Something Like a Phenomena Baby
Hooray! Tonight’s show so much better. People were clapping and cheering. It was all great, except for that one guy who kept screaming “MACHINE!” That was awesome when Karen said, “This next song is called ‘Machine’,” and then I’m sure the guy got all excited and then she said, “No, I’m just kidding. We’re not playing that song.” Hahah.
They also played “Dudley” and “Y Control” which they hadn’t played the two previous nights.
And in the “celebrity” department was Conrad Keely (aka–”the dude with the big head from …Trail of Dead”), Terry Richardson, and James Iha. I liked it when Conrad’s friend started saying, “Ohmygod! It’s Terry Richardson!” and then Conrad goes, “Who’s that?” Best.
Check out some great photos over at Who’s Driving the Bus?
Also, I just found these videos and pictures taken by The Triumph of Tired Eyes at the Maxwell’s show. Check out how enthusiastic the audience was.

No. “Best” is when Karen’s legs were all up on me while she has her way with the ledge of an amp. Nothing beats a $20 lap dance from Karen O.

Hi, I met you at this show and we went to the same HS. Nice work with the blog…and Karen O was hot.

[...] Some may be wonder, “Was this show ANY better than those crap-tastic Bowery shows you obnoxiously moaned about a few months ago?” Well it’s kinda like comparing apples and oranges…the venue/ experience/ sound was of course 10x better at the Bowery shows, but the crowd was lame in the sense that no one was dancing or remotely excited.

ItÒs simple but effective. They also do other genres. Adolescent poetry is worth a look.

so i figured the best thing to do is offer an inside look to the demon that drives this crazy train, and tell obnoxious anecdotes about my sister, since she’s not here to stop me.

What do you think? Not bad, considering it was randomly generated by the Postmodern generator using the Dada Engine

IÒve just joined the English Language list where teachers of A level English Language discuss stuff. They pointed me to this which is good fun.

These ornate brass lockbusters looked like they opened the door to a secret garden× or maybe Bluebeard’s worst room! It was like receiving a box of jewels.

I know He likes my “spark” and doesn’t want to extinguish that. But spark and disobedience are two very different things.

Sounds good to me. IÒll tell you later what theyÒre like on a rainy afternoon in a London park.

I encouraged Kiloh to keep her ears open. She has scared off burglars from their garden in the past.

Any particular reason you’d want to fly to San Francisco? IIRC, Swingers is set in Los Angeles.

Even with acceptance that it’s not my right to have it, that He can and will spill it elsewhere just to drive that fact home, it still hurts.
