Yid Vicious:

Gosh, klezblog readers, it's certainly been a long time since we've posted an update detailing the goings-on at Yid Vicious Amalgamated Enterprises LLC! 
Well, to update:  Every member of Yid Vicious who went on the New York trip not only survived but ultimately returned home.  We at YVAELLC consider this an unprecedented achievement!
Unfortunately, the band subsequently lost their saxophonist Melissa to some sort of "Fulbright" scheme that's taken her to Senegal for the next nine months.  HOWEVER, another saxophonist, Matt, has agreed to fill in in her lengthy absence.  In a bizarre coincidence, this Matt fellow lives in the same house as Melissa!  It makes one wonder, How many saxophonists are stashed, willy-nilly, in various residences about town, stuffed into crawl-spaces and attics, frightening the mice with their wild jazz stylings.
In any case, Yid Vicious is lucky to have Matt, who is an excellent musician, join their ranks.  But one question [...]

This blog seems to do some strange cropping of video posts, so please to enjoy the next video installments on our facebook page.

A rainy day in Brooklyn. 
We passed an outdoor still life, a surreal entourage of stuffed animals joy riding in an abandoned car on a fenced in street corner.  The lion, sadly, didn’t make it – a casualty of too much carousing.  He lies face down in front of the car’s grill, languishing.  The dolphin, an unfortunate paraplegic with golf club prostheses propping him up, leans against the car, longing to get inside.  But the happy-go-lucky animals inside seem to be laughing cruelly at his fate as the outsider looking in.
Meanwhile, Spiderman and a disgruntled cow sit in lawn chairs discussing politics.  An abandoned desk remains unused – evidence of work left undone.
Did these creatures notice when Yid Vicious cooly strutted by last night, on their way to perform at Spike Hill?  Did they longingly look through the fence holes wishing that they could be as cool as this mysterious band from Wisconsin?  Did they [...]

Dateline: Dubois, PA
Yid Vicious has embarked upon the NEW YORK Whistlestop tour. Already, we've experienced the artistry of the Barkeyville Philharmonic Orchestra, and have engaged in frontier interstate commerce. 
We look forward to future adventures which will present themselves on the trail. 

At The Hitching Post (see photo) in Dubois, PA, we were fed what we were told was deep-fried alligator, and also a dish that combines the funnel cake and the frenched fry.  Finally, we had found a reason to live. After the funnel fries, there's really no need to travel on to New York, but we probably will anyway.  More updates to follow.    
We look forward to future adventures which will present themselves on the trail.
