BEAST HEAT

This one might be hard to take. Are jocks and Foo Fighters really that funny? I dunno but unexpected laughter always feels good.

One of the more unusual moments in my life captured on film. If you can make it until the end, there’s a crowd shot which confirms this Mon Cousin Belge show took place at Lazy Bear. Hear what Tweaker Bitch really sounds like at http://www.myspace.com/moncousinbelge

Here’s another unusual moment with MCB, appearing in the promo video for The Gay Porn Film “The Velvet Mafia

Here is the first video from San Francisco superstars Girls. The video is for their song “Morning Light”. I was going to talk about who directed it and who’s in it, but you can go to Cobain In A Coma for that info. Just watch the video…

Also, check out the SF Bay Guardian write up they got for the show at the Rickshaw Stop with Port O’Brian it was amazing

You should probably go to this becuase a) we are and we’re fun and we know you’ve been trying to figure out how to hang out with us b) its free and (probably most importantly) c) its Nothing People’s record release. Remember, they were our myspace of the week. No? They’re so good! Listen to this, they’re kinda back to getting their Chrome on:

Nothing People - Reinstall

Anyway, this is totally free courtesy of The Guardian (I know! I thought they were only writing about Ladytron and the Juno soundtrack! Ok, thats not fair, they wrote about girls recently, I’m just a cranky bitch after work tonight!).

BELLA BIANCO BIKINI POOL PARTY & CHARITY BASH

Fasten your seat belts as we arrive in style to welcome the summer months. On Saturday 31st of May 2008, imagine the scene with specially invited
celebrities arriving in Lamborghinis, around 100 scantily Clad models from Millennium Agency in the tiniest white bikinis working the red carpet,
Paparazzi flashing at every starlet, the Infamous Giovanni of the Margarita King greeting you at the door with his tasteful margaritas and that is justthe beginning of another party of the year contender by eVita PR.

You are invited to ‘Rock Your Ego’ at the ultimate Bella Bianco Bikini (beautiful white bikini) Pool Party & Charity Bash benefiting the Humanistic
Foster Family Agency. Southern California’s tastemakers, trendsetters and jet-setters will attend another exquisite, exciting and exhilarating party in Beverly Hills.

High profile A-list celebrities as well as young industry professionals will gather for a night of excess and indulgence just like in many historic filmsof Hollywood with a back drop of decadence in the innovatively styled mansion situated in the high mountains of Beverly Hills. ‘Rock Your Ego’will take place within an ultra-modern private mansion with a beautiful garden, heated outdoor pool and spas. We invite you to enjoy another taste of an elegance affair with 5 Stars rating just for execution and pushing the boundaries of lavish parties in Southern California.

The theme of the night tailors to “summer fever”, a white bikini pool party with a super hot swim wear fashion show. We are going runway! Gorgeous
models will flaunt the season’s hottest swim swear line by Andrew Christian & Tyler Rose Swim Wear as well as couture jewelry designed by RAJ Jewels and Guy & Eva by CC Fontana as the DJ plays Top 40 & Funky House to keep the energy high. Some pre selected VIP guests will begin the night with a fast & Furious treat by going for a test drive of the latest Lamborghini.

Early arrival is a must, Red Carpet Entry will start at 7pm, test drive at 8pm, fashion show & charity auctions at 9pm, the bikini battle at 10pm followed by cocktails, dancing, swimming & socializing. We will leave the guests with parting VIP gift bags from selected product sponsors and forward them to view the photographs and video footage of the event.

After rehearsing for this coming Thursday’s show, I had a couple drinks at daddy’s, then the 2 for 1 at Midnight Sun, equaling five, sinking disdainfully into more self-hatred, smoldering at the hideous face of Adam Sandler illuminated on giant screens just above me. Finding my way eventually into Books Inc., whereupon I eagerly listened to author Alistair McCartney reading from his first novel. I sat in a folding chair and watched quietly as faggot after faggot not altogether quietly snickered at me for apparently stinking of vodka. “I’d like to know what the hell they were all douching with!”

http://www.myspace.com/alistairmccartney

Apparently, our young Mr. McCartney, Alistair, (not to be confused with his make believe nemesis, also Beatle, McCartney, Paul, and referred to with no small amount of enmity and spleen under the letter “M”.) was quite the young obsessive, hunkering over many a volume of The World Book Encyclopedia , a young boy in his native Perth, Western Australia, imagining far too much, stoking the fires of his own horrid pessimism and putrid sexuality
You just don’t know if he’s yankin’ ya, gankin’ ya, or just plain making shit up. He is clearly no stranger to the fine art of exaggeration or embellishment.
Alistair McCartney’s first novel, The End of The World Book, is an encyclopedic romp through the author’s faggoty and often beguiling memory, intertwining fiction, memoir and even some cultural history. For instance, and beginning alphabetically with the letter A, which stands for Adelaide, the author’s mother’s hometown, wherein occurred the murder spree of young boys whose bodies are discovered in champagne crates, or the letter “M” for Macramé, “The most significant art form of the decade known as the 1970’s, was undoubtedly macramé, that coarse lacework produced by weaving cords into a pattern.”
Layered like a prose poem, cleverly obsessive and foreboding, it’s been called an alphabetical guide to the apocalypse. From Kafka, Franz to Krueger, Freddy, McCartney meanders through history, antiquity and the very near future, stopping now and then to perversely look up the pant leg of a particularly hairy uncle or to admire the sunburn lines left by a hooligan’s wife beater.
He’s not from San Francisco, although he lives in Los Angeles with his partner artist Tim Miller, so not a lot of sense in regards as to why I’m writing about him for World Famous in San Francisco. I just wanted to give a shout out to independent bookstores in our fair city and to thank them for NOT kicking out a drunk fellow book lover.
