More on The Beets
Members of the Beets, from Jackson Heights, Queens, play at the Brooklyn Museum
I just found out I’m allowed to post another track from that Beets album, Spit in the Face of People Who Don’t Want to Be Cool, so here’s one I like slightly better than the one I posted before. Besides, I forgot to mention that the parents of the two members who grew up in Jackson Heights, Queens (where cheap and delicious food of international flavors abound) were in attendance at the Brooklyn Museum show. Juan’s were notably excited and giddy. When they showed up he said, “Now I’m nervous”. I noticed the parents were wrapped in a Uruguayan flag, and there’s a Uruguayan flag on the back of their CD as well. You know who else is from Uruguay? The amazing Eduardo Galeano!
