:lulz: I'm fishing out the derpy, bad-dancing ones. There's some good ones, but my Quest is for the silly pictures.

A couple of them. I'm combing through dozens of albums from dozens of raves. The group who throws these rarely does it in town anymore and I refuse to travel out of town for local acts when there's a considerably less douchey group running some, too (there's three guys running FEM, this group, and Salmon Pance is the only one I like). I'll be sure to get pictures from the New Year's rave I'm going to.

Let me restate this:  YOU need to have taken the pictures, or be in them.

Bonus points if your weird friend shows up.

He's just that skinny. and no idea. occasional homeless/retarded people show up.

Oh, that's not creepy or anything.   :lulz:

Back in the bad old days, we (me and my fellow mooks) arranged or provided security for that exact reason.

And all the guys there are really skinny.  You should feed them more.  Red beans & rice, that sort of thing.

Eh. That guy spent a lot of time talking about raves from the early 90s and how fucking awesome they were and apparently someone on the local circuit knows him.


Salmon Pance eats like a starving horse. That's just his biology.

Well, then, allow me to suggest that Nurse Freeky make a house call, so she can hit him with the meat hammer until his metabolism behaves itself.  You have to be firm about this shit.

Why did he move?

Going from Fresno to LA is like going from Tucson to Phoenix.  Almost.

Post by: Juana on December 12, 2011, 09:20:07 PM
He wants to be the next big thing in electro and LA is where you go for that? I don't know, but I do know that he has met quite a few big names through the one he founded already. I haven't actually had a chance to hear him play, since he seems to schedule his shows when I can't attend.

The other way around. Fresno ~ Phoenix. Hot asphalt, Mormons galore, Mormons in SUVs, senseless Tea Baggery, etc. etc. Fresno is Gilligan's Island incarnate.

Also, it's not the level of evil and stupidity that makes Fresno more like Tucson.

It's the incredible failure.

LA, like Phoenix, succeeds.  But if you live there, you don't care.

So, he's going to where that's the big thing, to cut his teeth among established people?

He wasn't a business major, I take it.

Well, you could. It'd give me a reason to go to Tucson. But I'd like to wait for the gem show in February if possible. And thank you. I know that's a sacrifice for you, so I appreciate it.

Sounds pretty great (and I do owe you tapioca). I would like to get out there. Besides you guys, one of my favorite cousins lives out there and I haven't seen her in a long time (if you see a woman who looks like Uma Thurman with fire engine red hair, that's her). Perhaps over summer.

You should totally come for real and totally kidnap him for real.

I can write up the ransom note if you like.  "IF YOU EVER WANT TO SEE SALMON PANCE ALIVE AGAIN, YOU WILL LEAVE A GARBAGE TRUCK FULL OF PORTUGUESE MALE PROSTITUTES (PRESCREENED FOR CLEANLINESS) AT THE CORNER OF 14TH AND MINNA.  dO NOT CONTACT THE POLICE, OR WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ASSURE HIS SAFETY."

We have a bunk for you, in the room next to Freeky's.  He gets the couch.  On the plus side, it is a very comfy couch.  Transportation is your concern, though, as we actually need all 3 vehicles right now.  It's about a 30 minute drive to the gem show, but you're better off being dropped off, because parking in this city is a fucking NIGHTMARE during the show.

Freeky, you will need to ensure that Monkey is with Bruce on the given dates, should this materialize.

As much as I would love to go to the gem show (I'm the spawn of two generations of professional rock hounds), it's really not practical for me to get out there during school. Except maybe spring break, if I (we?) have the money. And thank you for the offer to bunk at your place. :)

No sweat, though hotels aren't expensive here ("aren't expensive" being a relative term, of course).

Shit, you have to meet my dad if you get down here.  He's a FREAK for rockhounding.

We have a bunk for you, in the room next to Freeky's.  He gets the couch.  On the plus side, it is a very comfy couch.  Transportation is your concern, though, as we actually need all 3 vehicles right now.  It's about a 30 minute drive to the gem show, but you're better off being dropped off, because parking in this city is a fucking NIGHTMARE during the show.

Um, the Tucson gemshow is THE convention for gems, jewelry, and rockhounds, world-wide.  It's in February, takes up most of the downtown area (the convention center isn't nearly big enough), and fucks up parking forever.

Google "Tucson gem show".

My mind is producing much more interesting images than what Google gives me.

He sounds like a cool guy, from what you've said about him, so that'd be pretty great. :D

Imagine me with 25 more years to get weird, and add in the capacity to totally geek out over things like desert rocks.

When I was 6, he told us we were having a "Donner Party Thanksgiving".

Needless to say, I tried my hardest to warp my kids the same way.

Were you successful?

My son ran off to the (relative) sanity of the US Military, and my daughter has stated her plan to murder me when I'm done paying for her college.

So, yeah.

Thanks. I'm completely strung out on final exam anxiety and brainpills, so I couldn't seem to put two and two together to make "google it" :lulz:

This looks awesome. I will have to try my damndest to make it out there sometime; that way I can meet all you high-altitude desert weirdos and have the pretense of it being related to my education!

Derp. I know you've mentioned TGG's plans and your son is responsible for linking you to the Cancer Jesus vid. Still fried. Will be fried for a while.
