So I was at The Funhouse last night…WTF were you? Did I mention I had a hangover that could have killed a small (okay…a large cow-like) farm animal and I still made the scene? Well, not only did I get all the wicked shook out of me, The Earaches cured my hangover but also made my seat vibrate the way only REAL Rock and Roll can.
Paper Dolls are not just for girls. The fact that there are three Girls in The Paper Dolls only punches up the Rock Girl power a giant notch. A little bit Pistols, a little bit Rock and Roll, TPD rocked the Rat City Roller Girl after party at El Corazon.
Cherrybomb was also lucky enough to listen to some recently recorded “rough tracks” that were anything but…pump me up a big 7″ inch PD…I gotta have it…
Remember that Public Enemy song “Welcome to the Terrordrome”? Well, I’m gonna have that blaring all the way to Canada after reading this tidbit in The Progressive. Cause I’m moving to Canada.
My favorite Zombie killer still has me laughing after seeing his latest work, a TV spot for Old Spice. Bruce “Boom Stick” Campbell bangs out a Shatner worthy version of “Hungry like the Wolf” while 5 hot chicks (not sure if the chick who looks like Bai Ling is Bai Ling because she has most of her clothes on) wait to lunge at him at any moment. Presumably due to his Old Spice (now in a red penis shaped bottle for her!) body spray. Even more hilarious, at about 22 seconds Bruce takes his hands off the piano keys and the piano keeps playing.
Mommy’s alright indeed. First peice of vinyl to get a ride was “Some Girls”. I highly recommend this model from Numark as it’s got the USB hookup for your box and a sweet look and feel. I love it almost as much as my new Black 30 gig iPod. Almost…
Since Grindhouse I have been obsessed with the beltbuckle Jungle Julia wore in “Deathproof“. Hell, you don’t even really need pants with a beltbuckle this cool…
Story goes that Falwell died of a “massive bowel obstruction” today. I’ve never been so happy to spell the word Ironic. Especially since I suck at spelling. I’d rather that on my gravestone than “I was a Racist potty mouth and my ass looks like my face.”
The lineup for this is very Noisy indeed. Cherrybomb recommends the following:
If someone has their hand out, it’s not because they want to. Four years ago it could have been me. By the grace of Johnny Cash and friends and family that love me I am not. I am here and hoping you are still reading….all dates are in Seattle but NFTN also makes a difference in California. You can make a difference where ever you are:
Wednesday, June 6th: The Maldives (okay, so The Maldives are making some truly beautiful music. Think Bobby Bland; Sr. and Jr. On stage with Neil Young)
The Tractor Tavern

Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head
Neumos
Saturday, June 9th (based on venue and band names alone):
Triupmph of Lethargy Skinned Alive To Death
Pleasureboaters

Neumos
Would have had this post up on Saturday night but I’ve been sick…damn you Cute Lepers! Seriously though, The Monkey Pub brought another great Saturday night bill with The Cute Lepers (members of The Briefs and The Spits) and The Paper Dolls.
This was just the third gig for The Cute Lepers. Catch them next on June 1st at Jules Maes Saloon. Also, watch for a new 7″ from The Cute Lepers “Terminal Boredom/Prove It” from No Idea Records in June. Your ears will thank you. For the record, mine are still ringing.
Not to be upstaged, The Paper Dolls tore what was left of The Monkey’s roof off with a blistering set. When a chick plays a Gibson like a jackhammer it’s always good.
So this is the only place I can actually find a description of this new flavor from Belvedere (ask for Orange Blossom if you’re man enough). It’s amazing and should be hanging in a museum. And when I say museum, I mean hanging in my house. In my mouth. Neat on the rocks.
Of course, I can’t truly support this posts title as I suffer from a permanent form of drunken laziness. That said, it’s useless for me to apologize that my first post is my last post from my previous blog’s post/last entry. Cause it’s still funny. So screw you. Stay tuned…you know you wanna…
