mummy shots

sunday night i took off at 4:30, hopped a quick 48 bus to valencia street and walked through the dazing yet soft heat to amnesia to hear the mummy shots. four of my lovely lady friends were all in ghostly white with red eyeliner. they are the back up singers, xylophone and tambourine players. the band played a show with a deathly theme, with a little funny sex stuff thrown in. accordion, guitar, a wierd stylus instrument david bowie used in the 80s, piano, drums, sounding almost a little like daniel johnston at times. i had a few pint glasses of sangria on ice under the shimmering pink fabric hanging from the ceiling. my band played here a few times in a different lifetime when the bar was the chameleon. the basement thren was full of kind of dirty looking happy punk rockers and cigarette smoke and furry dogs. that was almost a decade ago. afterwards there was more drinking and talking and a little cool breeze coming in a window off the street.

looking at all the death-referenced song titles on the free cd yet feeling so light and happy i remembered out loud that most people who think a lot about death are very in love with life. then i had one last slurp of my vodka and grapefruit juice.

not a profound thought but it pleased me at the time. it is still very very hot here. time for a wet washcloth and some short stories in front of the fan to wind down. i should be doing work, oops.

Sounds like fun - I'm been really craving some live music lately but that just seems to be an unattainable goal until summer.
Keep cool and remember someone in the midwest loves you!

p.s. Niko wants to wear a "Miles" shirt every day!

i believe i am a neighbor of yours...i was blogging about the skatepark many months ago and somehow in my search for a link to it i came across your blog. today i saw you (i think) walk out of rainbow with your daughter, so i thought it was time to introduce myself. here is my blog: http://familiarconversations.blogspot.com/
there aren't a whole lot of words these days. the second child arrived this year, can't find much time for much outside of sleep. anyhow, i relate with some of your writing and frequent the same places so i thought i should stop my voyeurism and introduce myself. i'm kim...i live at 24th and harrison. i have two girls who are 3 years old and 10 months. there you go.
