On September 24th, my band was in a horrific van accident. We all survived, but some of us were left with injuries which have greatly affected our lives. After spending time with a wheelchair and a walker, I left the hospital & have spent the past two months walking with a cane.
Scotland Yard Gospel Choir Some SYGC members are performing in their punk band Me + Z tonight for free at The Whistler in Chicago!! Here's a note: Hey guys, Can't wait to see you all later tonight! I made special programme/pin/demo sets, but they're VERY limited. So come on over and ask me for one!! (I'll be djing from 9pm until Me + Z play at ...10 and then I'll be djing again after). Lurve, DJ Elia

For all of the talk in recent years of the death of the album as digital distribution has become the norm and every listener is now their own DJ and programmer, the album nonetheless remains the dominant way we measure a musician's creativity.
