The blog would like to wish a very Happy 21st Birthday to one Shannon McNamara. Keep on rocking Shannon!

Your Mom
So I know this guy who keeps bringing up a particular conversation I try to avoid since I have no idea how to respond to it. Apparently he's frustrated he can't find a decent prostitute. He told me he got one for $30 the other day but she "wasn't shit" and all he wants is some "hot ass in my bed."

The USC cheerleader squad came to my place of work the other day. Just thought I'd mention that.

Say Now Its Time to Ride














The Doughty show was fan-fucking-tastic. It was held at the Park West which is a cool venue with good sound. The place was packed but I managed to get 15-20 feet from the stage. At the end of the show Mike mentioned Old Style when talking about the sound guy. I emailed Doughty some pics I took at the show in hopes he would put it on his blog, but alas, he has not.

The openers were not my cup of tea though. It was "sad lesbian" music.

As is the tradition for when I go to a show, the Featured Flava is a Mike Doughty tune entitled, Tremendous Brunettes

Just to recap, my very awesome friends Heather and Meg came to visit me this past weekend, and we had a great time. We did a bunch of stuff while they were here. Those things were mostly centered around food, but thats just how we hospitality folks roll. It was really good to see them again. Thanks for coming girls!

While I Was Watching
It was a great show. He played mostly stuff from his new album, which was ok with me since I have that one, and only one other (A New Day At Midnight). I just wished he had slipped Be Mine in there somewhere. Oh well though.

Everything sounded great, the light show was good, the drummer was real fun to watch, and the Chicago Theatre is amazing.

There was also something about the place that compelled me to get a gin and tonic from the bar. So I did.

Jumpin Jesus Holy Cow
Tomorrow night I'll be going to the much anticipated David Gray concert at the legendary Chicago Theatre. I bought Gray's new album Slow Motion a few weeks ago and I like it. As is my trend for when I go to a concert, the latest Featured Flava is now a song from said album entitled Ain't No Love.

Is it me or does the beginning of this song sound like something from The Goonies.

Also, I just realized that's now two sad bastard songs in a row for the Flava. I'll try to make the next one more upbeat.

Fantasy Land
I'm pleased to announce one of my fantasy baseball teams, named "Roids" won first place. My other team, "Kathleen Turner Overdrive" got 5th out of 12.

As for football, one team is 3-1 and the other is 0-4. So uhh, lets just focus on Roids then shall we? We all know Barry has.

Buttress of Windsor
In celebration of my fantastic concert schedule this month I am officially renaming October to Rocktober! Monday night was the first of 5 (so far) shows I'll be seeing this month. Here is my review.

The opening act was some British band called the Kaisher Chiefs. They were terrible and made me want to stab someone. Their songs consisted of a lot of high pitched "Nana Naaas, Ooh oooh oh ooohs, and Lala lala laaas." Thankfully the show was a double headliner so they weren't up there for long. Next was Weezer. They played a few songs from their new album and the rest consisted of their classics. I thought they started off a little rocky but after a few songs they sounded a lot better. Certainly very fun nevertheless. Afterwards was Foo Fighters. I've never really sat down and paid attention to these guys so this show was pretty much a first experience for me. I must say they put on a kick ass show. They sounded great, the stage set-up was great, and the frontman was funny and had a great stage presence. He even mentioned the Cubby Bear as the first place he saw a live band too. FYI, The Cubby Bear is 5 blocks from here and is where I just recently saw Tommy Castro. Maybe I'll by myself a Foo Fighter CD.

In honor of this past show the latest Featured Flava will be a track off of Weezer's latest album Make Believe. This song is my favorite (as of now) from that album. I present to you, Perfect Situation.

K-Y God Why?!
Earlier today I saw a grundgy creepy old man buy a big container of KY Jelly, and I died a little bit inside.
