Hi there. I just wanted to remind you one last time that “Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now,” the futuristic night of Smiths music, Morrissey music, and speed dating is happening tonight at the Black Rabbit in Greenpoint at 8pm. You should totally come. Even if you don’t want to speed date, you can still come and just hang out and listen to the music and drink stuff while other people engage in potentially awkward speed-dating conversation. It is going to be incredible. It’s gonna go late too, so feel free to straggle in whenever.
In other news, last night I went to see Doug Gillard play in the last night of his residency at Piano’s over there on the Lower East Side. I even got up on stage and talked and played a bit of guitar before Doug and his band commenced full-on rocking. They were great. You should pick up Doug’s new album “Call from Restricted.” He rocks big time. And we are both from Cleveland so there’s that too. It’s a magical town.
In still other news, thanks to the blog commenter person who passed this on to me. It’s a David Lee Roth-themed version of Asteroids that you can play on your computer. How anyone will ever get anything else done ever again once they’ve discovered this is beyond me. This is some serious genius here. I wish I had thought of it. Then again, I thought of the Smiths/speed dating thing, so I supposed I am doing okay in the incredible ideas department (See how I brought things full circle? Not too shabby).
Now, on a completely-unrelated-to-everything-else-I-have-just-said note, I noticed the deli near my house has stopped carrying Kombucha. Does this mean the Kombucha craze of 2007 is completely over? Are we not drinking that stuff anymore? I don’t drink it that often but I was thinking of drinking it today. But now I can’t unless I want to walk to another deli, of course. But I feel too defeated to do that right now. I’m just kind of stunned really. What are they going to take from us next, those weird bran bars they sell up at the counter? I thought things were supposed to be different now.
