in between days

wanna know the only good thing about working for a band that is doing an instore at amoeba?
they give you like $60 credit to go buy whatever you want.

here's what i bought. not that i am disappointed with any of my purchases, but keep in miind that you spend a few hours working and then have like 15 minutes to buy stuff. so not a lot of browsing is happening is what i am sayng. it's more like a game show shopping spree.

sf:
nirvana "in utero" cd used $4.99 (what's up bobee?)
wooden shjips s/t cd new (with bonus cd) $13.99
fucked up "the black hats / year of the pig" 12" $8.99
godard criterion collection "masculin feminin" dvd $28.99

siouxsie and the banshees "the scream" used cd $4.99

the cure "seventeen seconds" used cd $5.99
siouxsie and the banshees "tinderbox" used cd $4.99
magick markers "boss" new cd $8.99

but best of all.... jessica espeleta working in the LA vinyl section. jessica grew up in booneville, ca. they have their own language in that town, apple head = girlfriend. seriously. it's called boontling. have fun with that link.

now for the bad news. i'm off to boston in the morning for the east coast part of this tour. it's bad enough going to boston EVER. but to have to go 3 days after they beat my team, the cleveland indians? another occasion to say: fuck this shit.

Gotta love that Wilco "Yankeehotelfoxtrot" vinyl behind your friend to the left in the record store. They put on a great show in Pittsburgh on Friday.

Feel free to punch Josh Beckett in the face for my while you are in Boston.

That stinks, going to Boston. At least here in Cleveland we can turn our lives to something else and pretend it never happened. There it will be IN YOUR FACE! At least they aren't the Yankees...we told ourselves we would be pleased if nothing else ever came of it but beating the Yankees(guess we lied to ourselves---we're not happy!).

saw this in the defintion link:

kimmie - a man, more often applied to a stranger. (From: "Come here, you.")

I like that lingo

i barely even know jessica but i see her just about every time i am at amoeba in LA and it makes me feel good, like maybe it's my local record store where i know the clerks when, really, i live in seattle and only get to geek out on sunset a couple of times a year, at best.
fuck, that was a long sentence.
