PS - the new format o' the blog weirds me out

Now this place rocks.

My last trips there (gee, when was that. . . ?) ended up with

an out-of-print Glen Matlock solo record, a Philistines record [both real good]

three Ron Sexsmith albums I didn't have

Never Mind the Bollocks [Warner's pink cd]

a RVG remaster of Miles Davis Collection 1

Bach's Bottom, out o' print Alex Chilton cd

Not sure if it's the Tiven monstrosity or not

listened to them in my rental car on the way to Santa Monica, and in Hollywood.

Similarly, the last time I was there I bought a 2-records-on-one-CD by Harpo Marx and Emergerncy Third Rail Power Trip by The Rain Parade.

I'd like to get back to LA sometime before I die.


And you know what Hunter S said:
When the going gets weird, the weird re-format their blog.

I may be incorrectly quoting that.

I had a strange fantasy while driving around -- other men get "Boy's Week Out" at golfing resorts, or dude ranch's or at Super Bowl weekend.

I pictured some of our gang convening in LA for a week [out Friday AM, back Tues. or Wed.], with a rental convertible, going to idiot comedy shows, rock shows, and record stores.

Hookers optional. And discouraged.


I get to be Zach. . . .

This, I would love.

It could happen.

"Boy's Week Out" at golfing resorts, or dude ranch's

That's "dude ranches"

sheesh

I think this should really be eminently doable; vacation time being the hardest consideration. but our women routinely ask for, and get, a few days away with the girls, either in Outer Banks, or New York, or Baltimore.

OUR expeditions, otoh, are strictly business, and we deserve our gathering o' pals.

I would be in agreeance, if that word existed.

As such I will be in agreement.


Vacation time is possibly not at quite such a premium this year, as having lasted four years here they have upped my time by one week. So a long weekend of cocaine/strippers/gambling
(AKA Canter's/Amoeba/Largo) should not fall afoul of that stumbling block.

There are, no doubt, other stumbling blocks I can come up with, given time.

List o' participants / invitees comes to mind


Those objecting to strippers are right out

Alas, our brilliance lost forever. . . .

This situation is worse than the Tsunami and the Holocaust and the Rolling Stones
