i'm a huge fan of the movie that made bowling hip. but i just stumbled across lebowskifest.

tell me if I'm wrong but looks like the guy in the Aggression shirt is sporting a flying P tattoo

Dude, f***in' A.

I am actually here because of Will. I'm a big fan of him and his fests (been to three this year), so I was curious about the Pixies once I learned Will was a big fan. Pfeffa and DiosMio, a Lebowski Fest forum Achiever, recommended Monkey Gone to Heaven to download -- actually, Pfeffa recommended the whole Doolittle album, but are we gonna split hairs here?

Ooooo! There's a "best of" album with 23 tracks for only $10 on iTunes. That sounds worthy. Can anyone confirm, or uh, disconfirm that suspicion?

By the way, if a cluster of you all make it down to Louisville for Leboswki Fest 4 or Los Angeles for Lebowski Fest West 2, I will personally make you "I hate the f***ing Eagles" t-shirts! (Dunno if cursing is appropriate on this forum, so I thought I'd take 'er easy.)
klikger Posted - 09/07/2004 : 11:49:57
LOL, that would be so funny to see someone wearing. I think us FBheads should all take a charter bus to Lebowskifest.
FrequencyOfGlow Posted - 08/30/2004 : 09:45:38
this is weird. i was just telling my friend liz last night that I wanted a t-shirt of John Goodman wielding a crobar with the caption "This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass!"

I think the winter is going to be a real whirligig
tobafett Posted - 08/26/2004 : 09:42:55
Hey BLT,

isn't it a helluva commute to bowl in SoCal from the south sandwich islands???

:)

oh, you could stop by In-n-out tho....that's worth the trip!

I can't go to a lebowskifest, it's os! booooo!

I can't even watch the film 'cos like a dipshit I leant my DVD to some girl. booooo!

I can't even make myself a white russian 'cos I'm all out of milk. boooooo!

I might go and perv at buscemi pictures on the web though, I love donnie! yaaaaaaaaaaay!

(openly wept when he died, openly laughed my arse off when they choked on his ashes though)

I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out.

tobafett Posted - 08/23/2004 : 15:33:15
I'm an achiever...yes yes.

:)

I stand corrected. And proud we are of all of you,Tobafett & Pfeffa.

Ok, to rephrase my question without the subtleties, can someone knowledgeable about bowling culture confirm my friend’s experience that many bowling teams are comprised of a group of people who do everything together and one person, a virtual stranger, who keeps to himself?
BLT Posted - 08/22/2004 : 18:42:36
RIP Hollywood Star Lanes (the alley used in Lebowski) on Santa Monica Blvd. The city of L.A. took over the property to build a school. Dipshits.

I'm bitter about it. I used to bowl there once a week in the early '90s. I even took my wife there on our first date. Now it's gone.

At least they didn't take my wife.

tobafett Posted - 08/22/2004 : 16:36:17
you bet pfeffa...did you email Will, too?:)

he's a cool cat! (btw, he's the guy in the picture AND he's the cofounder of lebowski fest)

anyone else thinkin' about going to Louisville next year? carpool!:)
n/a Posted - 08/22/2004 : 15:29:16
There's a lebowski fest? My faith in humanity is restored!

I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out.

hammerhands Posted - 08/22/2004 : 02:36:53
How many people on a bowling team?

By directly addressing I mean talks to and addresses him by his name, while they are drinking in one scene.
tobafett Posted - 08/22/2004 : 00:53:31
yup...he's the narrator and is telling the story so he knows who the Dude is.

tell your friend he's out of his element
hammerhands Posted - 08/21/2004 : 23:42:27
Cowboy directly addresses Dude, "Dude..." he says.
tobafett Posted - 08/21/2004 : 23:27:44
nope, sorry hammer--they don't know one another...The Stranger is only a narrator.
hammerhands Posted - 08/21/2004 : 23:18:37
My friend pointed out to me that the cowboy's on the Dude's bowling team.

He suggested that this would be well understood by anyone who has ever been in a bowling league.

Anyone?

Lebowski's my second Coen choice, first place goes to Barton Fink - Clifford Odetts meets William Faulkner in a nightmare sequel to Rear Window.
tobafett Posted - 08/21/2004 : 18:19:48
The Man who wasn't there is one AWESOME flick....dark comedy/noir...they got it right...I LOVED that film...

billybob turned in a helluva performance!

the dvd is worth it for the haircut shots alone:)
twist Posted - 08/21/2004 : 00:26:52
Well that's like, your opinion man. Just registered as Brother Seamus. I lived in Panorama City in '91 with Ralphs and In 'n' Out handy. Now I live in SW Massachusetts near where the Coens went to school for a while, there's a barber shop nearby a lot like the one in The Man Who Wasn't There, 3 stations, 2 barbers, one talks the other doesn't. What's next?
tobafett Posted - 08/18/2004 : 09:57:26
those are good burgers!
Jose Jones Posted - 08/18/2004 : 07:59:39
i was just in LA for the first time in my life, and i made a point to go to Ralph's and In N Out burger. good times.
this is our concern, dude.

Will just emailed me...It IS a pixies tattoo...mark one up for me!

think the pixies would play lebowski fest? bet they'd do an awesome kenny rogers cover!

I got buddies who died face down in the muck so we could enjoy this little forum here...
klikger Posted - 08/17/2004 : 01:13:16
I think I'm gonna make the drive to this next year. Sounds like great fun. White Russians and rolling. :)

Looks like the number four to me, but let's call it a pixies tatoo so this topic can belong here. Not that it wouldn't anyway. Great site, we should all celebrate all things Lebowski. I got a Nixon bowling poster for 10 bucks! You're being very dude, dude.
