Inspired By the Rat City Roller Girls - Page 2

Maya wanted to go get skates as soon as the match was done last night at 7pm. They're expensive, but we'll figure something out because I don't want her to forget the excitement of seeing grown up grrrls playing hard and having fun. We should all be so lucky as the Rollergirls.

One quickie review - the new album on constant repeat for me this past week is the eponymous album from a British band named "The xx". Or the XX. Their music is as stripped down as their name. Their sound has a taste of P.J. Harvey mixed with a ton of other indie references that might not apply all covered with a drum kit and echo effects. Sound silly? Not at all. They're unique. And sexy. My rating - a solid B. Well worth a look-see.

Hope your own jammer is getting by those blockers with ease today. Rock on.

    Rat City Roller Grrrrlzzz ROOL!!!

    I am an old schooler. I miss the banked track. these flat tracks just don't quite have the impact. It just takes more money. Hope this new round of US Roller Derby takes off.

    Joanie Weston, Anne Cavello, etc. American heroes. some of the names out there now is a good start.
