Over Inflated Sense of Self Importance
Today marked the 11th anniversary of Dwayne Gottel's death. I'll never forget how I felt that day. Annette Langley told me when we were working at BMG Records, and I was in total shock. I'll never forget the time I hung out with him as an aspiring journalist and how he introduced me to real rock n roll backstage blah blah. It was also the forst time I had met Ogre and Cevin Key.
It's feeling quite a bit like August today. Hot and soupy.
Saturday turned out to be pretty weird. After checking out a movie I stopped by some friends house for a big 2 keg party. It turned out to be a big surprise when not only were a lot of my good friends there, but Sinderella Pussie from Thrill Kill Kult and Candy XXX of Bozo Porno Circus were there and we ended up hanging out all night and into the early morning and I mean 9 AM early. I hadn't seen either one of them in a long time. And they both looked GREAT.
The party was a huge and the only thing that would have made it better would have been an appearance by Vera Blue.
Karlton was there and snapped some pretty decent pictures and I have some to share with you. I guess from now on any girls in the photos with me who are not ViXXXens should be affectionately referred to as Props because nobody would ever consider hanging out with me for fun. As a recent email informed me, "Everybody laughs at you behind your back and only talk to you to see what they can get from you and to use you for your connection."
Well, it does look like I just might have a few true friends out there.
My best friend from High School who I haven't seen since graduation called me at 830AM Sunday morning, to FUCK WITH ME, just like he used to back in the day. Old habits die hard. Ever since my recent break up he keeps checking in on me to see if I'm doing okay. Now, that's friendship.
As I await and photos Karlton shot on Saturday night, I received an email from my good friend Dale from Iowa. He had this to say of his lovely wife "You are definitely one of Elizabeth's favorite people and your overboard aversion to political correctness must fascinate her. I wonder why mine doesn't?" And if you knew Elizabeth you'd understand why that is such a compliment. So as shitty as some people get to go out of their way to email insults about my work, life, and lifestyle and to continuously try to bum out this ol jaded boy, it's friends like Dale and his wife that make up for them. Though I often wonder if certain people are so appalled by me, why the hell do they come to this page so often. It both shocks and bewilders me.
I worked on the I LOVE RICH press kit mostly all day. Their new album Year Of The Rich should be finished this week. We just need to get a photo shoot wrapped and then get the album out. If it's released by the end of Sept, it will receive Grammy consideration. And that is NOT a joke. The same goes for the new Ron Marks Subsonic album, which was just finished.
I was supposed to go meet with Jenna Jameson today but I was feeling exhausted from the weekend and too sweaty and tired to even do that, so I took advantage of my condition and spent the day working. Jenna willl have to be put off til AVN.
I guess this was a very un-Rock N Roll entry. But the photos DO rock, you must admit.
