The other night at the Trowbridge while chatting with the bartender he told me "You know what I like about your DJ night?" I asked what? He told me "Its mostly girls that show up. Really hot girls."

EXCELLENT MOVIE IDEA

vampire72@msn.com — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 03:29:32 GMT

I love talking to Alexis, we always have very thought provoking and very productive conversations. Tonight while talking to her I came up with a bizzare short-story/movie primise about a man who thrives working clothing-retail to meet and hook-up with the women who work there.

He gets off to having sexual experiences and obtaining those he works closely with on a day to day basis. After he has sexual encounters with one or several women at each department store/retail outlet he quits and finds a job at another store. He compulisively gets off to meeting women at women and proceeds to leave the store after each successful encounter. Eventually he finds a new position at a new store, and along with it a new women. Only this time she and him hit it off very well and he is overcome with actual feelings rather than shallow sexual fulfillment. Something hes never felt before and must overcome his past and enter a relm of self discovery.

Its all up in arms but who knows, I might run with it. I've always wanted to write a book.

I HAVE NICE FRIENDS

Inspiration

vampire72@msn.com — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 21:52:13 GMT

I get discouraged sometimes. But then there is always people who constantly inspire me to keep on giving my best effort to pushing Something Cold. Musical stagnation is everywhere, I want to break that.

"I'm not even sure that I can make it but I really feel the same way. These always fall on work nights for me but Stevie is one of the Dethlab DJs and Deadbeat is just fucking amazing. I'm actually working on getting Deadbeat out to Lansing for Neon and will even pay the gas to make it happen. Most people just don't get it. Deadbeat does."

I found my friend Jay (Fellows) saying that to one of his friends who was interested in SCIV. It made my work fully work it.

vampire72@msn.com — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 02:00:38 GMT

Even Japanther likes Christian Death.

Suck it.

Guess i'm not DJing at Blondies.

vampire72@msn.com — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 00:49:28 GMT

Keep in mind Blondies is a sleazy heavy metal/punk bar that newly reopened in Detroits industrial riverside. This is the message I recieved back from Wilhelm, the clubs promoter in regards to my request of residency for Club Sin.

you mentioned that at your last monthly thursday gig you did a $260 or so bar.
that is too low for what we would need at the club.
if you can build your monthly up to $500 or more in bar sales then we might be able to sort something out.
i appreciate the offer though.

thank you

What do you expect me to pull in Necto club sales? Christ man! People buy beer, cheap beer, when I spin. Not mixers, cocktails, and chicken dinners. Pish posh!

Last night's FUCKING AWESOME FEST was fucking awesome, but not only because of the, well, fest, but because of the happenings before the fest. Me and Alexis arrived and sat outside waiting to get bracelets to get in from Steven from Marco Polio and the New Vaccines when we see this guy walking down the street with plaid pants on and generally kind of looked very...Bellevillian as I put it. Too many bracelets, skateboard shoes...ya know. Well we strike up a convo and share our stories and get together know eachother. Hes a super nice guy who goes by the name of "Jussen" and we all quickly became friends. Me and Jussen have a lot of ties in the Detroit scene, as he is ROOMATES with Wilhelm K from The Works. Kind of small world, Detroit. At any rate, he offers to get us all crunk before the show we we bought a pint of Burnett vokda and Faygo and head off to a dark sidestreet to get pre-Magic Stick buzzed. Within minutes we wobbled back to the Magic Stick and catch a lame punk band and wait for Silverghost. I meet up with Michael and Stevie, and see a few familar faces along the way.

Silverghost was super good, and after that we caught F'KE BLOOD who really tore the place up with art-punk energy. I saw Anthony and his crew who we all hung with for the rest of the night. Jussen also seemed to have hooked up with one of Anthony's boys as well. He brought this girl with him from Riverview whos name escapes me but is totally gorgeous and had some sweet dance moves and sense of style. Might need to do some investigating.

ADULT. was AMAZING. I have never heard of a show of theirs that packes and it quickly turned into a skuzzed out loud as fuck electro-punk dance party. Me and Mike got our slammin'z on and me and Alexis bumped asses to Glue Your Eyelids together as well as Nite Life. Ah! They seemed offput by being back in Detroit. I might just be their general "i'm so unaware" personas, but they didn't seem to really be excited to be back in the city that they grew up in. I dunno.

