So Narragansett Beer recently unveiled its new logo, and I'm not too impressed. I kinda like the old one. Maybe it will look better after a few gansetts, everything usually does.
"They say "a picture is worth a thousand words"This guitar features a picture of the New York Twin Towers on the upper bout with a blue sky background and two jet streams behind them.Under that an American Flag blowing in the wind.On the lower bout a picture of President Bush sporting a red , white & blue stars & stripes derby.On the bottom horn a yellow background with"Unite to defeat terrorism" on it.Two double Humbucker style pickups and a Floyd Rose style bridge.Three way toggle switch and one volume and one tone control.Just set up at noll Guitars so this baby is ready to rock.Comes in a padded gig bag the same shape as the guitar.Show your pride.!"
Last night Poorly Drawn People were tight. The whole crowd was in to it. Wish I brought my camera. Oh well.
I did however bring my camera to the six finger satellite show. Below is my fav pic from the night. I'm going to see the Neon Bitches tonight and The New Lewiss tomorrow, I'll be sure to take some pics.
A very full weekend, full of great shows. If you are in Providence and aren't out at one of these things, you really suck.
- Thursday was Dino Jr at Club Hell in Providence.
- Friday was Six Finger Satellite at Machines with Magnets in Pawtucket. They rocked by the way. The show was packed, everyone was there. Japanther also played last night at Firehouse13, but I missed it due to the 6FS show.
- Saturday Night (Tonight) Poorly Drawn People is having their record release show. Also tonight, at Local 121, Slice & Soda (San Serac and Para One) are djing with Morgan louis. Both events should be fun so try to make it to both.
- Sunday night its the Neon Bitches and a bunch of touring bands at the Metal Mansion (or whatever they call it now).
- Monday Night The New Lewiss and Mahi Mahi are at the Dark Lady in Providence.
Man, I'm tired already. I'll bring my camera around and take some pics if I feel like it. Maybe I'll post them here if any are good.
i just got back from the dinosaur jr show and it was awasdume. the show started really early at like 7 and i missed the firsr band but thats ok, who cares. cause dinosaur was awesome! atr one point they rockedas so hard that my face actually fell off and i had to look for it on the ground, someone stepped on it and i had to yell at hem to get off of my face but they were like oh shit man, i didn't realsize i was standing on your face. so it was cool,. no hardi feelings but it was nice. i then had a scorpioon bowl and then i went to 121 and saw some craopy dj try to spin some shit. he sucked whoever he was. but i drank and looked stoupit on trhe dancefloor with some stupis people it was dumb. you should have been there cause i was drunk. and you should have seen the no one there was cool it was dumb. i'll go next time.
six finger staeltit isnm plaing tiomororw you should go. it sin pawtucket at this col space. taltttfc l m should cbe cool. i found out a nothsd band is playing this week dn and tanother one on sundasy i'll wirt e more latef when you can talk to me caise i know i am stupid. i prokfbbaly delete theins post tomrosw
Dinosaur Jr is playing tonight at Club Hell in Providence. Amazing. My favorite band ever. They are playing at some pretty small venues this tour and as a bonus they have a tour 7" for anyone that has a ticket. I don't think too many people know about the show, so could be interesting. Their last CD was great, and they just signed to Jagjaguwar and are releasing some more new stuff soon.
Six Finger Satellite is playing tomorrow night at Machines With Magnets. Another great show that I can't wait for. Should be sick. One time, a band I used to be in played a sick show with 6FS and Arab on Radar in NYC at this small warehouse space. The space could probably fit 150 comfortably but there was a line wrapped around the block, it was so crowded people were standing all around me and I was hitting people (pretty hard too) as I played the drums, there were naked people passing out on the floor, and more interesting shit. Probably one of the funnest shows I have ever been to. Hopefully something similar happens tomorrow night.
I might be late in finding this, it seems like they've been around, but I mean with action figures that include a Gay Storm Trooper and Another Bitch You Didn't Get To Fuck, I felt it was only appropriate that we mention them on here. The Gay Storm Troooper is supposedly the first openly gay action figure, what a pioneer. There would have been others, but being openly gay in the military is frowned upon, time to update your rules GI Joe...
So I just found this site that sells awesome things like scorpion vodka (with an edible scorpion inside), worm lolipops, chocolate covered giant ants, and tons of other bugs you can eat from all over the world. There is even coffee that has been eaten and regurgitated by a weasel and tea leaves that has been hand picked by a specially trained monkey!
I really kind of want the vodka, everything else I probably wouldn't touch, I guess maybe if I had the Vodka first...
For anyone in the Providence area, DJ Sterbyrock is spinning hip hop classics from the 90's at local 121 tonight. There is no cover and Gansetts are only $2.50 each. Come dance and drink with me.
Apparently in a last ditch effort to draw some needed attention to herself, mother nature decided to change things up a bit and created a pink dolphin. What will she think of next!
This is the perfect item for those of us who like to drink but have to go places where drinking isn't exactly acceptable, and lets be honest, occasions where you're not suppose to drink are the times you need one most. Just don't put these down, because you know some stupid little kid could totally ruin this for you. Also, don't bring them everywhere, people will think you're captain creepy walking around with binoculars all the time.
Another cool invention is this beer can wrapper. It makes it look like you are drinking some cheapass imitation soda, but you'll be drinking a cheapass beer instead! Bonus: You can just throw this in the cooler next to some name brand soda and not even worry, cause I mean really, who is gonna grab something that says "Peski" on it? Brilliant! Unfortunately, it prolly won't work on those tall delicious cans of Narragansett that we all love to drink so much.
