V.I.P.?

Some crazy guy came into my work and gave me a copy of the West Coast Leaf. In it are many ads from dispensaries, Lawyers and Medical Cards in Cali for as low as $60! One ad Caught my eye- V.I.P.'s (Very Important Pothead) Check out the site- here

Anyone else notice everyone and their Mom getting signatures for I-1068 (Marijuana Reform Act). Then I open the Stranger this week and see a Petition Signature form, in the middle of the Stranger! If this doesn't get on the Ballot- the system is totally rigged!!!

Gay Pride

So if you live on the Hill you all know what time of year it is- you see more rainbows, smiling faces, Dick's the list goes on and on. When you are a straight person living in a gay world, you have no choice but to join in the festivities- besides they have way more Fun!

So I am heading over to The Pony Club to check out this Event-
Saturday

http://www.ponyseattle.com/
Then going to see the Show at Wildrose.... I am bringing my camera and taking some footage at both events so stay tuned...

Big Mario's

This is "Mario".



A new bar/Pizza joint opening up right new to Cha Cha. Here are some interior pics-


I think this place might be pretty cool. My friend Dita Vox from Thee Emergency will be Bartending, and I'm assuming the other part of the staff will be just as cool.

Creepers


When I was a young punk rocker I had quite a few pairs of these awesome shoes traditional known as Creepers. Guys and Girls alike wear them- adding height to the short dudes is definatley a plus. I would probably never own another pair of the original style Creepers-

but these- YES!

I was like 14 when I first started listening to Subhumans- Mickey Mouse is Dead, The Day the Country Died, Subvert City,No. The list of good songs go on and on! This is an old punk band from the 80s. I have already seen them twice- both awesome shows, I definitely recommend going to this!

Groupie Sex

I ran into this website- groupiedirt.com

Its fucking hilarious! Slutty girls spilling dirt on all kinds of famous musicians!

The Go Gos
- They might have looked sweet in their videos, but these girls are not innocent. Back in their heyday, they made an after concert video with a drunk roadie. While the roadie masturbates, the girls are giggling in the background. Later in the video, Kathy Valentine shoves a vibrator up the roadie's ass when he is passed out on a hotel room bed.

Learn more about other bands like- David Bowie, Rolling Stones, Aeromith, Bon Jovi even N'snyc or New kids on the the block!
More cool pics here

Slash Attack!



This happened recently in Italy- a crazed fan runs from backstage during Slash's solo- that should have been me! At least he would have gotten a big wet kiss from me! haha!

and while were on the subject- I fuckin love this song!

Antique Scream




This band I've seen twice now and will be going to see them at The Comet this Tuesday (July 15th)

Antique Scream has a very Seattle sound (although I heard they are from Phoenix), post grunge, not quite all metal, just a cozy inbetween spot that gets you rockin. Singer Chris Rutledge has an awesome voice, combined with psych and blues undertones makes for an amazing band to watch out for!
Check out there music here
(I love the song, Sleep & Long Daze)

Nicki Minaj

Wow this girl is rad...

this-

to this-

I just feel inspired by her beliefs and ideals on being a sex symbol or actually being talented. She isn't just some hot puppet playing for everyone- note- funny faces!!!(read quote below)

"I don’t know where I fit in the spectrum of rap yet; I think now I’m kind of proving myself, but before, people thought I was more of a sex symbol or wannabe sex symbol. That’s why I make the goofiest faces; I don’t want people to think I’m up here trying to be cute. I’m trying to entertain, and entertaining is more than exuding sex appeal. I don’t think that’s fun. I don’t find it fun watching someone trying to be sexy. It’s wack. I’m trying to just show my true personality, and I think that means more than anything else. I think when personality is at the forefront, it's not about male or female, it's just about, 'Who is this weird character?'"

My Weekend


Shane- First Times Nils Forever & Dylan

Started Friday at a house party- First Times, Broken Nobles, and Greatest Hits Played. I haven't been to a house party since- well I don't even remember! It was super fun- lots of good looking people, good music, good times! It did finally get busted by the cops- underage kids running like cockroaches! I felt young again for a second!

Saturday I went to Madison Beach for the day- trying to catch some sun! It was so relaxing! Went on to some shows- and of course Sunday was my day of rest...hahaha

Corey Feldman & the Truth Movement


Playing tonight in Seattle at Studio 7 is Corey Feldman. His music is pretty bad- Checkout this review-
"At times, I felt as though I were listening to a Christian band whose roots came from the big hair days of rock music (there’s just a little too much God in it for me), but throughout the entire time, it’s clearly evident that this group is very much inspired by Pink Floyd"


I believe he is really in town for the Goonies 25th Anniversary in Astoria Oregon on June 4th-7th Check out all the shit going on here... its kinda crazy.



COL-POP Chicken

A place down the street from my work has this... what a crazy almost Eugenius idea.

BBQ Chicken on the AVe.

Buzzcocks

Go see this legendary band tonight WED JUNE 2ND @ El Corazon (I know- I hate that place too)

Julian Casablancas

So I stumbled upon this today- The Strokes vocalist and lead songwriter, Julian Casablancas has solo music. I knew that but actually never listened to it til today. I will say, its hit or miss with each song but def has a cool fuse of rock and 80s pop.


I also checked out Little Joy (out of LA- Shoegaze)
and Albert Hammond Jr. (NY powerpop)
they are both along these same trendy lines...

Afternoon Jams
