"This was a weird, bad and disturbing weekend"

Dj TEARIN T in regarding Novermber 17th-19th 2006.

Tearin T was playing at a rave (UKspeak for Dj'ed party/club night) that got raided by the police and shut down. Not an illegal rave, not a warehouse squat, an evening of music, revlery and dancing in a fully accredited venue. In England, garage and house music are considered "black" music. As a result, the cops have been cracking down on parties in South London that cater to such crowds. As a South London resident and Dj, I think it's rotten baloney and un kosher racist insanity. If somebody gets shot or stabbed, close a club, make arrests, be on TV, if not...let the kids dance.

I hate cops as much as the next carrier of contraband, skateboarder and loud house party loving dipsomaniac...but don't do THIS. Although at first I read the line "Officer suffers severe finger" which is very close to my hand and heart. But no, he had to get a "severed" finger.

Here's a mix that Tearin T threw down on Monday as a response:

T STANDS AGAINST TROUBLE

Now...into the other bit of racist insanity, and the inspiration for this post's clevertastic title.

Michael Richards aka Cosmo Kramer aka STANLEY SPADOWSKI aka did this:

My first comment was that it never would have gone down like that if DARREN was there.

It was sick, sad and horrible. Doug Stanhope once dropped a half dozen stock comebacks on a heckler, punctuating each with, "I can go all fucking day asshole." I would tell Richards to take notes, if I was confident that he will work again.

That being said...well...he was amazing in his prime...so as Homer Simpson said about sideshow Bob's numerous attempts to murder his son: "What I'll mostly remember is the laughter." The key word, being mostly.

So, good night you hilarious, brilliant, backwards thinking, weak, foolish disgrace:
