So how did your weekend go? Mine's went craptacular! hahaha It's a long story that I'm sick of telling, because I've pretty much told everyone I know what happened, but needless to say I didn't make it to the Pow Wow... Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I spent the weekend decompressing and dealing with all the detritus that came from the whole Pow Wow experience. Yaaay! In the end everything worked out, so no biggie.

I'm usually not the guy to get all into posting videos on a famous persons birthday, but this thing that Google did for Freddie Mercury's Birthday this past Monday was soooooo good I have to post it here just for posterity's sake. I fucking LOVE Queen and it's one of Life's great tragedies that Freddie is no longer with us. Booooooooo. Check out the video - it's rad! And I'd like to point out it's exactly 1:38 seconds long... heh heh
In case you didn't already hear it, the Iggy & The Stooges gig this Sat. was cancelled, making that Atari Teenage Riot gig all the more of a draw. I doubt that the cool people who were going to Iggy will make it to ATR, but you never know. ;-)

Hey! The Black Jetts are in need of a bass player! George, Paolo, I'm looking at you! hahahaha Chad and Tom left the band to pursue their other musical entity, and so the band got their original drummer Jay back, but now they need a bass player. If you think you have the chops, and I kind of think that having some big ol' chops on the side of your face might be a requirement at this point, then you should contact Roy at the band's Facebook page by clicking here and telling him you wanna kick out the jams, motherfucker! If you tell him you read about the bass player thing on onethirtyeight.org, you will get absolutely NOTHING for that mention, except for some ridicule and pity and being pelted by some sort of body fluid.

Speaking of fluids, Bobby Franks, Sophisticated Cool Guy Around Town, and ex-front man for Local Hardcore Legends Of Faith And Fire (<3) has started a cool little blog about something he really knows something about - Drinking! hahahaha It's called The Bar Hack and you can go to it by clicking here and reading the first entry, which is about him creating a drink and flavoring Rebel Yell whiskey with blueberries or some shit like that... Sacrilege! hahahaha

Everything is updated. I added a whole bunch of stuff but damned if I can remember what it is. The Shakedown gigs info, some Show Reviews, Videos, whatever. Everyone and their Mom is at Rancid tonight, and I don't know if that's funny or sad. Different strokes, I know, but Man... really? LOL Oh well. I'm gonna hit the town running, since apparently all the bands I currently play with couldn't practice tonight because they're all gheying off at the House Of Boooooo's... Homos. Hahahaha I leave you with this video of Guilty by Association performing their last song ever with Bingo Billy behind the drum kit @ Yayo Taco a few weeks back. The song is the title track from their latest release American Decay. Enjoy!
 
 
Syntax. It's kind of important if you wanna be a proficient writer. Nicknames are a sure giveaway as well, especially when you know the only person who called you by that nick name. The only reason why I'm babbling like this is because someone recently tried to virus me using a hotmail account and the name of someone I used to be friends with. Once I safely opened the e-mail, I recognized who wrote it by her syntax. What a strange thing to do. I mean, my virus software caught it right off the bat, but she gets an A for effort. I guess I'm that threatening to her... hee hee hee. Yeah. Anyways, it's Labor Day Weekend, and if you aren't stuck at home watching the Jerry Lewis Telethon, you should get out and do something. The weather's great, it's an extended weekend, what more do ya need? It's Pow Wow time in my neck of the woods, so that means it's time to 49 all night long and listen to tribal war songs and drink myself silly and smoke myself into a coma. Maybe this year I'll even remember to make some fry bread! LOL Next week I gotta take care of all my legal stuff that I'm currently embroiled in, but for this weekend I'm gonna forget all that and just have fun! I'd advise you all to try and do the same. The Gigs Listing page is updated, I added some Music Reviews of the latest by the Dayglo Abortions, Probot, Descendents, Of Faith And Fire and Manic Hispanic, and I added some more stuff to the Pictures page. Hope you like it, and have a great weekend!
 
 
Wowser! Was the show at Doggystyle the other night some major bullshit or what? Not only was it overkill by the Police, but the damn "revolutionary" punk kids that were antagonizing the situation were just as much to blame. To hear these dumb asses chanting What do we want? Revolution! When do we want it? NOW! ... I mean give me a friggin' break. The utter stupidity displayed by these so called "scene kids" was both laughable and irritating. People that got arrested deserved it, and I can only hope that Doggystyle can remain open and continue to give the all ages scene here in Las Vegas the support it needs. And I never even got a hot dog from there, dammit! lol Anyways, I gave it a write up... you can read it here, and The Loud Pipes Minister Of Propaganda issued a GREAT press release to all the papers... click here to read it for yourself. I've also added some cool pictures to the Bands Picture Page (Of Faith And Fire, Jesus Fuck The Sun and The Black Jetts), since I saw some of the members of those bands at the show on Saturday. You can click here to see those. Keep your eye out for a story that Jarrett Keene is doing on The Loud Pipes in City Life sometime soon, and I still have no idea what is going on with our upcoming release, you'll have to ask the others in the band about that. More Reviews... more Idle Gossip... more Pictures... that's what onethirtyeight.org is all about!
