standup guys
one of the guys from saving abel was arrested:
Lead guitarist Jason Null, 33, and guitar stringer Brandon J. Danger, 21, were arrested on felony charges of forced oral copulation and forced oral copulation on a minor after performing at the Oracle Arena on Tuesday night.
A 17-year-old girl from the Central Valley who attended the concert with her younger brother told police she was lured to the band's tour bus after Danger asked her if she wanted to be in a rock music video.
Once inside the bus, Null pushed her face down into Danger's exposed genitals, forcing her to perform oral sex, she told investigators. She was allowed to leave after saying she wanted to stop, police said.
state of shock did a one off show with them in illinois. i think their single was about blow jobs. but imagine my surprise when their merch guy turned out to be... my ex. because you always expect to run into an ex in nowhere, illinois. that was a fun show.

we'll blast the stereo and we'll drive to madagascar
the blink182 reunion had me digging thru the archives the past few days. blink was probably the first band that i followed on a serious basis. listening to each album back to buddha brings me back to specific times and places. i've dug up some goodies, here we have "Stalking Mark Hoppus Through the Ages":
>
warped 99, my first. i won the tickets from y100 ( foreshadowing?). do i look dumbstruck due to the beginning of a life-long crush, or because i just had my face blown off after seeing h2o and the bouncing souls for the first time?? i had just turned 15, and it was all downhill from here.
fall 2003, dollar bill tour at the tla. you know that alley between imagine and the steak place where they line up kids before shows? yea i slept in that alley to get tickets for this show. i got THE LAST ticket too. so day of show we went back early to wait and mark came out and hung out with the kids for a while. tom was around but was kind of a dick, refused to sign anything or talk to anyone (more foreshadowing?) second to last blink show i ever saw.
fall 2006, +44 at the tla. total heartbreaker because i had to skip new found at the factory, but got to interview them for yrock with josh. this was when travis's wrist was all screwed up so he was out of his mind on, at least, painkillers,.... i was offered drugs from the BIGGEST BAG OF WEED I HAVE EVER SEEN by his assistant (who later died in the plane crash). After the show Mark came out and signed stuff for every kid in the place, and got some more promo stuff signed, "for the station".
i cannot wait for the new album/tour. i hope it follows the path they were laying with the self titled, and tom's craziness/ego/AvA influence is dialed down. hopefully they won't kill each other in the process. now all we need is a movielife and midtown reunion and 16 year old me will be truly satisfied

not without a fight
new found leaked over a month early!! i'm on my second listen and loving it so far. supposedly a return to form and i'd have to agree. kind of a mix between tip of the iceberg (which was already on it's way back) and the better parts of sticks and stones. production sounds pretty good too tho i don't think mark has a signature style yet. SPEAKING OF, blink reunion is all but confirmed. i'm actually excited to watch the grammys for once, between blink and mia possibly giving birth on stage, now somthing's goin on with green day? i'm predicting they'll be involved with paul mccartney.
also, another nail in the coffin of south street: guacamole is closed. i discovered this while drunkenly stumbling out of tattooed moms last night, i think there was some yelling. if it wasn't for moms and visiting lauren (i just like hanging out on top of condom kingdom), and lorenzos, there's really no reason to go there anymore. sad. i thought it was bad when they put a payless in the philadeli, but guacamole? seriously? now it's fucking t moblie and adidas.

oh and another thing
i got the original 1987 vinyl pressing of the straight to hell soundtrack on ebay today. i am SUPER PUMPED.
it was relatively cheap but more than i should be spending on anything right now... but oh well. it's supposedly in excellent condition... we will see.
still listening to 59 sound... for whatever reason it will not scrobble on last.fm; if it had you would know i've listened to it over 20 times in the past 10 or so days. still awesome. also loving the new loved ones still. trying to keep up with new music this year, as per my new years resolution. two tongues is OK. bemis is too happy for my liking, hope he doesn't get married and turn into skiba.
also trying not to get my hopes up too too much but blink are presenting at the grammys sun. the three of them in a room not killing each other is an improvement, who knows what will happen next. i could use a summer tour at the tweeter, i saw them every summer there for like 5 years, it was just expected, like warped. i wonder what the crowd would be like...

such a load
sucks for michael phelps.
at first a lot of his sponsors seemed to not give a shit. but now he's lost kellogs. and us swimming is suspending him for three months?? they give the reason that he is a role model. that is what gets me every time. dude dives into a pool and swims really fast. and that's just great for him. he never asked to be a role model. that is always the slippery slope i guess. people say once you're in the public eye you don't have a choice on how you're viewed, and that's true. but he never signed up to be a Role Model to all of america. plus it's not like he killed a box full of kittens. weed never hurt anyone. i also think it's really funny that his pr people tried to bribe news of the world to not run it by offering for him to be a columnist for three years. didn't they see snl?? dude can hardly read cue cards, i can't imagine his writing would be particularly captivating.
guess my box of michael phelps corn flakes is a collectors item now. i'll save some for next time i'm stoned, in his honor.
and just for old time's sake:
oh, and... i've def had no trouble sleeping the past few nights i got some perscrription promethazine-dm syrup AKA the stuff in purple drank. i'm gonna call lil wayne. party time.

get this now
i dunno if it's available to the general public yet but everyone needs to get the new loved ones ep, distractions.
the last song is a cover of the mescaleros' "coma girl". i'm pretty picky when it comes to clash/mescaleros covers, but this one is great. pretty mellow without being like a typical acoustic cover. amazing. i have listened to it 9 times today. if you need the download link, get at me. i hope they tour on this ep. i know dave's doin a show at the church soon-ish.
