Criticar por criticar

The new Fangoria video...

Estrojunk

So last night was bust as they say. First of all, I call for a cab and it's to arrive within 10-30 mintues. 45 minutes later still no cab. So I call and after being put on hold for another 5 minutes I'm told no one ever responded to my original request. So I was told they could try again. No way. It was already 10pm and the show started at 9 (opening acts). As my non-luck would have it, when you want a cab they are nowhere to be found, when you don't there are like 10 that pass by. After searching we finally found one. We got to the Abbey Pub, it was a cute place, real small. This band Lesbians On Ecstacy were playing and they were really fun.

Next we sat through this crazy lady named Leslie and the Lys. She was a bedazzled sight, and quite funny. But that's not why we there. So Rob goes to ask what time Fannypack were playing. Turns out...

Fannypack cancelled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



OMG!!! I was so friggin' pissed. Being the faggy bitch I can be, I was not about to let this slide by. We came to see Fannypack and they cancelled, the least they can do is give me a refund. They were like "well the cancellation was announced". Fuck that. So I got one. Come on, there were posters all over the city, it said "Fannypack" in huge letters on the marquee at the Abbey Pub. Can you say false advertising? I think she was trying to make us feel bad by telling us that it was a benefit...blah blah. Like Rob said we don't care about pussy, we came to see Fannypack!

Until next time...

I'm alive

We are currently computer-less, the laptop died....therefore I have not been able able to write (as I only have access at work and we are too busy right now). With that said I took a few secs to write a message to you all. While you wait for me to get back online normally, here's a video for you all by one of my fave bands everl:

Godparents

Now that we're pretty much settled into our new place, I seem to be finding random things lying about. The other day I came across this picture:



It's a picture of me as a baby w/ my Aunt Juanita, my mom's younger sister. Growing up she was my favorite aunt. She was also my Godmother. She died when I was 17.

I had a Godfather as well. I have absolutely no recollection of him at all. Apparently he too passed away several years ago. I don't know where this post is going, I just thought it was rather eerie that both my Godparents had passed away. Reminds me, I should probably inquire how my own Goddaughter is doing.

On a lighter note Dancing With The Stars started again. I love this show, it's just so campy. This season they got 2 early 90s teen idols. Joey Lawrence and Mario López!!! Save Joey's scary eyebrows, he is friggin hot! Those arms.



But there's nothing like Mario. Grrr. Check him out:



I plan on indulging on a CD shopping excursion very soon. I need a new book or two to read. Enough ranting. I guess I should get back to work.

New attititude

I finally went ahead and changed my template. I think I was sooooooooooo bored of the old one that I haven't been in a blogging mood as a result. I found this one at Blogger Templates. Let me know what you think :)

Last night we went to see The Gossip at the Metro.



Holy shit do I love Beth Ditto (the lead singer). She is awesome. She's a big girl and she does not care. I loved it, she was shaking her flab all night! We didn't stay for the whole show, but we stayed long enough to hear my favorite song of theirs (and the one that got me hooked), Standing In The Way Of Control. Thanks boo boo for getting us on the guest list. I had a blast.

Can I talk about the scary lesbians that were at the show? On second thought, I'd rather not. Speaking of scary lesbians, as we were walking around I noticed a flyer for Estrojam (basically a dyke festival) that's taking place here in Chicago. Well guess who's performing?



Yes chirens, that would be the über fabulous Fannypack!!! OMG!!! I am so going. Anyone want to go?? They are playing at the Abbey Pub Friday September 29. Here's some more info on the event.

I have to comment on how cold it is today. I absofrigginluvit!!!! Fall looks like it's finally arrived. Let's hope it's not just teasing us and tomorrow it will be 80. I can't take another day of summer and it's sticky gross heat.

So I've gone about 3 weeks w/out buying a CD. You're kidding right? you must be saying to yourselves. No it's true. I've just been too broke. In fact I'm just plain broke until payday. Can it be Thursday already? Don't worry kiddies, I'm going on a CD binge this upcoming paycheck :)

Well it's about time to take my child out, so I wish you all a good weekend (what's left of it)...
