Things That Make Me Happy

I discovered Sympathy for the Record Industry in college. They were responsible for releasing "The First Session" from Hole, as well as the first two albums (self-titled and De Stijl) from Detroit garage rockers/media darlings The White Stripes.
Plus, the label's founder, Long Gone John, not only a. reminded me of one of my more idiosyncratic exes; and b. is a long-time supporter of one of my favorite art magazines, Juxtapoz.
So it is with great joy that I announce The Treasures of Long Gone John, a documentary about the strange charming entrepreneur behind one of America's best-loved indie labels!

Hmm... maybe I could convince somebody at The Guild that it deserves a screening!
