You Drive Me Ape

Random thoughts on Wednesday night:

*D.I. are fucking awesome. I can’t believe I never saw this band before and I can’t believe those old guys were so damn good. A very nice surprise.
*The Dickies make me happy. Also, their drummer is a dead ringer for my old friend Mark, mentioned below, and that was weird to watch.
*Perhaps if I continue this lifestyle, it will be my key to untold weight loss. I will keep on going to shows in very hot, very humid, little punk clubs and dance, dance, dance like there’s no tomorrow. I can shed unwanted pounds in weeks.
*I like to laugh at street punk bands. In a pontificating fit, the lead singer of Total Chaos actually implored of the crowd, “You know, we’ve got to unite to fight, but we’ve got to fight to unite.” Or something like that. I couldn’t really tell what he was saying, with his accent fading in and out the way it was.
*When I am old, I will acquire a Country Squire RV.
*Punk rock in the summertime with ice cold beers is the very funnest thing there is, ever.

Also, last night I was bemoaning all the really bad graffiti in the ladies’. I was so happy when I went to the bathroom for the last time before we left and someone had taken a black Sharpie and written “I heart SHITTIN’ TO THE DICKIES.”

See, you’d never see something like that in the Emo’s men’s room. This has less to do with the nature of men’s grafitti and more to do with the nature of the Emo’s men’s room.

So. The singer of the Dickies is a dead ringer for Lenny from Laverne and Shirley. D.I.’s singer looks kinda like a bald Marty Feldman but with his eyes on straight, or maybe like the big biker guy at the party from Weird Science. I want to hang out with these men and drink coffee.
