GTFO: Emergency Mexican UFO…
Wendy O says “Hey Baby, it’s the 4th of July”…
I’m gonna be taking a few days off so don’t worry. I’m not going to rehab, or dead. Or, uh, in rehab. Again. I’ll just being doing things that might make me consider rehab for a minute or might have me praying for death at some point or another. Okay, I’m not so much trying to cultivate the rehab rumor as much as I am about surviving my upcoming bout with a ridiculously high alcohol-blood-content this weekend. All in the name of liberty, of course.
Got to be free…
Thursday, July 3rd:
Vince Mira’s Cash Cabin Sessions is out now.
Vince Mira
Can-Can Club
Cancer Rising
D. Black
Hell’s Kitchen
Friday, July 4th:
Hunter S. Thompson, Gonzo journalist.
Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
Harvard Exit
All signs point to go on this one. The trailer for Gonzo puts me into full-throttle in less than 10 seconds. I can’t wait. Hunter, guns and the 4th of July? The only way seeing this movie on the big screen could be any better is if it came with unlimited Amyl Nitrate and booze. I guess it’s BYOA on that one.
PBR, the King of Beers. Fuck that other guy…
THERE WILL BE BEER
Seattle Center Mural Amphitheater
Speaking of booze, There Will Be Beer starts today at Seattle Center’s Mural Amphitheater. It’s also a benefit for Pet Cross. Getting drunk and making a difference for animals = no hangover. It’s true. TWBB is also dog friendly. Excellent.
Be Under the Milky Way on July 4th…
The Milky Way
The Sky
On Friday, July 4th, if you’re far enough away from the lights of the Emerald City and it’s clear, our Galaxy, also known as The Milky Way will be visible to the naked eye. It will appear as a misty, sparkling rainbow above our North West part of the Earth. But since we will all be watching fireworks make some enormous carbon footprint in the sky, I say fuck the Galaxy, man. Fireworks are awesome.
Saturday, July 5th:
Vintage Rockabilly Girl with Cherry earings.
Highway 99 Route 66 Show
Highway 99 Blues Club
Rockabilly, Burlesque, Booze and Hot Rods. “Nuff said.
A real Mexican U.F.O. or Cherrybomb’s kitchen light…?
Mexican U.F.O.
King Cobra
A very good looking friend of Cherrybomb’s says Mexican U.F.O rules. I’m inclined to believe everything a good looking person says, aren’t you? Don’t lie and say maybe. Good looking people never lie.
Sunday, July 6th:
Thee Emergency.
Thee Emergency
The Comet
Everyone should have an official drinking shirt that looks that good on.
Looking Ahead:
The Maldives.
On Friday, July 11th, The Maldives, Seattle’s best damn Country band, and the equally excellent North Twin will twang you into the twilight hours. North Twin + The Maldives + The Sunset = you are there.
Glen Danzig. Do not look directly into Glen Danzig’s eyes. Seriously, it’s in his rider.
Glen Danzig will be celebrating Glen Danzig’s 20th Anniversary with the Blackest of the Black Tour starting in October. The blackness that is Glen Danzig hits Seattle on November 8th at the Showbox. Danzig’s shirt may or may not be involved in this tour.
Genitortures will celebrate HalloQueen in Seattle this year…
Finally, Genitortures will be at Studio 7 on October 31, bringing some competition for what is undoubtly the only live gig in this town on Halloween, The Sonics. Genitorturers (you have no idea how hard it is to type Genitortures when you’re drunk) have a new record coming out this Fall.
Now Get The Fuck Out…
