empallin"ill steal some gas fix my motor put on my beatles tape and get you out of my head"
i think i am going to start assembling podcasts. i know this comes as no suprise to some of you but the suprise will be if i actually get any done. i figure that since i always want to share new and great music with people that this is the direction i should go. i would have to do it more from a directors/programmers chair since i absolutely cannot stand the sound of my own voice. never could. so i will either have to find a voice or make one with a good tts program. note to self: does audacity do this?
"i dont want to spend the rest of my days dreaming yesterdays daydreams"
i also think i am going to rework my cafepress store. i already have several new images uploaded and ready for usage. talking to mike about this it seems to be a full on go ahead. this is one of those cases where someone else is very activly involved in the process since he and i are constantly bouncing ideas off of each other to the point where we either forget who came up with some of them or neither of us can claim full creative input. i will try to keep you updated.
"where do you draw the line between a whore and a concubine"
those of you with businesses bands and such need to email me links and such since i am going to start posting very friendly links on a regular basis. there will be others thrown in for the sake of variety but most of them will be the same. i really need to write more and this will help force me to head down that path. maybe i will even go off on why i quit doing zines and why people suck enough to have caused me to get that pissed.
"i just want to say thank you for playing the way you play"
some of you may remember my excitement about getting to see x and the rollins band play live and in one show. well it was as exciting as you might imagine. both bands put on a great show and once again i was in the same building as exene (and a matter of a few feet away for a bit) without getting arrested. the best part was during x's encore when that other unknown band came out and sang back up on a song. so fucking cool. though i must say it was really sad/funny to see all of the people that left after the rollins band set. "it doesnt matter you all suck you dont know shit about punk rock"
"keep your eyes away from me leave alone thats what I need"
the really sad funny part was watching this girl that was there from arkansas try to stare me down. she was basically doing everything she could to get my attention without actually walking up and speaking to me. the point that i noticed she was doing this was when her and her friend were standing against the wall about 5 feet away from me and i saw her hand go up to move her friend over a couple of inches. however since i already have a so i figured it was better i not respond since i was there unescorted. and when her friend went to get them drinks and she sat there with her head leaned up against the wall still staring it closed the deal. "if you want to moan youll have to moan alone"
"no matter how hard you try it just wont come"
after managing to not get any visible eye reaction - only because i was forcing myself to avoid eye contact with this one - they walked back and forth a couple of time and then went and sat on the steps in front of the mearch table. facing my direction...not the bands. the whole time she sat there staring while her friend was telling her to go talk to me and generally just giving her a hard time. eventually she gave up and when they walked past me one last time she had her head lowered and wearing a really defeated look. i could help but look down on her with some pity and a frown.
"staring at the black spots before my eyes am I alive"
after so many years of unintentional practice i have learned to pick up what i can of conversations and lip and body read the rest. since this one looked interesting to me i was follwing closely. ah but you see the real trick is to do it with being caught doing it. the fact that i have damn good far-peripheral vision comes in damn handy in cases like this. the low light conditions only helped. and i will be damned if anyone is going to get in my way of see she by whom all others are judged. yes x was on stage while this was happening. so she had bad timing and bad taste.
"youre all shiny and clean ive seen you in my dreams"
now some of you may be wondering what was wrong with her. well nothing except maybe she was drunk. she would have to be to be showing interest in my direction. but as i have already mentioned i am so taken on so many levels. i would say she was 5'2" at best but more than likely less somewhere between 90-105 pounds short black hair (love. dye. jobs.) black button up shirt black patent shoes even i believe. and very very pretty. so yeah basically everything a guy could ask for in theory. but it was for the best that i not respond. aside from being taken once she sobered up she would realize what a mistake she had made because the are more reasons than there are words that you dont want to mess around with me. and if she was just looking for a one night stand than well sorry again.
"i had to run to catch you you always move so fast"
the thing is after she walked by with that sad sad look on her face i decided i should take to her and try to explain. because natalie and i had a coversation at one point about things just like this. so i called out but neither her nor her friend responded. and then i lost them in the crowd and did not see them again. maybe someday she will circle back around as peope are prone to do here and i will get the chance.
"this aint the tv talking to you its a friend whos gonna tell you what you can do"
the hair cut she had was very similar to a friend of mine in high school who managed to save me from an attempt. it was the other kelly for those who want to know. i was having a very bad mood and every intention of going home and snuffing it. i hadnt said that but i had said enough. enough that she cornered me for a little chat. which surprised me in general since i never thought she cared or ever would. anyway the part that stuck was when she said something along the lines of "you are a fan of [such and such] so i know you know the song [such and such] well pay attention to it." i really didnt get what she was saying so she spelled it out for me and quoted part of it too me "you deserve the best but its up to you to get it don't settle for less you know youre gonna regret it. and that i got. since it was said it my laguage. the evening when i got home i pur that record on that side and left it there. and didnt even think about my original plans.
"lets exploit rock and roll to it's fullest potential"
that is part of the reason that when i ended up at a party at the house of one the members of said unsaid band i was knocked for such a loop. part of me was all 'these are all some very cool people' and part of me was all 'omf"b"! this has to be a dream'. i am sure i made a complete ass out of my self. after i left for the long drive home i realized i had stolen something. and no you are not getting it back. dont worry it was only a bottle cap i had picked up off the floor. i believe i picked it up when we were cleaning up broken glass but i had been fidgiting with it after that. but i do think i was well behaved again being so close to point of resecue for me. and there really are not that many.
"we dont speak spanish we just speak food"
the funny thing about the party was i think it was the mellowest party i have been to. mostly quite and low key. except some heavy duty mario cart ass kicking. i think the point where it got loudest was when the taco bell arrived. as much as i love and live on bell i couldnt eat because my stomach was all knotted up from earlier events and current location. i think i need to clarify that this party was not related to the concert above except that x was a topic of converssation at one point. different day. different city.
"why cant you see you torture me youre already thinking about someone else"
but wait how do you know she was arkansas if you didnt talk to her?
well because they had walked in before and the guy at the door was talking to them about it. that is when they caught my attention originally. not in any special way. it just i watch people a lot and in this case i was paying attention to everything i could soak up. i had to be in full sensory intake to avoid complete overload. several times that night i was listening to two conversations as well as the band all at the same time.
"He is part of our generation Let us mourn"
now you its time for the trivia part of this sloppy mess.
1] what two song quotes do not be long and who are they by?
2] what song/band is referenced but not quoted exactly?
3] what christian slater movie features a song by such and such band that is quoted but unnamed in this post?
