My Favorite Couple in the World

Jim Carrey!!!

He was so great on Living Color! Character Actor at his finest!

(The Origins) of Avant-Garde Music (FZ @ 22 on Steve Allen Show)

"....scream at his mother to get him a Pepsi."

FZ on Capt. Beefheart.

I will be spinning 45's at the Moloko on Mississippi. Friday after Thanksgiving. I am so excited. I will be playing an eclectic mix of soul, psych, garage, funk, hip-hop, 80's and dance. It will be fun. Moloko is about a block and a half down from the Laughing Planet on Mississippi. It is my favorite bar in Portland. It has a "white" Clockwork Orange theme and has great infused alcohols.

The NEW Me!!!

DJ ThinK

1928 Peace Dollar - Philadelphia

Today I sold a 1928 Peace Dollar for $250. I was holding out for $300, but quickly realized that it was an unattainable amount. I can be such a greedy little haggler. Anyways though, it rules because I can now buy my new frames and lenses. They are vintage 60's and cost me about $250. SO I will always remember how god smiled on me one day and told me to buy that Peace Dollar at that garage sale for about $2 bucks. JOY! I have a pic of me in the glasses, sans lenses. I will have them in a few days. I think they will help me succeed in life. FInd a new job. Leave Laughing Planet and Buckman Elementary behind me, and in the past. Man...WILL that FEEL GOOD!!!

KRAFTWERK

Easily their strangest yet most catchy, but "What the Fuck!" song. Pocket Calculator. This is close to the first video I ever saw of this, but this is all German. Anyways......what can you say. Completely ridiculous! Great dancing. BIZARRE-O! I was in love instantly and tracked down many of their vinyl records when I was in high school. Beck showed this on 120 Minutes.

This is RAdio Clash

Cultural Phenomenon!!!!
So much going on here. The Clash plus Hip Hop!
This is also how I saved the Laughing Planet Halloween Party. Glad I picked this up on 45 in England after all.....

New Order: Confusion

I remember how weird it was seeing this video for the first time. Skrawny British dudes singing, with awesome early House/Kraftwerk/Afrikka Baambata Beats. It just didn't make sense. But...New Order sure does.

Lately....

I feel betrayed by many people that I feel that I know well. And more importantly, who know me well. But as I always say, believe what you want. I am writing my own book here people.
