im listening to the kills keep on your mean side. trying to get my shit together for the upcoming week. went to freds all day. cold ass beer. $2 schooners. a small joint in fort worth near the museum district. a curious mix of punks and cowboys. met a friend of mine from geffen. some dipshit asked if the burgers at fred's were any good. the waiter, also the cook, looked him square in the eye with a delivery that would have made rollins proud, "i'll make you the best fucking burger you'll ever eat in your life." indeed.
damn, im missing the fuck out of los angeles. didnt think i would so much. moved back in february. it hit me hard this past week. but dallas is great. texas is this shit. and i love my new gig. i simply miss l.a. and all my kats back there. plus, its hot as hell in dallas right about now. no worries. i should make it back out within in the month.
i have an appointment early in the morning with a band about a publishing deal. theyre gonna suck. i know it. but i have a hard time saying no when it comes to doing a favor for a friend. so it goes. then i have a conference call with fitty cent and his team at noon. always a blast. but i always need a translator for the slang.
50: cory, you famo, baby.
me: whats famo mean?
50 laughing: family
me: ah, of course it is. ok.
50: "you aight, you bumpin, man"
me: "uuh, ok. sure."
no need for me to pretend.
somehow i got mixed up in his world. but its cool. hes actually a great guy. friendly as hell. the funny thing is that im just more of a rock guy. this just worked out.
one band i did love over the weekend was the fiery furnaces. played at clearview. great show. theyre gonna make it. eleanor is fucking brilliant.
some bands in texas i need to set up meetings with on the fly: explosions in the sky, i love you but ive chosen darkness, sound team and riverboat gamblers.
cool news. crissy just took a new job with puma. in charge of the southern region. looking forward to the new puma swag. wasnt vibing on all that tommy bahama garbage. not sure whom does, actually. the puma gig also set me up with a dvd opportunity. looking forward to that. so much of my time is on dvd ventures these days. intriguing really. the change.
i should send some swag to the girls on the burlesque tour. but how? tbd.
late.
