And before that...

ok bitches: Don yer crash helmets and assume the position, cause i'm DJing hump night at the galaxy hut this wednesday, June 7th. I will be playing the kind of music that i like, which means sometimes you will cry in your beer but primarily what you will be doing is you will be dancing.

Incidentally, the Galaxy Hut is in arlington, vagina. So if you're not in the DC metropolitan area, never mind.

The cool part is that for the whole month of June, the hump night DJs are donating their proceeds to buying the hut a Karaoke machine, for future madness. There is this like vague weird chance (hope hope) that i won't be around here when it actually happens, but whatever, i think of it as like, designing a cathedral you know? I may not be around to get off on seeing the completed construction, but I will go to heaven for the effort yes? Yes, Baby Jesus and I will be singing karaoke in heaven, ladies and gentlemen. I'm thinkin... i'm thinkin "Open Arms." Followed, of course, by "Fame," which will be prefaced by Baby Jesus (who, for the occasion, i assume will be reprezentin in the form of that dancing baby beast, maybe with a twisty sweatband thing around His head.. i think like purple and gold, cause of His majesty and all) admonishing the crowd, "You want salvation? Well salvation costs. And right here's where you start paying. In sweat."

Oh so also, my birthday is next sunday. Buy me shit.

Here is my favorite thing in my life at the moment: This Saturday the Dismemberment Plan played a sold out show at the black cat (and people were still way way way lined up when it sold out... i mean, who knew? I mean we knew i guess, but not on that scale) and shit, I have never danced so hard in my life, and but here comes the best part. They are about to go on tour in Europe opening for Pearl Jam of all.. pearl jams, and so Ann got two t-shirts made. One for "bees" (which is marc nelson and a whole list of fashionable people that is too long to list in this parenthetical's Metal Band) and one for Mr. Taste, which is me and Ann's band that I think i've mentioned before here that are going to play a series of shows with aforementioned Bees, but the deal is, we have had a grand total of one practice and I missed it because i was in philadelphia. And then our drummer went on crazy long tour cause he's in um.. burning airlines cause he's um.. J. Robbins. IS THAT NOT INSANE? And erik denno is our guitarist. Did I ever mention to you that I love DC? Ok anyway. So the point is, Thousands upon THOUSANDS of stoned Europeans are going to have MY ROCK AND ROLL BAND'S NAME, "Mr. Taste," burned onto their retinas by Eric Axelson. And we have had one practice. Which i did not attend.