UGH, Still tired. Might go back tonight to see Deastro. We'll see.

vampire72@msn.com — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 22:30:32 GMT

I've been listening to Soft Cell all day, so i'm fairly certain by the end of the night i'll be getting hammered in the ass by a leather daddy at the Eagle Bar in Detroit.

But I came across an amusing Facebook bulletin courtesy of a Mike Donigan:

"i have home made macaroni and cheese for whoever can hook me up with something really really really cold (literally cold, not that DJ night in hamtramck...dammit, i didn't mean to plug that...seriously)."

HAHA. WIN.

vampire72@msn.com — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 22:39:50 GMT

I have a big ass collection of GUCCI POUR HOMME and DOLCE AND GABANA THE ONE cologne samples cos I am too po' to buy an actual bottle of each. So I roam Sephora's, Nordstrom's, and Macy's asking for sample bottles. I am the epitome of a penny pincher right now.

vampire72@msn.com — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 02:56:51 GMT

Okay, so why does Cleveland, Ohio have to be so damn rad? Their record stores are incredibly bad ass. That alone had me wanting to move my ass right to the Steel capital of the world. In the end I scored:

Silk Flowers - LP
Charge - Perfection 12''
Gruppo Sportivo - Mistakes 12''
Gruppo Sportivo - More Mistakes 7''
Briliant Colors - Highly Evolved 7''
Sex Gang Children - Maurita Mayer 12''
Lucie Cries both of their 2xCD anthologies (FREE thanks to Wayne of Garten Kirkhof)

CLEVELAND, you money sucking bitch! I had to put back 13th Chime, Cultural Decay, Mayfair Set, Dum Dum Girls, Zola Jesus...pretty much the entire Captured Tracks/newer Sacred Bones discogs.

Also, sucks Josh lives so far away, hes a bad ass guy. Love him!

Fuck yoooooou

vampire72@msn.com — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 02:09:42 GMT

UGH, WHY DOES EVERYDAY HAVE TO BE FUCKING AWESOME? Thats why they call it "Fucking Awesome fest". Thanks Magic Stick for making it too fucking awesome. I don't know what day to go to! Maybe all....maybe just to see ADULT. I have to frickin' see ADULT. Ahhh! And Deastro again! And Art Brut would be cool too...but we'll see.

Have you ever met someone and had a moment in a conversation where you just got the "yeah, this person isn't for me!" ? Here is a cut-paste example of a real life case of it.

11:38 PM Justin:
Record hunting is my favourite hobby and thing to do with my free time.
I love record shopping sooo much

11:39 PM Shay[{summer …:

loser lmao

Yep, right about there did it.

vampire72@msn.com — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 00:15:36 GMT

I need more people who are good listeners and conversationalists. I feed off of other peoples energy, and when there is none, I am stuck with nothing but awkwardness. Thats not fun, don't make me not fun. It'd be nice to have someone who I could ALWAYS talk to about my concerns, feelings, life outlook and would be happy to listen. I have one or two friends who do, you know who you are. :)

Luhhhh you.

Also going to Cleveland on the 24th to see the Kominas with Joshy Ganzberg. :) This is going to be a rad mini-road trip! Woo.

DJing in Pontiac with my buddy Alex

vampire72@msn.com — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 01:08:11 GMT

Saturday, November 22nd. DJ DEADBEAT w/ DOWNTIME. Crofoot, all ages, 3 bucks.

Hot beats, and fat skeets. Or is it the other way around?

http://www.myspace.com/lemizoid

COME ON OUT AND SEE ME SPIN.

Ugh, fuck off!

vampire72@msn.com — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 22:40:27 GMT

Oh my god. Quit trying to ruin something good for me - something that could make me soooo happy and change me. I haven't been in the best spirts lately, but then I have a possible reason to change that and make me totally happy. You are so freaking crazy and annoying sometimes. Everyone can see it, and its embarressing you and you don't even know it!

GROW THE FUCK UP. Also, Really? Really? Are you honestly this immature?

I need about tree fiddy.

vampire72@msn.com — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 19:17:31 GMT

I just need something to drink to wash this chicken down! UGH. SOMETHING.

I haven't stopped smiling yet!

vampire72@msn.com — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 23:15:40 GMT

This has been the most amazing weekend. Like...ever. I'll do a vague report of it later.

The thought of working from 4AM-12PM is going to fuck with my Christmas.

