Tonight Sinderella Pussie and Steve picked me up and we went to check out a new band that recently formed called Loophole. They've known them for awhile ad Steve being a light tech has known these guys for 20 years. I was seriously impressed. They were tight, and the songs had amazing hooks. The bass player Bazil goes on stage dressed as Michael Douglas's character in Falling Down. I really liked what I heard. Also the drummer for Poi Dog Pondering came in and we rapped. I mentioned how I've seen them a few times and once was New Years Eve opening for Cheap Trick and I thought they played too long. Weird how much respect I get from people within the biz who actually recon my skills and what I do as opposed to the fucks that are wanna-bes or has beens who talk shit. Someday I'm gonna quit being Mr Nice Guy. Yeah right, I say that all the time. It's so good to be around successful and creative people again. As much as it sucks I just feel as I get along better to a group of artists who contribute to the entertainment society as opposed to window dressing. There's a big difference between a band member asking me over and over again if I really think they're good enough as opposed to some one bragging, "We're the best, we're the shit, you gotta come see us, we rule, we'll blow you away." And oh yeah, I know the fucking difference.
We went over to Darkroom and I'm gong to start DJing there and Sinderella will bartend on my nights. The owner was extremely cool and the lace is very chic and artsy. I'm looking forward to the new atmosphere. I think I'm going to begin club spinning again. I'm a lil older and a lot more wiser and feel I can make better decisions and resist the temptations of the late late night. Who need whores when my creation brings me some of the most beautiful and "gifted" ladies in America. Besides. I've finally discovered the love of sleep appreciation.
I have one more leisure day left tomorrow and the Wednesday it's rocking time again. Sinderella and I are going to Die Warzau's studio and then to Liars Club. And then the MINISTRY countdown begins. Taylor Kennedy gets in Friday our BBQ is Saturday and then it's the Autumn of my life. Rock n Roll all the time. And just wait till you hear about Alc O Holiday and the 10 year MK anniversary shows. JUST YOU WAIT.
VOTE!!!
