RIP King of Pop

We have lost a major pop icon of our generation.  Michael Jackson died this afternoon at the UCLA Medical Center from cardiac arrest, just prior to embarking on a 50 city "comeback" tour.  He was 50 years old. 

I Sure Hope You Like Squirt.

Not a fan of Squirt? You know, that citrusy, caffeine free (booooooo) soda that was first made in 1938 by Herb Bishop? (Thanks, Wikipedia!) Well you better be, because guess what - my future husband Greg Gillis is back in town to perform a free show!

Did I say free? Sorry, I meant to say that in exchange for 36 empty cans of Squirt, you can score a ticket to see Girl Talk at the Grove of Anaheim. That, my friend, is a lot of citrusy soda to drink in 18 days. Worth it? Yes. Will I be there, rushing the stage again for a chance to proclaim my undying love of him? No. Sadly, Hawaii calls louder than the deafening bass that will be pulsating from those giant speakers. So when you go, please send my love and regards to my boo.

In Honor of 4/20 and Earth Day

I thought I'd post one of my favorite YouTube videos, the Dinosaur Rap. (Get it... Dinosaurs... Earth... and 4/20.)

Also, I tried a Google Image search for a gangster dinosaur, and this is what I got.

Remember These Guys?

Asa Ransom.

They visited LA on their way to SXSW so I stopped by to see their show at Spaceland in Silverlake and they sounded great! Please note their spray-painted-on-a-sheet banner hanging in the background and Jacob's new signature hat. Classic and oh so BK.
