October 20, 2007So I met up with Darren at M Shanghai around 7pm to get some food and then headed off to Bed-Stuy in Brooklyn to see Underground Railroad to Candyland. Todd & Jimmy from Toys That Kill (my favorite band in the whole world) are in this band so naturally I would go out and support them on their three day Brooklyn tour. Here's Geoff at M doing his sexy pose: Darren and I get to the venue, which is less venue space and more busted up punk rock house in the ghetto. The place was packed and right as we walked in Underground Railroad to Candyland took the stage. And by stage I mean, a corner in the living room. Todd: Jimmy in the corner: As you can see, it was another sweat fest:
This is actually a bag of wine she is drinking. I think it is the bag from Wine in a Box?? I bet Dad doesn't have that in the cellar! This fine young man just moved here from Philly. He wants everyone to know that Philly sucks and he is so happy to be in Brooklyn. White Girl Dreads! (or is that white boy dreads?, not sure) Yay! Punk rock After URTC, I could barely take the heat any longer. I was so sweaty and gross I had to get out of there. Plus they were spraying beer all over the place, and the entire third floor of the punk rock house became one huge sweaty mosh-pit, so Darren & I split and went back to M. Just as we walked out of the punk rock house, the cops showed up, so we seemed to be leaving right on time.
Actually now that I really look at it...WTF is he eating? ewwww. Green mush with maggots and worms in what it looks like. Ciao for now, Jocelyn October 20, 2007 02:01 PM CommentsNo one puts Jimmy in the corner! Posted by: Jill at October 20, 2007 02:54 PM Oh I forgot to say how the 20 year old punk girl at the front door made fun of me for not being punk enough. She really let me have it because I was wearing heels. They're fucking Marc Jacobs I told her, then she laughed at me. Then I asked her how old she was (20), and I told her that I was so much more punk rock than her when she was 5, and someday she would grow up and understand that Marc Jacobs is punk rock for grown-ups. She sighed and agreed. Then she told me her name and we hugged and all was well in the world of punk rock at the punk rock house!!! I won't even tell you how much trouble Darren got into for whipping out his Blackberry! aha ahahaa h Posted by: jocelyn at October 20, 2007 06:07 PM Oh my God. After seeing those pictures and reading your follow up, I don't think I can handle a punk show tonight. And if YOU got called out for wearing heels, what hope is there for me? At some point, Joce, you just have to realize that we're from CT and embrace it. If you guys end up at M tonight(which I'm guessing there s a 70% chance you will), let me know. I feel more comfortable there. Posted by: Alexis at October 20, 2007 07:20 PM Oh no Alexis! You'll be punished!!! I was threatened last night several times by Jocelyn because I couldn't go, and she said I would have to take her grandma to church if I didn't go tonight. I obviously didn't go tonight either. Do you wanna join me and take grandma to church? I'm not from CT and I'm a catholic, so I will probably go to hell if I comply with the punishment... But you won't, you'd be right at home... Posted by: Gertie at October 20, 2007 07:52 PM It looks like Geoff is eating chicken chow mein and quite frankly, it looks really good. I didn't exactly fit in at Thursday night's punk adventure though there were admittedly many cute boys in the crowd. I get older, the punk boys stay the same. Posted by: David B. Fruit, Esq. at October 20, 2007 08:47 PM Screw those kids! They buy punk packaged, tied up with string. It's not how you dress - it's a way of life. I thought they still teach that on Sesame Street. Posted by: Crystal at October 21, 2007 10:01 AM I think Gertie and I have a date at church next Sunday... Posted by: Alexis at October 21, 2007 12:39 PM Gertie is taking glamma to church and because she is Catholic she is gonna burn burn burn. Alexis you don't need to go to church with Glamma....your life is punishment enough. Posted by: jocelyn at October 21, 2007 05:20 PM Me and my roommate saw some weird half-yuppie/half-hipster white girl with dreads at an Antibalas show a few months ago. He gave her the title "Human Scion Commercial" Posted by: Jr. at October 23, 2007 11:07 AM you shoulda had todd spit on her! Posted by: paulie at October 23, 2007 01:52 PM I loathe White Girl Dreads. I should just walk around with scissors in case I ever see any, I will be prepared. You can pin her down and I will cut! It's a health violation. Posted by: jocelyn at October 23, 2007 04:39 PM |
