DFW rapper convicted of drug charges
FREE TWISTED BLACK! I'm no lawyer, but my understanding of conspiracy charges is that you can be charged just for TALKING about doing something illegal. That's B.S. Yeah, I know he actually did sell some blow, at least according to someone willing to snitch on others to reduce his own sentence. But I don't see how conspiracy charges are even constitutional. Even if he did it, nobody deserves life in prison for selling drugs. What a waste.

Calling all steak-loving volunteers
If you're ever north of U.S. 380, go to Bobcat Country (or Kountry, or somesuch countrified misspelling) in Celina. It's a convenience store on Pecan St./FM 455 a few blocks west of S.H. 289 (Preston Rd.). They get fresh beef on Wednesdays and you can usually find a good cut till Friday. Huge, thick cuts: porterhouse, filets, strip. If I remember right, it's all between $6-$9 a pound.

American Stinky Music Awards
I agreed with the LA Times reader after reading this first sentence: "Mariah Carey, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Black Eyed Peas and Nickelback lead the nominations with three nods each." The list gets no better from there.

Rage Against the Valet
I will walk a mile to avoid valet parking. I'm willing to walk pretty far to avoid paying to park anywhere, but I absolutely refuse to ever allow anyone to park my car, period. Even if it's "free." I've known too many sketchy characters who've worked as valets to trust my car to one.

Yes, I was raised in a barn.

Nasty. It's like eating salty hay. They're OK with cheese or dip, though.

Spend $15,000 to spin records?!?!
A friend of mine goes to audiophile listening parties, where guys show off their equipment. One dude's set-up cost him something like $80,000. His speaker cables alone cost more than my entire home stereo. They routinely do things like cryogenically freeze all metal components and electrical outlet boxes. But you know what makes a really good speaker cable? Just cut a length of heavy-duty electrical extension cord.

The height of music critic snobbery
My name doesn't have an "L" in it. That B.O. piece wasn't out of nowhere. It was a preview for the band's upcoming concert, like Geoff's was a preview for Dave's concert.

Dead Money
Does anyone think it's just a coincidence that a story about the folly of contract buyouts ran the day after the DMN offered buyouts to so many staff members?

Win a free ticket to Buzz Oven's Summer Blowout
Anyone who doesn't want 50 copies of this flyer on their myspace page better change their comment settings in a hurry.

I like the look of this new club
Club KNON = genius one-liner. Dave Chaos should host the open mic.

Mario Tarradell has pissed me off again
They should call themselves Cabeza Grande Todd y los Monstruos. BOOOOORING.

You poser, that's not real punk rock
Todd- How much would you pay to see me do so wielding a straight razor and wearing a fanny pack? C'mon, it was just a light-hearted story poking a little fun at a successful band as well as the punker-than-thou purist mentality. I like Rancid and Street Dogs, too.

BBQ Fistfight
That's a perfect meal, except for the beer. A more accurate name for Ziegen Bock would be "Anheuser-Busch Fake Shiner". But I can almost smell that brisket.

How
notto get people into your clubAmen! Another reason to update your main website in addition to updating your Myspace page: a lot of companies block access to Myspace and other blog-type websites. So anyone who works for those companies can't get info about certain clubs (or bands, for that matter) from work.

The Eagles of Death Metal
They're from California, not Dallas. Mike, you probably won't like my band's name: The Bee-Gees of Grindcore.

Bowling for Soup drummer takes a dump
You're right, Gregory, it was pretty obvious. I'll try not to make my comments so trite. Better next time, I promise.

Thank God it was the drummer. Can you even imagine how hellish it must be when their morbidly obese guitarist drops a deuce?

Transitions
So in other words, there's ANOTHER site I have to go to every day. What are Flat Cindy's thoughts on all this?

Wall of WTF?
I saw a lot of great performances, even though there were some tough choices to make and a lot of running back and forth. And those long festivals can be grueling when they're all indoors.
Glad I got to meet you there and see Kate again. Sorry to hear it wasn't so pleasant for you.

Odis / Auckland / The Villians
If that's them in the pic, those are the ugliest girls I've ever seen. Is the second-from-left girl topless?

Steel wool over mine eyes
After last night, there are fewer than 11. But I saved some to enjoy before the Rubber Gloves show tonight. Drinking the 211 warm during the day takes it to the next level, though. Much respect, Mike.

Cindy, I was sorry I missed you last night, but I left a can on the office doorway for you or whoever gets it first. Lone Star and Shiner can duke it out over which is the official beer of Metroplex music, but I think SR 211 should be the official malt liquor.
