My Thousant Times No


I found this tee shirt which has the word “NO” written on it 1,000 times.  It was on sale for half price so of course I bought it! 

Last night was July 12, 2012 and I attended a w00tstock 4.0.  As a result I am now reading Year Zero by Rob Reed. And you can’t have it!

Although it was a good show according to w00tsock standards, I would have liked to see and hear a little more of Molly Lewis. Good thing that I attended the Free Molly show a few weeks earlier, see next post.

Meapless In Seattle Part Two


July 24, 2012 is a day that will live in history.
That's her name in lights up there on the marquee.

A few people were upset about the change of band, but they soon got over it. The audience learned to sing a Marian Call song about shark week. Molly really killed it with her rendition of "Poker Face". At the end of the show in a packed house there was a standing ovation.

These pictures prove that I was there. The people onstage wouldn't hold still long enough for a good picture and I didn't use the Edgerton flash unit.

A
UPDATE July 1 2012 There are some better quality pictures
Meap, Meap.
band was scheduled to play the Triple Door in Seattle and just couldn't make it, a fact which became apparent a year ago. Who else could be counted on to fill every seat in the house on such short notice? Molly Lewis was given slightly less than a year to put a show together. Probably because she had actually played the venue previously. here.

My Pool Table

This pool table has seen better days.

In case you didn't know, a pool table isn't made to hold up your full weight.

 Be careful when bouncing on a pool table.

Fled the suburbs to see @Girlinacoma at the Echo. Plex. As in nop. But where to park the SUV? As luck would have it, Echo Park is walled off for construction. Which means, I can actually park here! Otherwise I would still be driving around, looking for a parking space.  I love the Zone of Perpetual Construction! Nonetheless the park was walled off during the evening of April 27 2012 and I found a legal place to park on the street. End of sad story. (I never parked that close to Echo Park Lake Park ever, in my entire life! Personal Best! (high fives)).

After parking the SUV, while walking North along on Echo Park Avenue, I paused beneath a tree while an airship (i.e. the Goodyear Blimp) was passing by overhead. I briefly entertained the thought that I had crossed over to the other side of the Fringe universe. As I made my way toward the venue, the airship passed by a bunch of fireworks in the sky.

Although the airship, the lighted display, and the fireworks were ostensibly for the spectators at Dodger Stadium, I knew that these things were intended for my enjoyment alone. 
Eventually I arrived at the nightclub in time to hear, and sing along with, a few songs from PinataProtest. Driving around and finding a place to park took up an hour of time, so I didn't see the full set. Note to Yahoo Maps: Sunset Boulevard and Glendale boulevard is a bridge, not an intersection! Get it right!

The place is very dark inside, but I brought a flashlight with me. Girl In A Coma took the stage at Eleven P.M. (it is a night club)  and entertained for an hour and a half including a few solo songs from Nina Diaz. To begin with, I was carefully shining the flashlight onto the floor which got me from here:

To here! Cell phone camera works OK from close up. Blogger wants me to put a GirlInAComa

For some reason I had a really good time. Anyhow...


In the old days there was a vacant lot where we could park our cars. Nowadays, we can't even park in our own neighborhood. Once upon a time, we could park on our own parking lot on Echo Park Avenue. Our parking Lot on Echo Park was a vacant .lot.


Song Fu, "write a song for something that you lost and will never get back." I am changing the subject, here is a Song Fu HYPERLINK from " PROMPT #3 via AMANDA PALMER " "Write a song about the thing you lost that you know you’ll never get back. I’d recommend starting with an object & then possibly veering into the metaphysical. Any style you choose."   ",  and here's a song.

My Vacant Lot's Not Vacant Anymore
(Sung to the tune of Secret Love as sung by Frank Sinatra ) Frank Sinatra Music et. al..


Once I had a vacant lot
A place where I could park the car
Grownups took my vacant lot
They said they won it in a war

So I told a friendly bar
The way that drinkers often do
Just the way to park a car
And why the sober driver do
Now I tweet it from the lowest hill
I can't even log in to Tumblr
At last my blog's an open door
My vacant lot's not vacant anymore

Now I tweet it from the lowest hill
I can't even log in to Tumblr
At last my blog's an open door
My vacant lot's not vacant anymore
My vacant lot's not vacant
My vacant lot's not vacant anymore


Also rhymes with days of yore, nevermore, more s'mores…

A large steam powered clanking beast went thundering by today, just like in the good old days. I felt excitement because here along came free entertainment on the hoof and all I had to do was sit in the right place and wait for it to happen. Suddenly a large steam powered whistle noise came from around the bend nearby. Along came a steam powered train!
he steam powered train wasn't as loud this time since it was going downhill. Yesterday it was going uphill and that was really loud.

I am excited by steam powered machines. Click on this one to see the large size picture.
