Weekends on East Broadway

Dude, don't they know it's Saturday?

Marshmallow Mar

Blame it on the rain? Right? I embarrass Alex. We all know this is hard to do, but I manage to do it. Despite checking the weather this morning, I left adorned in a white wife beater (unshowered). It rained. I changed into my five dollar galoshes. I poked out my stomach. I became a marshmallow. Moral of the story? Eat.

Oh yeah, lip sing. Excuse me, I need to clap my hands in the rain.

He better not get in my face

cause i will drop that mutherfucker!

i'm sold.

To Alex

My friend Alex is pretty broken up over the new Weezer single and who can blame her? The single is horrible and well, Weezer just hasn't been that witty wonderful depressed nerd rock band they used to be (Pinkerton...amazing).Anyway, I wanted to offer some comfort to Alex and let her know we still have the Blue Album and Pinkerton.

I'm President Charley! I'm President Charley! I'm President Charley!

Super Sweet Funeral, Super awesome

ok I'll stop after this one

wiggies

I've been in Indiana way too long and I've noticed a lot of dudes look like this.
Enjoy.

Geezers

I used to love this band, like mope over boys in high school to their tunes.
Anyway, I do have a soft spot for them and this song sucks, unfortunately but the video is funny.

sexman update

I love this kid, he's the cutest thing since puppies.
"It's such good weather outside, they should have released the game with shitty weather."

tee shirt of the day

INDY DAY 2
awesome dudes, I'm really really tired.

awesome indy

First off, no one walks in Indiana. It's unheard of to walk to the liquor store and if you're a girl you may get raped, but out here they call it "hollering"

This guy was set up off the side of the road, he was amazing, he also said that his Breast-o-meter did work and some ladies did try it out. Which is rad


Check out this dudes hair... it's amazing.

then check out the hat, so much radder.

Lesbians are aplenty in Indiana, so fucking great. I miss long beach already.

Great INDY shirts

My friend Mac and I used to LOVE finding great tees, it was definitely a hobby of ours. He would die of jealousy, but he's a fag.

Please see all the amazing tees.

INDY 500 SAT. update

Indianapolis boys are soo cute, mind you just the boys, once they get to 23-24 they start looking like fatties. Very interesting, land-locked people. Here are some pictures to get you through the day. I'm here for work btw. It's actually a lot of fun.

god today kicked my ass.

This made me laugh really hard, I know it's so fucking old but it's hilarious really. She's so much cooler than scarjo.

I Dated Your Mother?

Listen to Tom Waits!

Funny moments in movie history

Saudi Arai-bay-bay

Yeah they took it there.

HVW8 IS RAD

Whenever there is a party on Melrose I kinda cringe, one because they always blow, it's a bunch of freeloaders that go to all the "openings" see cheap. But, driving to Melrose sucks sometimes because of parking.

I went this weekend to check out the Joyrich sale and remembered why sometimes I like Melrose and why HVW8 is rad. Now if I can only remember where it is.

Lot 1 worst ever

I love living in my new spizot, but a lot of the restaurants opening up around there blow because it's baby portions "healthy", " light", "vegetarian" but really it's overpriced bullshit.

LOT 1 is the worst, they had the worst service and I felt it was really overpriced.
i get that echo park has a lot of hipsters with trustfunds, but please stop closing down the salvadorian restaurants that I can afford. 2 buck pupusas are good 15 dollar snacks not so much.

barragans sucks

But seeing Angelios excited about basketball makes me kinda stoked.

THE W STOLE MY VIEW!

I hate these fuckers, I had a view and by the time I am back to LA I will be staring into a slab of wall.
assholes, I really get depreched without natural light and also depressed without natural ice
and then that fag came by to say whats up

the waffle update

So Scott was in town and we went out for lunch. I wanted to update you guys on Calvin's weird eating habits, he ordered a burger engulfed by waffles.

At least he has a back up

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now, true Kobe did attempt to make a rap album but thank goodness he had the right people in his corner to dead the madness before it got out. There was a video but like 40 acres and a Mule you will be hard press to find it. Now Tony Parker on the other hand...

AIDS Walk NYC

I meant to post this Sunday afternoon but instead spent the afternoon bouncing from living room to bedroom between one and a half seasons of the Office and I admit, Brothers and Sisters. I’m so hip. Sadly, I don’t have the technology to DVR shows as I don’t have a basic cable/tv hook-up. I instead still have bunny ears only if the TV happens to be plugged in. It spends most of the year complacently sitting on a shelf in our hallway collecting dust. Perhaps, I’m far more advanced as I watch television on the Internet and have been for quite some time. Influencer, anyone?

Sunday morning, you ask. What did you did? I briskly walked a 10K for the AIDS Walk. My friend coaxed me into it. I arrived with my eyes adorned in red Ray-Bans (totally an accident). Despite the whistling group (piercing), cramped quarters when walking and annoyingly long talking onstage before the walk was able to begin, it was fun and the weather was perfect. I rarely venture uptown nor to Central Park so all in all, it was a fun adventure where I was also fed snacks along the way. After, I scarfed down a meal at Barrio Chino. (love that place!) NYC AIDS Walk, represent!

It's To Amazing Not To Be True

Soooo. Today I'm at my desk, daydreaming about what I would do if I won the lotto and this link pops up on my iChat. From the title I didn't know what to expect. Was it going to be a site about a girl's love of giving the max headroom? No, it was fucking this ...http://www.iloveblow.com/

Joke of The Day

paula abdul not drunk

I remember being in elementary school and having a crush on alexis tello, we were so cute, alex and alexis... anyway, this shit was hot. Hotter than playing 2-touch on the black top in san bernardino.

