King Day || January 15, 2007

In Dallas, icy/snowy weather is much like a celebrity--it doesn't show up that often, but when it does, we drop everything to make a big fuss, and then it turns out to be much lamer than the reaction would lead you to believe. True to form, this Great Dallas Freeze of '07 was certainly the weather equivalent of a Kevin Sorbo.

But in crazy Dallas town, the sun returns on our favorite holiday of the year, Martin Luther King Jr. Day--the most meaningful holiday that doesn't compel people to buy a card, a gift or a costume. There's not much in the way of local music that really nails the Martin Luther mood...though one of our favorite singles of last year, Money Waters' "Fuckery," comes close, so we're posting it. We doubt the Rev would produce a single quite like this, but we're sure he respects its look at a New Orleans that has already gone overlooked by most of the country. Plus...well, shit, it bumps. Happy MLK Day.

"Fuckery," Money Waters (mp3, 2MB) ... !NSFW! (in case the title didn't clue you in)
