And Now For Musical Monday
Friday night I went to see Kermit Ruffins at Brick and Mortar. He’s a trumpet player from New Orleans, who’s hot at the moment because he’s a regular on the HBO series “Treme.” I had a ticket to see him in New Orleans at One Eyed Jacks, but missed his performance (long story, which I … Continue reading
Musical Monday Makes Up For It
Due to my disappointment the other night, I’ll allow Harry to make it up to me with this video. This still has me fiending for New Orleans. I long to be there again on a sultry summer night in a crowded bar listening to some phenomenal live music while the scent of magnolias lingers in … Continue reading
It’s Going To Be One of Those Nights…
where I go to bed at 1:00 a.m. and get up the following morning at 6:45 a.m. Why is that, you ask? Because it’s 11:40 p.m. and I just got home from the gym about 5 minutes ago. Once this post is finished, I have to take a quick shower, take my contacts out, wash … Continue reading
It’s The Kid…
Rock, that is. Yesterday a few friends and I went to a concert at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View (over where Google and Linked In headquarters are located) to see Uncle Kracker, ZZ Top and Kid Rock. I was more interested in the last two more than Uncle Kracker. There were plenty of “older” people … Continue reading
Going Old School Again
For Musical Monday, we’re taking another step back to the fabulous 80’s. This was one of my favorite songs ’cause I always listened to The Cure and The Psychedelic Furs! I went to a Cure concert at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena once and bought one of their T-shirts. All they had left of the … Continue reading
I’m Rick James, B****!
I bet THAT got your attention, huh?! For this Musical Monday, we’re gonna’ go WAAYYY back. I used to sing this song so damned much at the top of my lungs that my Thai then-boyfriend dubbed me “Tina Jane.” I STILL sing it whenever I hear it! We all know that this song refers to … Continue reading
Musical Mass Confusion Monday
I’m all over the place today; lots on my mind. The new roommate, Austin, was by this evening to pick up his key, pay the rent and begin moving his things. He said that he’d probably have to make 6 or 7 trips, though I think he was only here once. He said that he’d … Continue reading
For Rick – On Musical Monday
Back when I lived in WeHo (West Hollywood), I had a boyfriend named Rick for one torrid summer. Don’t know how we met; think it was through his friend and later roommate, Steve, when I bumped into the two of them at an Asian Food Festival. It’s weird that I suddenly can’t remember the first … Continue reading
I Love Me Some Buckwheat!
Since I heard a zydeco band at the North Beach Festival on Saturday, I’ve spent part of this evening listening to zydeco music again and thought it appropriate for this Musical Monday. I have no idea where my love of zydeco music began, but it REALLY, REALLY makes me think of (and miss) New Orleans. … Continue reading
I Think I’m Turning Vietnamese
My friend is accusing me of turning Vietnamese, beings I’ve been out traipsing around the Tenderloin and other places in search of Vietnamese food to “practice” with. He said that I’ll soon be signing up for a Vietnamese language course! Well, after one semester of not studying, I’ve already forgotten most of my Italian. My … Continue reading
