i'm a couple of days late, but: Clover's second set is up! and it is really hot.

i was there man, before she was a cult star. i remember going to the philly SG burlesque show with her before either of us were members. glad to see her doing so well, and um, undressed.

you hil!

"but you haven't got an MP rick, you're an anarchist.."
"alright then, i shall write to the lead singer of echo and the bunnymen."

last night i drove about 100 mph after work to make it to the echo & the bunnymen show. the band put on a great show, they have a really full sound live i don't think translates well on their old...

i had a pretty nice weekend. i went to my folk's beach condo, ate good food, and chilled out.

i'm hoping to go see echo & the bunnymen at the t.l.a. this thursday, after i get off of work. still interviewing for jobs this coming week.

hope everybody's having a decent mommy's day!
peace!

today i'm off to philly. i'm going to do some south street shopping, and then a show later on at the pontiac grille. the headliner is HR (formerly of the bad brains), but the main attraction for me is this old ska singer who's opening the show. his name is eric 'monty' morris. i'm sure the crowd will be there for HR, but i can't...

update- today is the start of 'no t.v. week' apparently. i don't think i'm going to make it that far.. and of course the only reason i even heard of this event was through the tube. i used to never watch it. i only got cable a few years ago and the internet last year, but i'm so addicted by now that its funny. no...

what do you call an anorexic with a yeast infection?
a quarter pounder with cheese.

i went and saw danzig tonight in philly. halfway through the set, doyle took the stage. and all hell broke loose. it was fucking killer. i never thought i would ever see danzig perform those old misfits songs. excellent shit. for a far more eloquent (and probably more accurate) version...

i made the trip to baltimore last night in the middle of the snowstorm to see t.v. smith of the adverts. it was a really great show!! they did all the classics: 'one chord wonders', 'no time to be 21', 'bored teenagers', gary gilmore's eyes', 'bombsite boys', etc.

first show of the year for me, and hopefully there will be many more to come.

i'm off for a beach break. i'm going to ocean city for a few days of fun, sun, and freezing cold weather. but it will be great to get out of dodge for a while too.
