attention Cuomosexuals!

new dvd/ep came out today for all the diehard weezer fans, yay!

MSL is a super awesome organization which allows you to donate your blood and help a good cause. The best part is that you always get something awesome in return, besides the fact that you are saving someone's life. They go around to schools and give away free concert tickets and CDs to people who donate. They are always at Warped Tour and give away VIP meet & greet passes to people who donate and basically lots of other cool stuff.

To kick off the Warped Tour season, they are having this FREE show at the key club this thursday. it's funny that it's presented by monster energy 'cause that stuff probably kills a bunch of people with it's horrible taste and side effects.

Persistence of Bad Casting

Note: you can't slap a moustache on Robert Pattinson and call him Salvador Dali...but apparently you can...Little Ashes is the movie about the life of Dali. will be released on May 8th here in the U.S. I nominate Shawn Harris of the Matches to play Dali. He looks more Spanish & call do "crazy" way better (see below pics). and for shits & gigs, pics showing the resemblence/hottness of Harris/Pattz.

"all i wanted was a pepsi, just one pepsi"

happy easter everyone :)

burger bar

new to In The Shack: food reviews!

two weeks ago, ate at The Counter in Marina Del Rey, CA

at your table, you build your burger from a checklist on your own mini clipboard...with a mini pencil! loads and loads of toppings so the combinations are endless (poached egg, bacon, mixed greens...) and you can pick your own sauce if you please (i got the bbq, went well with the pineapple) several different cheeses to pick from, but if you are trying to steer away from the dairy, the veggies patties are totally vegan, totes man. our party of four shared an order of sweet potato fries, which i recommend of course. they offer dessert, which i did not try, but there is always another time.

my favorite part had to be the decor. framed photographs of the famous z-boys of dogtown adorned the walls as well as other photographs of sixties california surf culture. there is also tv and a bar, making it a great place to just have some fries and hang out.

my creation:

artist of the week #2

Leia Bell, sister of weezer guitarist Brian Bell.
draws, paints, silkscreens gig posters, co-owns the music venue Kilby Court, & lots more.
