Tis’ the season for lamenting one’s love or in my case loneliness. Fortunately this doesn’t bother me, though it’s always nice to have someone for the Hallmark holiday. The past year the relationship portion of my life had its ups and downs, but there weren’t any big shakeups to discuss. After much discussion and long winded emails, Whitney and I have decided to change this aspect of our lives. We are penning a manifesto of sorts. We are starting a movement that will simply be known as, ‘Choose Romance’. We shall be known as new romantics. I know what you’re thinking, and yes, this idea sounds gayer than a rainbow, but that just might be the point. Pretense and better judgment will be thrown out the window in an effort to find some sort of meaning for all the bullshit emotions kids in their 2T’s have to sort out. So get ready for the winds of change. They’re blowing more than Paris Hilton. Stay tuned for the manifesto. The crowd is hungry.
On a sidenote: Jay Belin now plays drums in Dashboard Confession.
Readers of this bullshit rejoice; 186 is back online. While throwing back a Mr. Nice, the cable guy stopped in to make our apartment Road Runner ready. It’s a much needed addition to our monthly bills since we are attempting to launch an online publication. Once the boss left, I grabbed my gear and headed to Webster Hall where we were hosting the 1st Annual Plug Awards show. The bill was a hodgepodge of various indie artists spanning across a variety of genres. The lineup included Saul Williams, RJD2 w/Aesop Rock, Sufjan Stevens, Ted Leo / Pharmacists and Dillinger Escape Plan. The entire crew was onsite last night and everything went according to plan. The event, from my perspective was a success, so look out for more in the years to come. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to meet the Wayans brothers.
Like I said before, make sure you stop into the Mercury Lounge for some Chin Up Chin Up this evening. It should be a solid set, (read below for more info). I couldn’t be more excited. I’ll be running over there after the girl-on-girl make out sessions expected in this weeks episode of The O.C. Later you should stop by Mickey’s Blue Room (Ave C btwn 10th/11th) to check out DJ Del on the decks with help from Kibbles ‘n Bits aka Lucy and Tumble.
Sorry this was such a shit post. I’m feeling tired, lazy and maybe a bit sick.
