And like all their shows is was fucking awesome.
They played every single song they've ever recorded. They probably do that at every show, but this is the first time I've actually noticed that fact. If you've never seen them, you suck.

Mike Watt & The Secondmen also played. Which is the same as Mike Watt & The Missingmen except with an organ instead of a guitar. Watt's a cool live show to see. He's always puts a lot of energy into his shows.

Caught Chip Kinman (of the Dils) And PCH for the first time. COOL! Chip's 13 year old son plays bass, they have Simpletones-type vocals with Chip and two girls singing leads and trading off on backups, and they even have a chick on stage SIGNING THE FUCKING LYRICS!!!!

I'll have photos up eventually.

My lighting sucked, but she's in the background of a few.

i once dated a chick who was intensely hearing impaired. she was a bit crazy but she didn't mind my snoring. Sleep

anyway she liked punk despite the fact that she couldn't hear it very well. once she got really freaked out when a Samhain song was playing in my car, because it sounds really spooky. she was also intensely scared of dolls and didn't like hanging out at my friend's house b/c his dad had a vantrilequist dummy

on a side not is this elephant wearing a condom on his trunk?

No, it's just a pen shaped like an elephant.

BTW, when I was very young I wanted to be a ventriloquist.
I had a Charlie McCarthy dummy and books on the tricks of the trade. But dropped all of that when I got my Nintendo.

i used to want one of those things so bad. every year they had Charlie McCarthy in the JC Penney Xmas catalog and i'd imagine having one
