i am stoked

four wows

carl craig
supermayer
dixon
basinski

ithought it said four vows but it would not have been wrong

i will see u will u see me

remember when barbara morgenstern said she spilled sugar on her keyboard? that was cute.

shanti get the hell up here

she is darling and we get to see her TONIGHT!

yes shanti, get the hell

calexico's this weekend so i bet jasmine's driving up. i told him to catch a ride.

see, now someone's thinking smart

i wonder what kind of terrifying, asbestos-smelling, concrete-crumbling firetrap we'll find ourselves in this year

lol

it's called the church of bass btw

920 elliot ave W ?

i can't even picture.

by the homeless park and the place i first went to a rave

they sold warm beer in orange juice bottles
i was 17 and stoked
somebody let off a gun in the other room so we left

that must be the place then

paid off the back doorman to let us in, to skip the line. i tried "fifteen each?" but he said twenty, same as the front door, right into his pocket.

god i fucking hope it's not the same place

it does look like it's a block away

i am hoping COB will be like our dream bar in that deco building across from staples on that same street.

see the smart doorman would charge more for letting people skip the line

aww, our dream bar. it's good to have high hopes but realistic expections. i'm planning for something along the lines of the place where we went to the after after after party in berlin. you know, the place that smelled weird and where everyone was totally strung out at 4 p.m.

only more frightening.

but of course this will be better because DIXON!

god i was thinking about that berlin place the other day cuz i saw Zip mentioned somewhere. despite the zombie disco afternoon scene with everyone piling in the bathroom, i have fond memories because that doorman told the first joke i ever got in german.

the full name is the transcendent church of bass.

apparently

you were talking about that place the other day!

give us SCOOP

or more aptly stated, give us THE BAD NEWS

any earthquake over 5.0: UR DEAD
have to snort speed upon entry
only rum is bacardi
cigar lounge, no cigarettes please

barbara goies on at 1145 tonight
tujiko noriko at 11
jahcoozi goes 1230-145

yaowza latenight

our lxy and barbara morgenstern had a moment

no homo

jahcoozi girl with trumpet WOW u are great that was beautiful

good first night

decobel

lingbert+basinski=NIGHT WE WILL REMEMBER

sole repair so so so beautiful beautiful beautiful

love miss cutiepie purple tights wearing noriko and our little laugher BarMor and hottie jahcoozi trumpeteer

YAY that was super fun well done decibel crew!

but o my aching head!

i mistakenly thought will basi was at the triple door. my fond imaginings of folding myself into one of those big booths with some food and some drink and some multimedia lullaby: dashed.

it's just as well i might never have left.

ok let's get this rolling again, k?

the memory of the cream cheese hot dog (apparently a seattle specialty? i never knew!) is saving my soul. i know. it sounds awful but it's so good.

william basinski in a jumpsuit

AND we had a good cab ride!

still lolling at the photo of the old, bearded, turbaned middle eastern guy on the certificate, and the young, clean-shaven, bare-headed black guy driving. what?!

(i'm just gonna keep going till i run out of coffee)

that was the first time i ever rode in a van-cab.

first i couldn't get the door closed, then i couldn't get it open. i suck at vans.

oh my god that dumb guy in the smoking "lounge" asking me twice "what's in your cd player when you wake up in the morning"

using his bedroom voice, no less. or something like that. jesus he was so dumb.

"what moves you? what's your passion? what do you do when you're not working at... where do you work again?"

god help me, if this is the kind of attention i get then i wore the WRONG dress.

him and his cabbie philosophy

oh yeah! i got my whole drink spilled down my front! that was miraculously not completely fucked up!

okay one more and then i will stop with the self-indulgence:

that girl who crept out of the ivy like she'd just been born: "where am i?" said she.

she was all kinds of awesome: obviously totally disoriented and tripping but she was pithy and witty and she stood there on that dirt hillside like a motherfucking mountain goat in her little dress and heels.

u should never stop

a lot of funny things happened

(dixon's) set-up was on the dance floor not on the stage

i did not know this! um, why? does he always play that way? closer to the crowd, part of the people?

so many girls on drugs tottering on heels

i remembered another one:

the guy trying to get cuts in the bathroom line for his girlfriend b/c she was maybe gonna throw up, and then trying to chat me up while she stood hunkered against the wall with her hand over her mouth. what the fuck, asshole!

the best part of the spilled drink was the girl who got some on her and hollered "Somebody just PEED on me. that is not cool!" and then when she found out it was just liquor got all friendly with us

using his bedroom voice

i liked how when you told him he didn't know what the fuck he was talking about he sincerely said "beautiful...and a quick wit!"

(funniest night in recent memory, so thanks for your indulgence, friends)

i haven't thought about supermayer tonight for more than a few seconds

how did i forget about the girl who thought the drink was pee?!

when she was assured it was drink not pee and we started to move away, she sang out, "NICE MEETING YOU!!"

now. time to move on.

fax!
flying lotus!
mike monday!
supermayer!

we both got tomorrow off or we'd be screwed.

gonna be another fun night though probably not as peopled with silly-sillies as last night. and please no drinks down the front. and even though they are very disgusting, at least there are lots of bathrooms at neumo's.

i have been waiting a long time to see michael mayer

more like william BORE-sinski

no i was in2 him for probably...20-25 min, then i gradually lost the plot. but yeah, like we said, i probably wasn't in the right frame of mind for that kind of thing.

lingbored

lol @ teutonic fashion

"here's what i'll do: shave my chest, then get an oversized v neck tshirt with seagulls on it. sehr in mode."

i missed superpitcher's vest/tshirt combo but that's probably ok

you missed his scarlet neckerchief, too, huh?

i wonder if i will fully recover my hearing?

i am prepared for the answer to be no, so experts, give me your worst.

i'll not cry because it is a fair price to pay to feel my hair whooshed by the speaker during baxendale's 'i built this city'

hearing will be back. lol neckerchief

to continue to get the negative out there, and over with, i gotta say

wtf @ sole repair owner

not as good looking as sarah silverman
not as funny as sarah silverman
10x bigger bitch
arguing with me

you don't know your own fucking club, girl, if you think turning the lights up halfway through the night is a good idea

i mean seriously

oh yeah one more lol from saturday night:

church of bass doorman "We prefer that you have ID." prefer?

she was horrible. and she was wrong. and how tragic is it that she made me never want to go there again? (xp)

yah fuck giving her any money

found this afternoon, in ballpoint on the holy-mother-bowling-instructions:

decibel ends when i tell you to shut the fuck up

i am afraid it might be a quote. are apologies in order?

missed fax
did not like flying lotus
missed mike monday
loved supermayer

warrior queen?

also, CLANGOROUS

"DIS 1 GO OUT TO ALL THE REEEEAAAAALLLL MEN IN DE 'OUSE"

missed mike monday

bald dued withh shoulder bag spinning in sole repair was him

he wasn't as good as he was supposed to be

oops maybe i was so distrait over that horrible woman i forgot what we even did.

oh yeah warrior queen! she was awesome!!

no, now that i think about it, i didn't ever know that was mike monday.
