Your stalking shoes will have to take their own guilt trip. Mine are working hard enough as it is.


And also ... Oh Noes! 5/3?! I'm out of town that day (in fact that entire week)! Nooooooooo! Just kill me now.

This may be a dangerous sentiment, given the ongoing feud in which you're currently allegedly involved.

You are welcome, although remember: ALL shows are sold out!

I have been weaning myself from the soul-suckingness that occurs from too much time before my computer screen. I stop by on occasion. Thanks for asking.

Dadgummit! or Dangnabbit! or FuckingFuck! Unfair to WEW fans that he wasn't announced until after the shows sold out. We shall form a protest group. CdnSteve, you make the signs, I'll print the t-shirts, Dzm, you come up with the clever slogan.

Yup the Wellmont in Montclair NJ is sold out.

Someone let Spider know if he thinks The Pogues ticket prices are getting hard to justify, I found Elvis Costello is chargin $125 and $95 for his top tickets in this venue!!!

Chris Cornell & WEW are playing the Vancouver suburb of Coquitlam? But not Vacnouver? And it's sold oout? Well damn my snobby big-city ways, who saw that comin'?

Oh, i just looked. It's at the Casino! Hilarious, seeing this show at a Casino could only be topped by seeing this show at a casino while on acid.

Isn't Coquitlam the Canadian town famous for the pig farmer hooker killer?

Willie Picton is his name, and yes - Coquitlam is where the farm was (totally bulldozed now, and slated for redevelopment into a subdivision) (and a real-life "Poltergeist" a few years later, no doubt). It's one of those places that was mostly rural, but then rapidly developed due to it's proximity to a major metroploitan centre (Vancouver, in this case).

And I can assure you that nothing has really changed for the better for those women in Vancouver forced to work the streets, it's still as dangerous. I would encourage everyone to support decriminaliation of sex work. There is a Supreme Court hearing coming up out here, listen to a podcast for more info:
