Whirlwind Week
Well, once again and almost a week with no post, but at least I had an even more busy week than last, so I feel less guilty.
I'm having a "small world" week. First, went to Pornaoke at the Pegasus Lounge on Wednesday with my friend Kelly. She was going with her friend Millie, whom I'd never met. Turns out Millie is someone whom I've known for over a decade's sister (and who I didn't even know had a sister). Bizarre. Also found out that one of Kelly's best friends, Marcia, is friends with Kelli K, whom I'm not exactly friends with (circumstance, not choice), but have known for a long time. And ran into Will there, who was nice enough to buy me a beer.
Pornaoke was interesting: people sing karaoke but, instead of playing the words or videos behind them, they play porn. Kelly and I were occasionally laughing our asses off.
Then Thursday, had to go pick up my tickets for the Go Gos (yes, I am a procrastinator). After that, decided to do some shopping, which I haven't done in a while, and happened on two incredible finds -
1) A book that was practically written for me...
Hardcore Zen: Punk Rock, Monster Movies & the Truth About Reality
2)...and a movie only the insane should see...
Jubilee
One of the strangest films ever made, but does it get any better?: A film about Queen Elizabeth I instructing court sorcerer Dr. John Dee to show her a glimpse of the future, albeit a surrealistic, anarchistic and nihilistic, punk-inspired one (the film was made in 1978). With sorcery, punk rock, appearances by Adam Ant, Siouxsie, Jordan (quoting Rocky Horror in the film with I myself prefer the song, "Don't Dream It, Be It"), the Slits, Wayne County, John Dee played by Richard O'Brien, and Little Nell naked, 'nuff said.
Friday night, went to the Go Gos with
darkwing2022 and
geodiaz, damn, they're still hot!
Saturday, got some buffalo-shrimp goodness at Hooters and went to Duran Duran with darkwing2022, one of the best concerts I've seen in years, they were phenomenal!
Sunday, spent the day jamming with darkwing2022 and our friend Tommy - damn, he can play!
Then today, as if I wasn't tired enough, GAVE BLOOD
I'm going home to expire now, if you don't hear from me, it's cause I died!
