That guy was pretty good in GREEN ROOM (the only thing I've seen him in). I guess an insistent EXXXTREME techno soundtrack is supposed to inspire some kind of excitement in people.
Could be wonderful - guess I'll never know.
Seem to remember you could hop on if you held a Fast Pass, but that was a while back.
I don't know, man.
I’ll look into this. His work was hugely important to me during my dissipated 20s.
"London A-Z" is the long-running, pocket-sized London map book - assuming OP is British, and "A-Z" has become a generic term.
That’s why you give your Punk Bucks to true indie-owned businesses, kids. Though I feel bad for all those who were affected by the sketchy layoffs.
Always worthwhile. I have the light blue version - and it's as scuffed-up as yours.
Nothing to do with any national holidays (though there probably is a Batman Day by this point). My friend Mark has one of these old Ideal Batman masks (more of a helmet, really) and he’s not even a comic book guy. More’s the pity.
An old boss of mine collected them, and used one as part of his desk set. Apparently they were notoriously poorly made, and broke all the time even when new. You ended the call by setting it back down on your desk or table, which depressed a button.
I’d love for bands, venues and event promoters to list their upcoming shows on Mastodon. But I can’t really see it happening in the immediate future, since they have to cast the broadest possible net to lure people in. I tend to go to a lot of punk / garage shows (it’s an emotional outlet, I guess) and they’re allllll advertised exclusively on Instagram, often with AI-gen flyers. To add insult to injury.
DJ coming up at Bar 355 in lovely-ish Downtown Oakland, California. Apologies if this is considered an "ad," though to be specific, no purchase is necessary and there ain't a cover.
Just wait til you discover Moorcock.
Yes, his last name is “Dick.” Hurr hurr.
The Oakland quartet Replica Watch at Spats in Berkeley, CA not too long ago. People were in attendance and observing, as is evidenced by the photo. They have a tape:
Doing my small part of a) stave off boredom, b) contribute in some small portion to this here community, and c) hype what is currently my favorite local (Oakland, California) band:
https://foglamp.bandcamp.com/album/still-entangled
Fog Lamp are loose-limbed synth/garage with an ironic observational spin to the lyrics. Heavy musically but very informal and at-ease in a live setting. Each time I've seen 'em they managed to overdrive the fog machine (possibly intentional, based on the band name).
Anyway, carry on.
