I just finished watching (re-watching) "924 Gilman St: Let's Talk About Tact and Timing..." a film documentary by Jack Curran, and while I wasn't moved to write an overly critical review of any sort, I did have some thoughts and observations to share.
The first thing, and I really want to make note of this before forgetting, is that Ian Mackaye has one of the most spot on observations about Gilman, which comes rather late in the film actually, and is directed to the filmmaker himself. He b...

Forget the war, forget the enviroment, forget that Obama danced like Whitney Houston on the Ellen show. Forget that shit, but what's really important is this steroid scandal that is blowing the minds of absolutely no one.
Go read Jose Canseco's book from a few years ago. That about sums it up, and instead of apologizing or trying to act all pissed about this latest blight on the pock marked face of America's favorite pastime, we should all just say, "So what?"
Players, owners, and so...

Cheers!

Last night was not what we expected it to be. The Saturday night before Halloween and we were on our way to a RIBZY / WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES show at bar in Crockett, CA.
How does that happen?
It could have been cool you have to admit. What were the other options? Cover band night at Gilman? Sounded interesting, but no. Snake's B-day show at the HazMat? Snake kicks that party up a notch every year, but in the end it's Pyrate Punx, version 2006. That means that along with some cool punx t...

I finally have a new zine available after what seemed like forever, for me especially. I'm still in need of more distribution, if anyone does one or has any leads. Desert Moon handled the last couple of issues, which means that I'll never get paid for one, but also that I have many more boxes laying around my small East Bay pad.
This new issue has the band stuff (bands we like and support), show stuff (shows we book or helped to book, and support), interviews with interesting people fro...
