Welcome to the new world… I always forget how mean people can be. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Sometimes it’s so much more…but if it can happen to Uma Thurman, Carmen Electra, and Christy Brinkley, it can happen to me.  I was soooo happy in the 80’s check out this footage with Geza X and the Mommymen and Peter Ivers…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g33GfWl3TeI

The fourth of July was super festive! My friend Elise and her husband Bob Lee took me to a party hosted by Edwin Letcher of the Fleagles in Lincoln Heights, right in the middle of it all. It was like downtown Beirut. We hung with Lee from Dionysus records, Janet and Dan from the Shakes, photographer Bob Cantu and Jon Wahl of Clawhammer/the Amadans., Just 2 years ago the hillside caught fire and the fire trucks blocked the road an everyone was stuck there. Our Friend Rikki Madrigal was killed in a house fire caused by fireworks this year. I loved Rikki and I’m gonna miss her. We all will.

 I went to see Jack and the Weedstalk at the Key Club. My Tattoo artist Andy of Kaiden Creations created the lead character Jack, and it took on a life of it’s own when 140 dancers from dance schools like Madonna Grimes and Debbie Reynolds in Burbank chimed in. It was a stoner fairytale you can dance to and very well done. Congrats Andy!

We had a Surprise birthday party for Brad Mc Allen the former general manager of Boardners at Tinys. The old crew got together and had a swell time.  A lot of  Boardner’s former employees attended, I heard we are called the Hoi Polloi and we are not welcome in the new improved  under 30 Hollywood, according to a speech I heard about at the Nightclub association. Let me say this. They have all become  money hungry posers. Hollywood has been become a big stupid disco all over again.  Well, our money is green enough at Tiny’s. The LA Weekly finally gave it’s blessing to our favorite Hollywood club.

It was nice to hang out at HTTHs store, No Regrets and explore downtown Long Beach. I talked to Ice we hung out together in the early 80s.  Body Count is the only band that sound even more fucked up than Pantera!

It’s been too hot to move but that did not stop me from attending a cavalcade of events and I still missed quite a few. Motley Cruefest was a hoot. The Vains of Jenna from Sweden tore it up as we celebrated their signing to a very prestigious label. Kid Ego from the UK were also tearing it up. The headline was True Crue starring Vince Neil’s son. I don’t know his name but he has a cruster punk edge to the Motley Crue’s greatest hits. It was a benefit for Skylar; Vince Neil's 3 year old. She passed away from cancer; hence the money was going toward cancer research. The price was 30 dollars a ticket, lots of cool stuff was auctioned off.

I think they were very successful. Alex, Felicity and I stayed from 2pm-2: 30 am, we got the looks that kill! It was like walking into the late 80’s all over again. Lot’s of Aquanet hairspray, good thing there was no smoking, one match and we would have exploded. We had dinner at the Rainbow just like old times except Lemmy was out of town. He was sorely missed by all of us.

 Hollywood wants you!

I was at Hollywood Forever Cemetery for the Ramone's rock n roll high school. They showed footage that has never been seen of Ramone’s and Henry Rollins spoke about how they had influenced his musical sensibilities when he was growing up.  Marky Ramone who said they were the first punk rock band in the world, Linda Ramone….PJ Soles had a moment, Steve Jones kicked a football, and I went with Eric Aleto of the Van Gogh show, which is on TV show Fridays at 10:30 pm channel 24 Comcast. My show Tequila TV has moved to 9pm Fridays on the same channel.

The BBQ at Rock City News was super. I love the trains that Ruben has spent so much time arranging, Ginger Coyote of Punk Globe and the White Trash Debutants and J.D. the drummer from HTTH and I enjoyed the sun’s rays. Tracy from the Peppermint creeps was pink all over, Felicity talked about the announcement she made at the www.Cruefest.com for the Skylar Foundation There was lot’s of drama as always! Isn’t there always? Lanning Gold is having an art show tonight. I'm gonna go!!!
