For god's sake, man, don't let that skunky seaweed get its tentacles around you, too.
"dude getting thrown out of Old Eye"? Dude looks like a lady... who looks like a dude.
Movie looks embarrassingly awful, but props to anyone trying to do what they want, as long as i don't have to watch it.
yeah i have dude issues:
Letter of the week
She’s no ‘dude,’ dude
Re “30 gigs, 30 days” by Josh Fernandez and Nick Miller (SN&R Feature, July 10):
I have a minor correction to make about an assertion made in one section, mainly because it’s personal: “Four punk dudes loaf at a merch table, looking stoic, perhaps miffed at the mainstream crowd.”
First of all, I’m not a dude. Yeah, I was one of the “dudes” hanging around the merch table. I was hanging out with my friends Larissa (also not a dude), Eion and Danny, and I guess collectively we were the “four punk dudes” mentioned in the article.
Second: I looked stoic? I suppose I can see someone getting that impression, but I assure you, I had fun with my friends that night. More importantly, the part about “miffed at the mainstream crowd” is mainly what pissed me off.
We don’t give a shit what people look like at shows—that I can say for all four of us. We don’t suddenly get sullen and depressed if we don’t see 10 other kids who look like us. The crowd wasn’t even mainstream—not when they were at a little show like that. (What makes someone “mainstream,” anyway?)
All I was concerned about was hanging out with my friends and seeing the bands I wanted to see. Little else weighed on my mind, especially the people who looked “mainstream” to you. Couldn’t you have talked to us before making assumptions? Nothing was stopping you. We wouldn’t have put our noses in the air and ignored you or anything.
You played the quiet observer well (besides the fact that you didn’t observe the genders of some people), but I don’t know what was stopping you from being a participant, too. You seemed to make a lot of assumptions about other people at other shows in the article as well, and it seemed really judgmental on your part. And I understand that people are naturally judgmental, but considering you seemed to pay more attention to the crowds than the bands themselves, again, I don’t know what was stopping you from actually interacting with the crowds. I suggest you get up off your ass and talk to everyone you decide to make assumptions about next time, especially if you’re going to end up writing about them in an article. Rather than sounding like an old fart who can’t be bothered to drive out to a show with bands who don’t meet your oh-so-high standards, you’d actually sound like you had fun and made an adventure of it. Because reading the article now, it sure as hell doesn’t sound like you had fun—it sounded the whole thing was a strain and a pain in the ass.
I know the Sac scene isn’t as vibrant and active as it really should be considering the talent we have here, but it isn’t as much of a snorefest as your article is—and that I know for a fact.

Sacramento is the most negative city I've ever lived in, it is no wonder everyone leaves. Let's try having an open mind?
I'm totally open to the idea of schlocky local movies at the Crest. That's good uns.
I have to admit fft, if you mistook me for a dude I'd be ticked to:)
