Yes, that is right, my beard is no more! I decided to rock the old-timey chop/stache beard combo for the opening on Saturday Night. Do you know how incredibly difficult it is to have serious conversations with people in 2007 looking like you are from the 1880's? For some reason, people just don't take you seriously...
I kept that going for quite some time, trying to start the next retro trend, heading out to random bars and restaurants, but the only guy to give me props was, of all people, one of the Germans from the movie "Beerfest", whom I ran into (literally) at the Ice Rink in Culver City.
And so now, it is down to the Super Trooper mustache. With the Clips tonight fighting for the last playoff position, I had no choice but to go with the pure molester 'stache. Who else in that organization can help the Clippers win but the original Mike Noise? Sure I look like a Narc, but if the Clips do make it, I'll take full credit for it!
Anyway, back to art... despite it coming very late in this blog, we actually did have a show on Saturday night... and it was a barnburner. These kids rock... this is the kind of show we really like doing, giving some young artists a chance to rock it, and when they do, it just is fun... no other way to explain it.
It was nice seeing Misha and Todd... haven't seen those chaps in some time.
Oh, and one last thing: Pirates!
Our neighbor, Greg, runs an on-line record store... in his offtime, he is a pirate. No kidding. A Pirate. A swashbucklin', plank walkin', parrot havin', gold seekin' honest-to-God Pirate. He came by today to show me his new sword. Seriously. If you never have held a Pirate's sword, then brother, you haven't lived. Anyway, here is a plug for both his pirateness and music store...
Pirates!
