Damn Girl, That Shit Is Deep Like the Ocean
Went to see CURLUPANDDIE last nite at the fireside. I met up with brooks before the show, and we took the L to potbellys, and then to the show. I figured since we planned on drinking, that the L was our best bet cuz neither of us would be in any shape for driving. I [...]
The Sox vs Cubs game kicked ass. A well scripted game. Sox won 4 to 3. I am sunburned on my knees and face. I am bright red, as red as my Rocket From the Tombs shirt that I have on. Now just waiting for Brooks to show up so we can go to Potbellies [...]
A punk rock show tonite!
CURL UP AND DIE AFTERPROJECT TAKEN @ FIRESIDE BOWL – 2646 w. FULLERTON – CHICAGO – 773-486-2700 3 BLOCKS N.E. of the BLUE LINE (California stop) Doors 6pm CURLUPANDDIE are mighty! Everyone reading this should attend. Hell, I might even buy you a beer.
Morons!
Why is it that people can’t read. You sell something on ebay, you put in the auction description, and in the payment instructions at the end in ALL CAPS that you do not take personal checks, and these shitheaps send you one anyway! Can’t these assholes read something in ALL CAPS that stands out?! I [...]
I hate you betty crocker
Sunday nite I was looking for something in the house to have for dinner. I came across a box of scalloped potatoes that had been in there for a very long time. I mean a LONG time! But it is boxed food, how can it go bad I told myself. So I made it. It [...]
Leage Finals and a Little Piece of My Youth
Last nite we had league finals over at TK’s house. I tanked, bad. I lost my first fight, then won the next, then lost the best of 3 match against MK, and that was the end of me. My playing sucked and I was disappointed that I didn’t even finish well in the B group. [...]
Life Sucks, Do Me
Heading over to a new Potbelys soon for an early dinner with some league brothers, then have league finals (singles league) tonite. That is pinball league for those who may not know what I am talking about. After league, I have to head over to Clown Ranch to take some photos of Destroy Everything so [...]
Looks like no stooges for me :(
Since I apparently have no one to attend the Stooges show in MI with, I guess I’m not going. The people I do know who are going already have tickets and since it is assigned seating, and I don’t want to sit alone as that is no fun, so no Stooges for me. Dammit!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIZ!!!
Today is Liz’s birthday. Everyone stop by and wish her a good one. Happy birthday Liz! BTW – did the mailman bring you anything today?
And another one! Damn!
Iggy and the Stooges 8/14 in Detroit, MI! Guess it is time to pay my dad a visit. And koz, dennis icon and Liz too! Who wants to pick me up from the airport?
IQ
TMG made me take some dumb IQ test on the net that she filled out to see if I would score higher than her. She got like 113, I got 124, confirming what I knew all along. I will admit that I was scared that she’d score higher than me. Now if I could only [...]
So many shows!
This summer is looking awesome for punk rock, here’s a rundown: 6/27 – Curlupanddie at the fireside bowl 8/2 – Down by Law with The Bomb at some place in Joliet 8/9 – The jerry/doyle experience (billing themselves as The Misfits), The Damned, The Dickies, DI, and Agnostic Front at the Vic. (Go only for [...]
Seeking Tim Gore!
Since I’m planning a trip to L.A., I figured it was finally time to give Tim Gore a ring and let him know I’m gonna be in town. Problem is, the phone number I have for him is no longer good! I don’t have a current address or phone for him and have no way [...]
I’m going back to Cali
In September I am going to LA for the Black Flag reunion show. I will need a place to stay for a few days, and someone to cart my ass around. Anyone able to help me out with that?! Anyone want to go with me on the trip for that matter?
Another one lost…
Rancid signs to Warner Bros. Don’t these guys ever pay attention to what happens to the bands before them. Ask Jawbreaker where a major label got them. Ask the Jesus Lizard, or countless other bands that were doing quite well on a big indie label and making some good money, only to end up in [...]
A nice song in the key of d
I can’t believe that I forgot to mention this, but I did a small interview with Dave Scott of Adrenalin O.D. for the spontaneous site and I put it up the other day. It also contains a vinyl discography as well. Check it out.
Bad Blood was indeed bad
Last nite’s WWE Bad Blood ppv was perhaps the most boring ppv they’ve ever put on. Splitting the PPVs is just a bad idea when you don’t have enough interesting shit going on on either show to fill a 3 hour ppv alone. Hopefully they’ll wise up sooner than later and have the shows share [...]
PromoGuy’s Monday Mission 3.24
How do you respond to hateful mail and comments? It depends on the situation, but I’m not one to ever turn down laying the verbal smackdown on some stupid asshole, and I will win. What sort of topics have you taken a stand on in your writings? Did it get the reaction you expected? What [...]
Rubes, Retirement, and Rolling Rock
Last nite I left work a bit early to take the L to potbellys on state/lake to meet up with Dennis Icon and his wife and son. They were in town for something and I met them for dinner. I turned them on to the greatness of potbellys. I then took the L back to [...]
How do these judges get their jobs?!
Spike Lee gets injunction against viacom to stop them changing their name to Spike TV. I’m shocked that some judge would actually do this and not throw the most assinine case perhaps in the history of the court, out of case. Proving yet again my theory that most people are dumb. I guess I shouldn’t [...]
Friday Five
1. What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to do, but never have? Here is a few: Get married. Go to New York. Have all the punk records on earth so I can finally have completion. Win the lottery. 2. When someone asks your opinion about a new haircut/outfit/etc, are you always honest? I think I [...]
Way to go Adam Ant
This was funny, and a little sad all at the same time. Former UK Star Adam Ant Arrested After Stripping