Like a Joy Division wet-t-shirt contest and a deaf-mute Hasidic guy doling out blowjobs.

vampire72@msn.com — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:27:43 GMT

THANK YOU. I don' care how much you like the Ramones, its fucking true. They were good yes, but they were a one trick pony. Every song is the fucking same idea to a different beat and rythem.

You guys get sort of unfairly lumped in with all the 77 punk groups. Were you into them or part of a different scene?

Colin Newman: We preferred the American groups like Patti Smith, and the Ramones. The Ramones were basically just a concept, heavy bubblegum. They should have just made one album and left.

From VICE Magazine.

ALSO, I will be doing a MT/MOUNT SIMS CD LISTENING PARTY EVENTUALLY. STAY TUNED.

Take your mannequins and shove them up your ass

vampire72@msn.com — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 00:26:12 GMT

Okay, fuck this. So today at work was the general array of crap that neither me nor Kayla needed. We arrive as usual, after I pick her up due to her car being broke'd, and meet up with Val who is her usual cheerful morning self with only good things to say about us. Ugh. She makes us tear down a wall of clothes and put it back up in 20 minutes because when this head honcho visual comes in she'll expect us to have it done in 15 minutes and what not. Thats fantastic....but ridiculous expectations. Apparently this girl, Mocca (you know she nicknamed herself after watching way too much Americas Next Top Model and figuring she was too fat to do anything productive herself, so she'll nazi stomp teenage clothing stores) has made people cry before because shes so demanding of visuals. She asked someone before "why are you even a visual?" if she askes me that I'll straight up say "because I was told i'd be an assistant manager and somehow that mysteriously fell thru, so you get back with ME.". I don't mind what I do, I just find the unnessisary bullshit that Val feeds me and critiques us on to be wrong. Everyone in the store can see my distaste for her. And I go out of my way to play around with her and not take myself seriously and enjoy myself. Which I can see she thoroughly can't fucking stand. Thats right, I get my work done AND enjoy myself, my associates and customers. Sod off.

Val supposedly asked Gina if I was elligable for a raise because I make only EIGHT DOLLARS/8.00 an hour, and visuals START OFF making NINE/9.00 an hour. Apparently I need to WAIT SIX fucking months to get a raise. Okay, if I am a visual in 6 months, something is pretty fucking wrong, and I will NOT remain a visual for 8 dollars. I am (un)officially looking for a possible new job. How does H&M pay? I don't care if I am full time, no one can fucking live on 8 dollars an hour. I am not in high school, I am in the real fucking world in a bad economy. I am not playing fashionista, I am doing my damn hardest. If Gina thinks "so highly of you (me)" then why fuck me over? Prove you think highly of me, pay me more. I mean, you can't even give me FIFTY CENTS MORE?

I really need a good break from this. And this weekend will be it. I am sooo anxious for it. I can't wait to do a mini road trip and pick Angela up from Toledo. Google maps has the option of seeing the turns and streets and its adorable. Reminds me of like Northville and such. Easy drive, less than a hour. Then i'll spend the whole day having a BLAST. Ahhhh! I can't wait to meet her! I hope she has a fun time. We're going to take a ton of pictures to narrate the day and our adventures. Heres to a good time! I am borrowing a bit of money from my mom (who offered, of course) for the weekend. She was really nice to offer, considering I am dead broke right now. Also Angela is helping pay for a lot, which is so sweet and considerate of her. :) I will definitely repay her and when I visit her neck of the woods soon after will do my share of making it rain.

Or snow more like it.

I feel winter. I feel it touch me and never call me back.

vampire72@msn.com — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 23:48:43 GMT

Dude, work was sooo fucking stressful today. Gina, the DM will be in our store tomorrow, so she better approach me and either (preferably the second)

1. Talk to me about the raise Val asked her about for me.

2. Talk to me about being an assistant manager at Fairlane. I need money and power, bitches.

I also found out my old manager, Jordan, hired me based on wanting to plow my tender behind today. I am flattered and pissed at the same time. My company is fucked up. Failever 21, amirite?

I am sooo excited for Saturday. Oh my god, its soon!

Anyways, going to bed soon, I need to get up super duper pooper early tomorrow morning. Nighty nite.

It pays sometimes

vampire72@msn.com — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 03:42:34 GMT

I got skeet in the cut on my hand from work today. And it stung.

Thanks for being my friend and reading this!
