What can I say? This lovely young lady is, in my humble opinion, the real deal. It’s the sort of voice and lulling guitar one might follow into a wooden forest just to…sit and…listen…read a book…eat some Nasturtium . It beckons…that’s it…it really does. And it has a sort of Dory Previnesque intelligence to it as well, foreboding and warning. Just beautiful! I can not say how lovely she really is. I think she is a major talent and all you folks, faggots and straighties alike need to do yourselves an enormous favor and keep an ear to the wind on this one…you too might find yourselves on some grassy hillside, with nothing but the wind and Camus.

Franz Ferdinand After Party

Carletta Sue Kay

So, another Friday night and my bitter half, a.k.a. Last Call Lee, managed to talk my fat ass up and off the couch to attend The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence’s 30 year anniversary party at Yerba Buena. It was pretty fun and DJ Bear Z. Bub was spinning, so all in all, not a complete waste of time. Little did I know however, that I would be quite literally attacked and spat on by a pudgy pugilist by the name of Bill, “husband” of local neredowell “artist” Danyol. I have to say, it was one of theeeee single funniest things that’s ever happened to me. I was with GingerSnap when out of nowhere, the gregarious geriatric suddenly appeared, puffing his chest out like some senile simian, rather comically pushing into me, a plastic tumbler of bourbon precariously held aplomb from one hand, snarling, “if you EVER write or SAY anything bad about my “husband” ever again…(slurrrr…slurrr)….I will make you wish you were never born!” I turned to Ginger Snap who had the undeniable look on his face as if to say, “do you know this old drunk?”…and tried to calmly walk away. But this would not do for Daddy Bill. Oh no! Once again, he cut me off, and thumping his chest against me, (EVERYONE WATCHING)…he screamed, with little embarrassing bits of spittle in the corners of his all tooooo close mouth, “Listen you SON OF A BITCH! you dont know who you’re fucking with!” It was only then that I realized that he was completely soused and LOOKING FOR A FIGHT. So I guffawed. Yes, that’s right. Not a chortle or a squawk, but a full-blown guffaw I tell you. Suddenly I could not stop laughing. It was truly wonderful and I personally would like to thank Grandpa Bill for the free entertainment. He really made my night. But what could I do? What could I say? I was always taught to respect my elders and to not crack them in their well deserving snouts for invading my personal space…so I just kept laughing. Of course this only made him angrier. Honestly? I could not stop laughing. It was a great moment in the life of drunk old bastards. Too funny.

Neil has put together an awesome lineup!
