thoughts on the new babyshambles album

and of course, my recent karaoke defeat. i can't shake the feeling that if i had been more dogged in my petition for the addition of patches, we would be going on a casino vacation. instead, we're gonna roll way deep to wild adventures. not really such a loss when i put it that way. plus, the extended tallahachicola network made a strong showing, made me feel good, made themselves more aware of how good people on st george island can sing country, and made tracks.

which is not how i intended to segue into the babyshambles portion of this post, but it works. ep was worried i would not like this album as much as the first, b/c it's more polished and produced. "more libertines-y" is a phrase i remember. it is more polished than the first album. but it's still ragged and spontaneous and sounds like a libertines greatest hits album to me. pete: you must stop doing drugs. even if sobering up makes you shittier at writing songs, you'll still be better than just about everybody else. also, that story about squirting a syringe at a photographer will still be plenty fucked up and punk rock when you're off the junk.

what to be for halloween

a slight moral dilemma, people. should i recycle a halloween costume from last year? is it okay? before you jump down my throat with a bunch of "of course not, slacker" garbage, remember i'll be celebrating halloween in a different town this time. does that change anything? please respond.

meanwhile, much has happened since my last post, more than you would expect, even. for example, would you have ever thought i would get to visit jimmy carter's hometown? do you even know where it is? of course not, slackers, it's Americus, GA.

oh, and guess what? you know my cool bosses i'm always telling you about? well they totally took me to atlanta with them and we all went to a latin food show. and someone spilled some liquid courage down my throat and i did open mic stand-up comedy. was it funny? of course not, slacker. it was funny looking. danny says he could have laughed at me for hours. i made up for it later that night with a heart-wrenching rendition of Patches by Clarence Carter. photographic evidence is still under review, but it is possible someone took a picture i can post here.

check this out, un-suspecting, i ate a pig eyeball! it tasted like the marrow-part of osso buco.

ooo! ooo! ooo! guess what else? this post is over!
