universal city walk is a shithole and it costs a fortune to park there, too

Fuck parking there, there's a Red Line stop.

Paramount is a much nicer lot than Fox, Sony, or Universal IMO. It still has a faint golden age of hollywood aura to it while the others feel really corporate and '80s. I've never been to WB though, and I don't know what any of the tours are like.
― geir was right (wk), Tuesday, 17 May 2011 00:05 (thirteen years ago) link
I like the Warner lot the best. But I've been there in a business capacity, not on the tour.

just now checking. my show ended friday but i am in their group show for the artwalk, which is up until friday or saturday of this week. art walk was fun, very packed.
― jeff, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 04:53 (thirteen years ago) link
i always expect to see them around the major stations. i have very very rarely stiffed metro; it's so much more worthwhile to scrounge up the $1.50 than to have to pay a $250 fine. if you're gonna get hassled by the fuzz, at least let it be for something *cool*.

where do u guys take Raggett for Arcade Fire karaoke?
am thinking of flying to Long Beach from SF, as it's only $84 and everything else is too slow.

going to the pruitt-igoe documentary at the l.a. film fest on saturday. it's downtown at l.a. live.

This is a vision. To avoid.
Where did we go last time. Nice room, a little loud though. We all still on for that mid-July Saturday meetup?
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 16 June 2011 21:54 (thirteen years ago) link
the place in koreatown? i liked it, but the english-language song selections were limited.
― are you are missing whiney (get bent), Thursday, 16 June 2011 21:57 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, i would vote for max karaoke instead (there's 2 locations, one downtown and one on the westside - haven't been to the DT one but presumably it is close by a subway)
― badtz-maruizm (donna rouge), Thursday, 16 June 2011 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm not ready to commit to a specific night yet, I have ppl to talk to.
also not really a karaoke nut.

― the charo and the pity (donna rouge), Monday, 27 June 2011 14:39 (thirteen years ago) link
ok, when I'm able, why don't I buy 2 tix for that one on the 13th?
Pizzeria Mozza: sans res, can I go in and eat at the bar?
Do you guys want to drink in Hollywood, Silver Lake?
― joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 13:49 (thirteen years ago) link
In my case (assuming we're still talking Saturday the 16th for a FAP) it'll have to be afternoon drinking, both Hollywood and Silver Lake are feasible. Will need to be back at Union Station by around 4:30 for the regular dinner with friends I do each month down here.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 14:07 (thirteen years ago) link
the 13th sounds good! and i can probably drink the whole livelong day on the 16th so that's ok by me
― the charo and the pity (donna rouge), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 16:32 (thirteen years ago) link
very decadent option. I'm OK w/ doing a diff night (Friday?) if matinee drinking not good for others, but really I need to finalize my other plans soon so I know.
― joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link
Friday night would be out for me due to other plans, then again I am but one voice. I was talking with Cunga the other day about this and he's v. much down for Sat. afternoon as well.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 18:51 (thirteen years ago) link
It should be noted that that is the weekend of Carmageddon, but considering as I seem to be the only person on here that a) lives on the west side and b) has a car, I guess that really only affects me.
