It's been unseasonably hot here in Calgary over the last few days. Yesterday set an all-time heat record. Driving across town in the middle of the afternoon yesterday, I overheard this song on CJSW. Not suprisingly, it makes me think of New York. But so do heat waves. In part this is because when I was in New York doing research for my thesis, Tune In, Turn On, Go Punk, the city was in the middle of a late summer heat wave.
It also doesn't help that the heat wave theme turns up in a lot of New York-based movies, such as A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints, In America, and perhaps most memorably, Do The Right Thing.
