Isn't that the same date as the M.I.A. show at the 9:30 Club?

M.I.A. is the late show I think.

This band played in the front yard of a frat house down the street from my apartment in College Park this past spring…I drove by and there were maybe 100 people there.

sister hazel played my college for homecoming my freshman year. they were supposed to play on this stage outside. it rained that day, however, so they moved the show indoors. the idea was to have an 'intimate acoustic show' in the lobby of my dorm (it was a big lobby). the place was packed, they had a good show. afterwards, they asked my r.a. if they could use our showers on my floor. we, of course, said yes. they then trashed the hell out of it and we all got in trouble by our cleaning staff.

moral of the story: don't let sister hazel use your bathroom.

Queens of the Stone Age, with Jaguar Love
Thursday, December 20th
The Warfield Theatre, San Francisco, CA

and QOTSA will be playing on Letterman later tonight (wednesday oct 10).

Shiiiiiit! I wanna go to this!

I kinda fuckin' love Jaguar Love, it's the kid from Blood Brothers/Neon Blonde's new band, and…yeah.

So excited, I get to see Queens in Chicago at the Riviera in 2 weeks!

Sigh. I really like Sister Hazel.

But after their "omg come tape everything we do" to them, getting permission to tape a special acoustic show from their *management company*, after I signed 4 releases (fuck the house of blues in the ass) saying I'd never sell the show, burn them copies, etc etc… go in, set up my equipment, left to the bathroom…

then came back to them denying me access and almost taking my ticket (therefore stranding all my equipment in the room too! how would that work..), it soured me. To be fair, I was very vocal about it, and it didn't help them publicity wise…

Two of the members later apologized but the others actually won't have much to do with me, and run away or are very curt with me when I have seen them since then. (18 shows all told, that happened on the 14 or 15th.. they've been at some festivals I was working, or free)

Though I adore some of their music, I have to admit every damn show sounds the same. And I can probably recite with 90% accuracy over 90% of the setlist… in order. The reason they are still around are their Hazelnut fans, but in all honesty that's about it. They have one, maybe two good songs an album anymore. I don't listen to most of the new stuff.

I admit I'd probably go if the opener is good tho (anyone know who the opener is?) just to hear a couple songs.

But SH definitely are one of those bands that, while hugely "popular", probably oughta call it a career soon.

well, they have tickets listed for as low as 30, and as high as 100.

I enjoy Dane Cook. Mainly for the fact that he pisses all of you hipsters off so much.

I guess he's not ironic enough or his bitrate isn't above 160.

He's really not funny. At all. But what makes me really mad is that he got to make out with Jessica Alba :mad:

This is lifted from Gabriel Delahaye's (of Gawker's The Unethicist) blog. A real Jessica Alba quote:

JESSICA ALBA: Yeah, Iâ??ve always been wanting to do comedy. Thatâ??s one of the main reasons I got into this business in the first place. Iâ??ve always loved to make people laugh and it was the way that I sort of broke the ice when I was a kid with my friends. Iâ??d always do little skits or do little things, do anything really, to make people laugh. Oddly, in this business, I never really got a shot at it. Iâ??m not good at the half-hour comedy ba-dum-bump stuff. Iâ??m more into the physical comedy.

Jessica Albaâ??s first album will, of course, be titled â??Half-Hour Comedy Ba-Dum-Bump Stuffâ?. Here is a track listing (subject to change).

1. Intro
2. When I Wash My Hair, You Guys, I Follow the Instructions on the Shampoo Bottle
3. Whatâ??s the Most Money You Think You Could Spend on a Pair of Jeans? Double It, Then Get Them for Free from Your Publicist
4. Sushi (Skit)
5. This One Time I Was Hanging Out with Jack Nicholson in a Hot Tub, You Guys
6. Did You Ever Notice How Thereâ??s More Leg-Room in First Class?
7. Grape Nuts
8. One Time I Farted and Gold Came Out (Skit)
9. Whatâ??s the Deal with Cashmere Blends?
10. I Tell Reporters Iâ??m a â??Total Dorkâ? to Try and Avoid the Public Image of a Self-Obsessed, Vapid, Talentless Sex Object Who Only Has About Three More Years of Career Left Before Slowly Drinking Myself to Death in a â??Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?â? Scenario Come to Life, Which Is More Accurate.
11. Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire? Well, the Answer is No.
12. Farts and Butts
13. The Difference Between Having Sex for Money and Being Jessica Alba Is There Arenâ??t Any Temper Tantrums in Having Sex for Money
14. A Joke I Stole from Dane Cook
15. Iâ??m Surprised Iâ??m Not a Cocktail Waitress, Too
16. Darfur (skit)
17. The Sexiest Woman Alive Still Stares Into The Gaping Maw of the Eternal Nothing When the Sun Goes Down
18. Outro
