i saw boobies!
a recap of saturday's events:
chapter one: the beginning
went over to The Apartment to fetch Jacques for ze rock...he called Brad to see if he wanted/was able to rock w/ us...he agreed...i stopped by work on the way, grabbing a Flyer first, the schedule was already posted and i was scheduled for friday night...that's when the Bad Brains show is...doh! i shouldn't've procrastinated...i can prob'ly switch w/ someone for that night...hopefully...i also checked the Flyer for when the Anal Cunt show is and put in my note thingie to get that night off...then we hit Brad's...
chapter two: at the record store
we first swung by Lastchance...i asked about ordering Wire's Peel Sessions...hopefully they'll be able to...and while there i bought: Ornette Coleman: The Empty Foxhole...after i bought my cd Brad directed me to this cd which was used: U.S. Maple: Talker...i went back and bought that too...they also let me grab this small Blonde Redhead poster off the wall...the Ornette Coleman album's the first one where he let his son (10 at the time, i believe) to play drums...it's fucking great...that pissed a lot of jazz guys off at the time...now i need one where he plays the plastic saxophone...
chapter three: bringing back the guitars
next we stopped at Consignment...my guitars were ready...so i picked 'em up...the guy said, referring to my Silvertone, that 99 out of 100 of those that he sees don't work...i guess it's cool that mine does and stuff...i played the double neck Danelectro...it only plays one neck at a time...i asked about replacing the switch...he said it'd be a major rewiring job and said some expensive price...i'm not sure if i beleive him...i don't see why it'd require more than just putting in the 3-way switch thing...i'll go inquire on a second opinion later...but if i can get it done, i'll prob'ly get it and stuff...eventually anyways...i also got some picks...
chapter four: a suburban shopping relapse
we made it back to my house but i remembered as i was pulling up that my mom had asked me to pick up some diapers for Lizzie (she's in heat) so i backed up and drug the gang to Target...there Jacques and i both picked up the new Radiohead (Amnesiac, of course) cd for quite the reasonable cheap price...i got some diapers...i also got a new toothbrush...nothing else of any interest, really...
chapter five: ROCK
we rocked...i showed off my new pedals...they rule...then we did this noisy Jesus and Mary Chain-esque jammin' for a little bit...that was pretty cool...i think i might try to work the bassline i came up w/ into a song...then we were standing around like "i guess we should write a song or something"...and then it just happened...just fucking around i immediately started playing this bassline...and this song just happened...it fucking ruled...Brad was on drums, Jacques was on geetar, and i was on bass...i'll say it again, it ruled...it sounds (so far) kind've like a cross between Joy Division and Wire, w/ a bit of Bedheadish indie flair...i was trying to be all Peter Hook and was actually pulling it off for the most part...it was pretty rad...quite proud...so it looks like The Family Ghost is actually turning into a real band again...Brad talked to Keith and he apparently wants to join too..."fucking sweet" is what i say to that! also Jacques and i started playing "ICB" by New Order (him and bass and i on drums)...i think we're gonna do a cover of that, as i'm actually able to play a reasonable approximation of the drum beat...it's a really fun song to drum too...
chapter six: sons of the night
Jacques was dropped off and i hung w/ Brad...Keith, Shade, and Mike ("Bob Dole") were there...we were gonna go to a party...Justin was called and he came over...we went...it was at this apartment in South Bluffs (this place downtown, reasonably swank...and security gated...right next to the ghetto, but right next to touristy-businessy downtown as well...) we didn't get enough info from Shade (we took two cars) so we just followed the cars in front of us into the gate after they opened it...and just drove around until we found Shade's car...luckily there was a sign in front of the proper building declaring "the party's here" and we were able to deduce which apartment it was...it was pretty dull for most of the while...the biggest complaint was of the "wang to tang ratio"...now i guess i should tell the story behind the party...one of the girls is going out of town and it's a going away party...it was going to be at some motel but she met some guy at a store or something and told him about it...then later he called or something asking where it was...she told him and he was just like have it at my place...so that's what happened...a bit fucked, but ummm...yea...after a while, the friends of this one girl say she's a stripper...and she's like "yea"...but then she's like "no"...(she went off and on for a while...) then the guys are asking her to strip...she wouldn't do it...and this little thing went on for a while...then Justin volunteers to take off his shirt if she'll take off hers...after a while he does...but she doesn't wanna strip...finally she's like "is it okay if i just flash you"...then she flashed us her boobs...so i saw some chick i don't know's thingies for the lesser part of a second...hrm...then the others were leaving...Justin and one of the guys who lived there (some big neckish kind've guy...i think one of the guys had something do to w/ the marines...) wanted to go to Ernestine and Hazel's, a bar a few blocks away...Brad and Keith decided to go w/ them too so i left back home to get to sleep for work in the morning alone...talking to Brad today, they stayed there for 5 min and then went to Alfred's, which was even worse...though Justin reportedly went home w/ some soror-whore...so i guess it served its purpose for him...or whatever...
a recap of today's events:
chapter naught: ummm...
helped move some stuff around the house...i alredy told you the story of missing school...blah...after a while i called Jacques...Justin W. was over there and i went over there...but Justin had just left when i arrived...bastard...i had brough Rap Damage and we watched that...then sat around for a while and went home, swinging by Wherehouse along the way where i purchased used: U2: Boy, Flying Saucer Attack: s/t, Tom Waits: Nighthawks at the Diner, and X: Live at the Whisky a Go-Go on the Fabulous Sunset Strip...i actually did have some restraint...there were a few other things i almost decided to get...but then i went home...yea...
