~~~~no kidding, right????? i was watching that, too.
(good sound..hate the vid with all its continuation of
the sex sex sex stuff, but like his michael jackson
high vocals nice melody sound) and i kept seeing that
shirt and thinking...what is that? why do i recognize
that? and then we were at a local venue's yearly
benefit show (part of the proceeds went to help
alejandro escovedo's battle with hep c), and we were
discussing the pages legally necessary (GAH!) name
change to the redwalls (again, if anyone doesn't know
the pages, check them out. you can now check them out
at www.theredwalls.com). i was saying that not only
do i not like name changes for the confusion they
cause, but i rarely like the new name that gets
chosen. like evelyn forever's name change
to...BILLIONAIRE BOYS CLUB, i yell. ding! the light
goes on!! and i make the connection to my silent loop
of wheredoiknowthatname wheredoiknowthatname??? which
in all honesty, i can't believe i didn't barrage my
roommate with as we watched MTV at 2am. so.... long
story eventually short... anyone got the low down?

~~~~~tell me about it....i rocked my ass off, and
thought...this seems odd, but sort of usual, i guess.

groupietee to tallulah tonight. i am currently wearing
