Wall of Hair?



So, Phil Spector goes on trial soon for murder. Looking like this, it's no wonder he could only get in a starlet's pants by getting his gun and saying, 'Stick 'em up.'

[izeveryboyin]

now... was the the phrase "stick 'em up" inteded to be a pun, or am I just unforgiveably dirty.

I knew a guy who had hair
just like phils', and he blamed
it on the medication he was
on. I was on the same med. and
mine just sat on my head all
naturall.

Phil did it.. Didn't ya buddy?

One of the coolest jobs I ever had was being the projectionist at a drive in movie near Lexington Virginia. A real college town, VMI and Washington and Lee. My boss was a gun nut. Nice kids but they would get rowdy drunk on the party row in back, the families and kids in the front rows. Mostly peaceful but sometimes they got too loud. My boss liked put his thirty eight in his pocket and go back to play the law. Finally the woman who ran the concession stand told me to go back and quiet things down. He hated us after that. She got fired and I got fired. Funny thing was the non profit group that ran the place was headed by a Quaker.

My hair always looks groomed. I use super glue. I had an unfortunate serries of events with a broken set of head phones and a tube of super glue. Finally shampooed the last bit out after two weeks.

--K you are one sick puppy. I thought it was funny, but it is the kind of bitter humor I could not make with out being a sick fucko.
Maybe I am just a dirty old man for laughing at it. Not laughing at it so much as just smiling to see that dirty mind of yours at work.
While we are on the subject of celebrity justice, Jack Nietzsche (may he rest in peace) was an associate of Phil. I think he was accused by Carrie Snodgrass (an actress I liked a lot, Diary of a Mad House Wife?) well old jack was accused of sexaully assaulting her with a forty five. That was a long time ago, well in your years, to me it was like yesterday. maybe twenty years or so.

Sorry I could not get your name right. My brain is melting, what a world what world. I can look up the spelling of a world ten times and still not remember it ten minutes later. But ask me what I had for lunch on September 9, 1973 and I could probably tell you. Typical geezer memory.

Your post reminded me of that rape accusation. I wish I could just clear my mind of all that trivia. But I think my mind going to get empty enough pretty soon. Me lecturing you about self control is a dam good joke. I smoked so many cigarettes today I got a callous on my thumb from a cheap lighter.

[knip]

i've had that thumb callous for 30 years

thinking i smoke too much

[wurdjam]

what's that callus from, boy?

[knip]

from striking the little ribbed rolly thingy on the disposable lighter, boy

Dear LR:


I'm sitting in an Internet cafe in Morro Bay, California and it's raining lightly.

http://www.morro-bay.net/

The gulls are carrying people away and waiting for further commands from Hitchcock and H.P. Lovecraft.

I am doing a little sketching around the harbor and staying out of night clubs.

Healthy walks along the shoreline and in Montana de Oro every day. Doctor's orders.

The "wall of hair" post above put me in mind of my favorite period of rock and roll after its birth in the fifties and its tumescence in the sixties-- the mid-eighties. The invention of the rock video ( a commercial featuring the music it advertises) spawned wonderful bands-- Boy George and Culture Club, The Pretenders--- and--

WALL OF VOODOO

a rock band which possessed my favorite band name, next to The Rolling Stones, which has to be the best of all time-- for me the name and their music, though I am very partial to Hootie and the Blowfish and Dire Straits.

Here is a web page for those of you who have yet to taste the delights of "Mexican Radio" and other masterpieces.

This web address will take you to a site with more information about WALL OF VOODOO than you could ever wish to know.

A good name for the Bush Administration might be WALL OF POOPOO-- eh?

With a name like Phil Spector, this gent must be used to being a little ectoplasmic, eh?

For now, ta-ta until I get back to good old L.A.-- the entertainment and confused, greedy pluto-porn capital of the universe!

Hey let me tell you my life story

I worked on a trawler out of Morro Bay. All those fish and chip restaurants, none of them could afford to buy our fresh fish, they served frozen fish from Iceland.

About once a week we would load up a one ton van with about three tons of fish and ice and make the trip down to LA. I think there is a mountain pass called San Marcos? Man you talk about being puckered up and having a grip on the seat cushion.

thanks for the links

I always loved this song by the pretenders

I went back to ohio
But my city was gone
There was no train station
There was no downtown
South howard had disappeared
All my favorite places
My city had been pulled down
Reduced to parking spaces
A, o, way to go ohio

Well I went back to ohio
But my family was gone
I stood on the back porch
There was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed
My childhood memories
Slowly swirled past
Like the wind through the trees
A, o, oh way to go ohio

I went back to ohio
But my pretty countryside
Had been paved down the middle
By a government that had no pride
The farms of ohio
Had been replaced by shopping malls
And muzak filled the air
From seneca to cuyahoga falls
Said, a, o, oh way to go ohio

Around 1952 when I first started listening to that devil african music
Hot Rod the dj in baltimore , me dancing around in my under wear to his show. Fats and little richard but mostly white covers.

Z-ko and Jack

you guys both make me smile

Z, The name of my personal legendary band (which has taken many forms over the years) is

Voodookazoo

at times Voodookazoo has been just me and a tape machine
and at other times it has been fifteen people on stage playing everything from saws to tablespoons.

yes, izzy, you are terminally twisted. That's why I have such affection for you.

[Zlatko Waterman]

Dear LR:


Home-made music, crafted by hand. Nothing like it.

"VOODOOKAZOO" is a fine name . . .

Robert Crumb was right ( his "Cheap Suit Serenaders" was a great band!)-- once the people made their own music. Then the lawyers moved in and here we are.

Described as a band consisting of "misfits, dorks and comic book geeks", Crumb's group was one I would most like to have played mandolin for.
