The English Surgeon

A good documentary does more to stimulate my mind than the best fictional films. The English Surgeon is above and beyond a spectacular documentary. Most scriptwriters couldn't dare compete with the sheer drama and uncomfortable tension filmmaker Geoffrey Smith captures in his real-life story of English neurosurgeon Henry Marsh, who became fed up with the inability of Ukrainian doctors to treat patients in need of brain operations and decided to do something about it. When a young Ukrainian man needs an operation to remove a tumor in his brain, Doctor Smith is his only hope for long-term survival. Unfortunately for this patient, modern luxuries are nowhere to be found in modern-day Ukraine and the only the way the operation can move forward is by using nothing but local anesthetics to reduce the pain of drilling thru the scull and scraping away the cancerous cells growing on his brain--In other words, doing the entire operation while completely awake and conscious. Beyond the unbelievable situations throughout the film, the simple message of humanitarianism shines.  In today's consumerist smorgasbord of a world we live in, it can be easy to forget the simple things that make being a fellow human being a rewarding experience. This film helps remind us. -Clayton Hauck

Matt Roan's DPM Birthday

The entire Crossfader crew threw down the jams this past weekend at Sonotheque in celebration of Matt Roan's birthday. Old pal B$ was in town from NYC to play, along with DJ Galvan, Kid Color and of course, the headlining 4-table set from E-Six & Roan, which I have to admit was a ton of fun. I think the last time I can recall moshing to a DJ set would be during a Floss set at Town Hall Pub. Well, that definitely happened again and coincidentally, this time Curt was in the building not as DJ but as club-goer. E-Six & Roan need to do more of these fun, not-so-clubby 4-table DJ sets! And next time, Matt, play my "Boom Shake the Room" request, please.
