Saw them in Katy last Friday, really enjoyed their show. They definitely decided to just say "fuck it" and let their freak flag fly (the guard anyway...).

Yeah, some kind of Stewart Copeland-hosted Rock Week, saw a great doc on Clapton during his 70's phase last night. Here's the rest of the week's line-up (pissed I just tuned in last night, missed some good ones earlier in the week...) FRIDAY July 20 THE DOORS: MR. MOJO RISIN’ – THE STORY OF L.A.

Just got back today, quick weekend trip. Sunday, rolled in, time to kill before check in, did the walk-on ferry ride, do that every time we go. Seemed really quick, maybe they were running at top speed since the line to get off the island was backed up all the way to the seawall. Ran back to the other end of the island, hit up Jimmy's on the Pier for a beer right before check in. (Somebody mentioned before on the Shag about all the Russian-Croatian-whatever exchange students or whatever on the island, yeah, nothing but at Jimmy's, weird, 2nd year-not in a row-we've seen that there...). Finally check in, quick dip in the pool shared with the with the 4 parentsand their 15 kids , then a few pints at Galveston Island Brewery. Never knew about that place, just googled it, love it, good beer, love the deck to watch the sun go down, cool spot. Then down to Brews Bros for a late supper. Burger was great, wife had fish tacos that she said "tasted like a finger", whatever that means, she wasn't a fan, too dark in there to tell what exactly was in them, but too froo-froo for her. Otherwise not that impressed, been wanting to go there for years, thought the beer selection would be bigger. Monday, all day at the beach, back to the pool around 4pm, then shower and off to Benno's, our every time stop. Had the same platter as phd above, excellent as always, although the crab balls and hush puppies were just a little over-browned for me, on the edge of being burnt, and a little dry. Wife had dozen fried oysters and downed 'em all. Then back to GI Brewing for a game of Quirkle and watch the sun go down, really like that place a lot. Tuesday, lazy day, wife got me Shipley's for breakfast because I grew up on Shipley's and love it, so what? Couple more hours at the beach, hit the pool to wash off, then short walk over to Tortuga's for some fruity cold drinks. Shower time, then hit Shrimp n Stuff Downtown, which I didn't even know about until we got to town. Had the shrimp n oyster po'boy, wife had shrimp gumbo, just as good as the original SnS, and again with all the eastern euro waitresses. No, no keepers, these were probably Albanian. Then over to the George Sealy Pavilion for the Tuesday night concert by the Galveston Beach Band, been doing that since our kiddos were in diapers, cannot beat it for old-school Americana, big-band music at dusk, some chick singing torch songs like she's on a cruise ship, two ladies reading a Galveston history lesson, and a flag parade for all the kiddos, it's the best. Off to the Marble Slab on the way home, then pack up and headed back out this morning. Beach was great, not too crowded, hardly any seaweed. It was really choppy and strong undertow on Monday, windy as hell too, but yesterday was picture perfect, calm and no undertow at all, chilled out on the sandbar all afternoon. Do it every couple of years, just go hang out, drink, eat seafood and recharge my batteries. Love Galveston.

Nice. Back in the early 1980's, a lot of the record labels re-released a lot of groups' biggest hits on 45, usually 2 hits on one 45, labels like "Columbia Hall of Fame" (got Aerosmith Sweet Emotion/Dream On) or "Epic Sun Gold" (Queen Bohemian Rhapsody/You're My Best Friend), "A&M Forget'Me Nots" (Brothers Johnson Strawberry Letter 23), RCA (David Bowie Space Oddity/The Man Who Sold the World). I grabbed a ton of those, was able to snag a re-pressing of that Immigrant Song/Hey Hey single. Still sounds damn good.

It is, they had to be all-inclusive of course, and put that shaved-head lesbian in there for a fraction of a second.

I don't wanna be..... an imitated man. Goddam I see that shitty Bonobos commercial 50 times a day. Hipster overload, christ.

Well, everybody's favorite racist mini/spit that blood just popped back up over there, so things should really pick up now! Wonder how ol' Kevin is gonna feel when his beloved website turns into Stormfront 2.0...

OP: CR posts - 64 Football & recruiting posts - 25 Yep, something isn't right...

I have this original single of this one, it's the flip side to "Everything Turns Grey". I don't know why, every version I've ever found on the internet has the single repeated twice (the fade-out is at 1:50, but then they just looped it back to the beginning again, original is shorter and better, still like it anyway...) From "Repo Man", definitely has the surfer vibe to it...

New,old, don't matter, what you got? Guitar armies, represent!

A little buzzed tonight boys, gonna let the good shit flow...

Shoe megaphone grunties Wankle rotary engine

Butt, butt, hole, - butt, butt, butthole

Can't even get decent food. Right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup. I'm an average nobody. Get to live the rest of my life like a schnook.

Not as hot as the crazy bitch in Austin who stabbed a girl just to see what it felt like to kill someone (she didn't), but not bad. And seriously, just go with it for minute or two, then wrestle the machete away from her and kick her ass out the door. Fucking millennials...

Yeah, 8badmofo31 and Epi Quinn, literally the only two left standing over there, jerking each other off in the CR, not a single other forum has any activity at all...

Don't know why this fucker won't let me edit, props to jive turkey who posted the link on Thurs, it does mention the new character, or are people referring to the "couple of new characters that we’ll be reintroducing to the world"...

I saw it on some Hollywood website last week...

I hear some Juice Newton Queen of Hearts going on.

Ride the wave, man...

That's his new squeeze. Crazy ex never even bothered to show up for court proceedings... edit: this appears to be the ex:

I saw that douche, told you to move back north or something, what an a-hole.
