December Will Be Magic Again

A few years ago I discovered Kate Bush's epic 1979 christmas special, aptly titled Kate Bush Christmas Special, and watching the YouTube videos has become a new holiday tradition. The problem is, I never seem to remember to post them on Cat Party! But this year I actually have it together and I am so pleased to share these with you. My personal favorite is Violin, do not leave this post without watching it!

Also, you may have noticed that we got a major makeover. We were feeling a bit like Tai from the first half of Clueless and now we're totally in Cher Horowitz territory. We added a few fun things to the sidebar: "Cat of the Moment" is pretty self-explanatory, "The Art of Jane Fonda" will showcase various artistic representations of my hero, Jane Fonda, and the "Hall of Fame" section will feature a rotating selection of people who inspire us. And I made a really creepy cat GIF.

Also, I will admit that in the past I have been extremely bad about returning e-mails and adding links. Those days or over so if you would like to be added to our blogroll please e-mail us at ilovecatparty@gmail.com or leave a comment on this post. I will also make a point of posting more frequently in the new year. Thank you all so much and have a lovely holiday!

Hello Furacoco

It's really convenient when your musician friends make music that you actually really like. Such is the case with my BFFs Sarah & Kyoko, who have recently formed a band called Furacoco. I highly recommend that all of you lovely people check out their myspace page and please do make a point of listing to "Hacking Them Down", which is totes my jam. It sounds like surfy, early B-52's-y spy music and whenever I hear it I get an overwhelming urge to don a vinyl catsuit and do my best impersonation of Maggie Cheung in Irma Vep. Is that weird?

I also could not resist posting this gorgeous photo of Sarah's that is currently on view at the Stricola gallery (across the street from Deitch Projects). It's part of an animal-themed group show called Wild Things!. There is actually is a cat in this photo, can you spot it?
