so we ordered the CD by sending a check through the mail.  Crazy.  I still have some of the Sub Pop coupons I collected somewhere in the closet.

So yeah, Prison, get it.  And I guess this is what this blog will be about in general – stuff I got that you should get or perhaps steer clear from.  In general… noise.
