Interesting to see a piece on Eugene Hutz/Gogol Bordello in a recent edition of the Burlington Free Press.

It might just be the best work by Entertainment Writer Brent Hallenbeck I’ve ever read. A little late, though. 😉

Oh, and The Onion gave the film Everything is Illuminated — in which Eugene stars opposite everyone’s favorite hobbit — a fairly poor review.

The Mad Ukranian is the only one involved in the production that is spared direct criticism. I never really trust their music reviews, but their film notices are quite reliable.

Anyway, I should just re-name this goddamn blog the Hutz Report or something.

Casey Rea was the Seven Days music editor from 2004 until 2007. He won the 2005 John D. Donoghue award for arts criticism from the Vermont Press Association.