Downey did it again...

Stiller is stiller. jack black is blah.



but downey jr.... hi-larious

smell yo dick. aka the end of the empire

wtf?

this is a sure sign of the end times.

SYD

this just makes me sad for american music. who pays these people to make these songs? are they made from their sheer desire to spread this message? who listens to this crap? 

169 Bar - living history of the 80s

After the posting of a new dance night in Echo Park, I was reminded of one of my local bar owners down the street. Charles Hanson, formerly of the Vels (and the Normals) can be seen in the amazingly awesome video below. Yes, he still wears a hat. He was very kind on my birthday and poured a tasty drink or two. Perhaps, I'll have to take Make It Central Alex to the joint upon her pending visit...perhaps, a photo or two shall be shared of the one and only Charles.

FLASH DIDNT WIN THE MARATHON

New dance club in Echo Park

This is a new club in Echo Park I stumbled across last week. The shit is off the hook. Its crawling with hipsters and the dj throws down some jams. I'll post the location some day soon, but for now I don't want to blow out the spot.

Don't Fuck With McLovin

For a mere 16.99 you can help coke addicted actors get the bump they need.

Like A Fine Wine

Real Housewives of Orange County...hags! Those two old bags that do the morning news on channel 11...forget about it! All those old ass wrenches on Dr. 90210...not a chance. Sex And The City ho's aka The New Golden Girls--they couldn't hold one overused vibrator to the beauty that is Monica Bellucci and she's 43 folks.

BURNING STAR CORE

My wonderful friends over at Plastic Records are releasing another fabulous record.

Check out what the NY Times has to say about them

Burning Star Core

The young violinist and electronic musician C. Spencer Yeh has worked in noise-improvisation contexts, with people like Thurston Moore and members of Wolf Eyes and Hair Police. His own continuing project — in which he plays pretty much everything — is Burning Star Core, and “Challenger” (Hospital), the new Burning Star Core album, is noisy but often very pretty, anchored by drones. (An exception is “No Memories, No Plans,” which has no drone: it sounds like a brush fire in an empty gymnasium.)

It’s hard to get a bead on what’s making these roaring, overdriven, scraping sounds: not necessarily the violin, not necessary keyboards. The only clues are the credits given to other people (guitar on one song, harmonica on another) and the title of one dense and spooky but mellifluous track: “Mysteries of the Organ.”

I want to be French from Canada

I fall in love with her a little bit more after each new video.

Wider Than All Outside

Let me make this perfectly clear before I proceed; i do not know who this girl is, I was sent a link to a website that had these pictures and the title "Does This Girl Ever Close Her Mouth?" So, if someone knows her I'm sorry but damn, its to funny not to post.

An Uncommon Poet...Al Purdy

for your collection

and now we pray. to the mutha that is ...

north long beach car hunts

I love old stuff; not only because it should be destroyed, given to minorities, or shipped to a tiny island in the middle of the ocean

Poor people that can't afford stuff are funny, they should get a second job, god sometimes poor people are so lazy.

ay dios mio

I'm starting a cross collection, anything with crosses, it appeals to my inner Mexican.

LONG BEACH has funny signs

Smuggling Keys To The Shotgun Wedding

I never really listened to Remy Ma and Terror Squad was always pretty wack to me. Fat Joe is like that fat kid from Fresh that talked a lot but never really did anything. Anyway, Remy Ma bounced from the TS, went solo, shot her friend in the stomach over $3,000.00, went to court (lost) and now this morning she was handed a 8 year bid. The worst part, she was suppose to get married to Papoose (another rapper) right before she heard her verdict but her groom to be was caught smuggling a handcuff key into the court room. Love makes you do stupid shit occasionally. Here's a video reference to all you rap illiterate...c'mon you know the song, "lean back."

Wubba Wubba Wubba

I'm not gay but I used to watch MTV's House of Style (see post below) so I can appreciate the previous post so much that I see your HOS and raise you a Club MTV.

my uncle is gay and he was my teenage icon

He used to paint moles on me when I was a kid and now I have a ton of freckles so I am sure his manic obsession contributed to it.

Anyway between en vogue breaks and fashion shows, I watched this...

DUKE SPIRIT ON CONAN

saw them at the troubadour and got rejected by morrissey when i tried to dry hump his mexisexual leg.

National Geographic Heroin

I love junkies and national geographic

Ill be there since i missed his Marvel show. Plus, if i bring enough people, a certain painting with a metal-winged Archangel fighting En Sabah Nur (Apocalypse) could possibly be made?

Ready to go.

National Geographic

I give phil a hard time because he's all up on Mission of Burma and because he'll brand anything at his parties for 5 bucks and a Tecate but Myanmar is suffering due to a recent natural disaster.
Where the government will go from here is unknown, they have been closed off to the outside world for a while and although they do need the aid it will be interesting to see how much of the country will open up to foreign aid.
A lot of the children are malnourished, some are saying as high as 50% of the children are not receiving proper nutrition.
Regardless of where this is going or where you stand, NG has chose Myanmar as it's place of the week.
Peep it.

PAPER TIGER

The new Paper Tiger print is out, it comes in limited quantities and is available here

Artist Scott Belcastro rolls out this beautiful painting for us. A deeply personal piece, it is a statement of his inner self and his current condition as an artist.

A self trained artist from upstate NY, Belcastro has changed his direction after 10 years of painting, and has recently been receiving rave reviews about his uncanny ability to blend and mix colors and super fine detail.

Belcastro is working on shows for several galleries coming up including stops in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver and Miami. You can see more of Scott's work at: www.scottbelcastro.blogspot.com
