...I am so broke it's mesmerizing! I can't even afford to buy beer this weekend! I've been having so much car problems lately all my money has been going into that. Ugggh. So I've decided to hole up in my room, watch movies all weekend and drink codein as to sleep as much as possible. For food I shall eat spaghetti and frozen pizza.
Perhaps on Monday I shall use my American Express card to buy some beer. Last year's 4th was so much better. I spent a drunken weekend with friends in San Francisco. What are others plans?

I was alone...in my BIG BED

My friend's vet couldn't give them puppy valium until tomorrow, by which time the fireworks will be over. So we blasted the music real loud, which helped the dog some.

My best bud's dog was flipping out tonight as the fireworks went off for hours, poor thing was panting and freaking out. I hate to see animals in such fear.

While cleaning my garage I found a box of my old cassette tapes. I picked out G-N-R Lies and Talking Heads - Little Creatures. I decide on LIES first. I open up the case and LOW AND BEHOLD - X's Live at the Wiskey A GO GO. WOOOOO HOOO.

SKIN DEEP TOWN.

Need more BEER.

They played and they played across this great land
But the radio wouldn't their fine songs
So they packed up and moved to Wyoming



ME TOO! And it was a tape, too! We're so fucking old, darwin.

I found my X - Wiskey a go-go Cassette case the other day with no cassette in it. I am depressed. I was looking for it for the sticker that came with it (I never used it). No sticker and no cassette just an empty case.

So cool. Yeah, I had that same thought - 3 might be too much.

Damn! That is a shame.

We did the same thing. Although I wanted Velouria Allison which are more titles than lyrics. My wife won out with Autumn Moon lyrics from Zeppelin's Ramble On.


"Our Love is Rice and Beans and Horses Lard"



No kidding! Another thing we have in common when it comes to names, then! Cool.

aww trans been there done that.
soon it will all be a memory and you won't be counting days till payday.

not sure what we're doing. my boyfriend might have a gig, might not so things are up in the air (not an uncommon occurence in this household)

so i will either:
go see my boyfriend play
or
i will BBQ him a steak and me a salmon while we watch concert dvds and read/play scrabble/walk 4 blocks to see fireworks set off when it's dark
or
go to a friend's house because i dont' wanna drive two hours one way to go to a gig and spend all day in the car

Her solo stuff - how do I say it? It's OK. It has its moments. Especially when her ex
plays guitar.

Maybe it's time for me to burn you another CD.

I only have an older John Doe solo album. Which like you say is good but not the same. I rarely play it. He's got a new one out.

I don't think I would like Exene a whole lot on her own.

The only X show I ever saw was something like 1992 in UC San Diego gym. Not the best spot for a show but still fun enough.

They've got a new live album out, which I think is their 3rd live album. Seems excessive, but I do like the Whiskey one.

It's 3rd of July.

WTF?


How come we say Los Angeleez?
kathryn Posted - 07/03/2005 : 11:32:18
I did. I had six safety pins thru my ears, just as I did in the 70s in Manhattan, baby!

And I still wear my jack boots. Well, not in this hot weather, but I still do. I still dress the same.
It's pathetic how little I've changed. Except for the safety pins.

So you didn't see that show, huh?

Exene wore a cardigan....

Did they wear their safety pins, jack boots and razors? I see some of the teenagers bringin it back in OC.

They did didn't they.

can you swing from a good rope?
can you Mr. Grieves?,
kathryn Posted - 07/03/2005 : 11:26:25
I had a BLAST at X's "reunion" show in Feb. of 98 at the Hollywood Palladium.

It was so emotional for me, not just to see them on stage together again and to be near Exene, from
whom I took my sartorial and make-up hints, but the audience blew me away. All the old punks were out,
people in their 30s and 40s. It was great. Anybody here go to that show?

JHRP - X

They used to play the Whiskey and Starwood a couple of times a week. Exene is so cool.

That L.A. scene was very CBGB. There were so many high energy bands - Germs, Dickies, Agent Orange, Red Cross, Black Flag, TSOL,CJ's, Adolescents. East L.A. trio, garage band, "The Plugz" could rock. Tito Larriva was cool. Talked to him at the Cuckoo's Nest after his show there in like 81. What a great guy.

Anyone remmember Costa Mesa's own, Cuckoo's Nest. Saw the Ramones there, 750 people tops. They blew the roof off.

Transmarine,
I feel bad for your weekend man. Hope it gets way better for you.
Working so mine will be the pits too. Everybody partying except me - *begins pity party now* - wails, clenches teeth, zzzzzz.

Can you bungee from a good rope?
Can you Mr. Grieves?
