Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson


I saw Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson lst night and it was AMAZING. Favorite moments included, "i'm going to tell you how I feel now" followed by moody folksong, followed soon by chorus who rocked, "Michel Foucault would have an explanation for that but he's not born yet" followed by me booming with laughter thanking grad school for understanding that.


Also a highlight, was a song poking fun at art/songwriting, where Andrew Jackson and his girlfriend cut themselves while obnoxiously smearing the red all over each other in a hilarious spoof of emotionally intense metaphor:

"It's a metaphor for love

These aren't veins

Just the beating of my heart

This fever isn't real

It represents how I feel

My pain transformed into art"
