Just posted to the YouTube, the video maker writes: “I’m not keen on the new luxury towers cropping up in NYC’s low-rise neighborhoods but there they are. I sped this up to make the movement of the elevator and crane more obvious on this construction site. February 2009.”

Because We Can Part II: The Cramps–Can Your Pussy Do the Dog?
February 5th, 2009 · 4 Comments
We are freaking idiots. This is what you call a day late and a dollar short or behaving like a print journalist. We should have posted this in the morning, given that Lux Interior passed away yesterday. One of our favorite memories of a show is a booze-fueled Cramps show in DC in 1978 in […]

This is about right for a post that goes up at 8AM. It’s the late Nick Drake’s Northern Sky set to some photos that someone shot. There was a time when we were very young that this song touched us so deeply that it always made us cry. Now, we can make it to the […]
