Go to the place where everyone knows your name. Or not.


Ironically, this place is perhaps the most "private" one for me on the internet right now. Allow me to share something that a very dear friend of mine (who's also an ex) wrote to me not long ago.

I'm pretty good friends with most of them, the ex's, with the notable exception of 2,

Let's rock, Portland.

I'm off work tomorrow through Thursday and I was thinking of taking a brief sojourn to visit your delightful city. Tax-free goodness, lots of friends to see, and maybe I might check out the strip club scene in the process.

For dancing. eeek

It's been just about a year since I've danced. I'm gathering some stuff in the process, since I'm older now...

When I'm in Portland I just like to go to public places and watch people. I don't even know the names but names aren't important.

Portland is nothing without Plaid Pantries... and Burgervilles!

burtlo and I are trying to make the definitive Time Life collection (or at least a 2-disc set) of stalker/weirdo/creepy songs. Here's what we've come up with so far. Please keep in mind that I don't actually like some of these songs, but they came to mind.

I've omitted some of the Captain Obvious Choices like NIN and Tom Waits.

Nick Cave - Where the...

thank you! I hadn't heard of it, Ill use it for reference.

and that is a frighteningly accurate list. wow.
estrada:
You can't go wrong with The Beautiful South.

Heck, their debut album has these gems:
The Beautiful South - Song for Whomever (I just date chicks to break up with them so I can write songs)
The Beautiful South - I'll Sail This Ship Alone (Finally just going for self immolation after trying to get a girl back)
The Beautiful South - You Keep It All In (Hey, tell us about all those terrible things in your head; you'll feel better!)
The Beautiful South - Woman in the Wall (Spousal abuse and murder; This one is a fun drinking song because people look at you funny when you cheerfully declare: "But he only knew his problem when he knocked her over and when her rotting flesh began to stink". Oh those silly former Housemartins)

Choke:
I Should Have Kept My Eyes Shut - Daughter's point of view of spousal abuse; kid killed so she won't squeal

Miaow:
Worthless Lie - I love this song; it isn't really creepy but probably one of my favorite "not quite love" songs.

Really, the first album was perfect for this collection.

We're coming to L.A. in May.

Maybe for a week or so, hopefully.

There's a lot that I want to do while I'm there, and it involves a bit of eating. Yum.

On a random note, I'm not sure what to say. Oh, I know. Perhaps there are some people that should keep their mouths shut, lest any sort of mystery that they might have...

If I ever have a band, it is sooooo going to be called "Special Directive".

I *knew* you had an ulterior motive for coming back to L.A. in a few months!

Have you seen Shoot 'Em Up?? The sex scene in it is quite amazing. Also, Clive Owen.

Inspired by burtlo's journal. Here's a cover of Biz Markie doing Elton John's Benny and the Jets.
