i misread that as "hooper" as in "Mr. Hooper" and then I remembered that he died.

poor ol Mr. Hooper

Speaking of Hopper...
The only thing everybody at Lollapalooza has in common is the willingness to be painfully gouged for a ticket. Even crowds that might seem a bit more like-minded (at Pitchfork, para ejemplo) make for a grim and dystopian scene
... no one at the Reader knows Spanish well enough to change that to "por ejemplo"?
― jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:25 (seventeen years ago) link
also, that is a jammin version of superstition
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:26 (seventeen years ago) link
Yeah, I love that clip.

Has anyone been to the Great Taste of the Midwest Beer Festival in Madison? I may be performing there next weekend....although I'm not sure the guy fully comprehends our show. I mean, from what I know, small children are at this festival.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:32 (seventeen years ago) link
Yeah, my band plays there every year. :>
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link
What is your show? I don't see many kids there, just wasted parents.
ps it's a great time
Burlesque...that's why I'm confused. At least one of the other dancers and I are game for the gig, but we need to find out details. We can definitely modify to make it more family friendly, but it's still gonna be burlesque.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link
family-friendly burlesque is an oxymoron, no? Or at least not much fun. :(
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:36 (seventeen years ago) link
The group does have some numbers that are straight up dance numbers, no clothing whatsoever removed, and a couple of us sing. But since several of the other dancers are unavailable next weekend, this would probably be strictly solos.
― sisut, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:38 (seventeen years ago) link
Hmmm, it's basically a bunch of drunk Midwesterners drinking unlimited beer in a sunny park during the day. Maybe it would be weird, but there's a pretty great vibe there, so I could see it working out fine.
(the website says kids are allowed btw)

What kid wouldn't love watching some pole dancing and "Pour Some Sugar On Me" with a corn dog and some fries?
― Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:44 (seventeen years ago) link
that's not burlesque, either!
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:46 (seventeen years ago) link
ISN'T IT
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:46 (seventeen years ago) link
hahahaha that's straight up stripping
― dan m, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:47 (seventeen years ago) link
It depends on how the corn dog & fries are used.
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:47 (seventeen years ago) link
Tell that to Amber, Angel, Montana, and Quinn.
― Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:49 (seventeen years ago) link
...
oh, you said Quinn.
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:51 (seventeen years ago) link
the name Montana still instantly makes me thing of Montana Wildhack from Slaughterhouse 5.
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link
hahahaha
― dan m, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link
not Hannah Montana?
― sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:53 (seventeen years ago) link
you know me better than that.
― kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:54 (seventeen years ago) link
Take it to the Teenpop thread.
― jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

― sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:56 (seventeen years ago) link
DID YOU KNOW: she's Billy Ray Cyrus's daughter?
― jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:57 (seventeen years ago) link
That I did know!
― sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link
and she's disney's pawn, no?
I don't know who you people are talking about.
I'm trying to wean myself from "cheating" on crossword puzzles, but it's not going very well. I can only seem to complete one w/heavy internet assistance. :(
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link
there are support groups for cheaters like you.

― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link
xxpost Yep.
We are talking about Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray's 14-year-old daughter, who appears on a Disney Channel TV show called Hannah Montana in which she plays a girl named Miley Stewart who performs as a pop singer named Hannah Montana. In real life, Miley Cyrus skips the middleman and performs and releases albums as Hannah Montana. Shit's huge among the tweener crowd. And certain ILXors.
I do crossword puzzles on the train, mostly, so I can't cheat.

Of course I do. Then I just have to concentrate harder. Or ask Kr for help when I get home.

xpost
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:24 (seventeen years ago) link
Yeah, I like the name! Although I don't know if it is pronounced with an E sound or an I sound. Also, I had a dream last night that we were hanging out with the baby in Cr1ss3y 6 and K3rry wouldn't shut up about The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
― jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link
It can be playmates with mine and 3van's kid.
― Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link
I'm going to go post that on their blog now.
I just emailed eric to congratulate him & ask for tips on how to pronounce it. That is a HILARIOUS dream, dude!
