Should I go fishing or get a friend to hang around? Celebrated GAY Summer 2012

Are Morbs and me the only two participants on this thread that DON'T contribute to the Singles Jukebox?

i don't. i've never really written about music anywhere

(for which you should all be thankful)

I feel like I write about new music more than I would like, and yet I love the format and want to be a part of it.

You totally should. I sometimes think about jumping back in -- I haven't contributed in a couple of years.

You jump, I jump, right?

I don't contribute but it's pretty much the only website I read regularly

That and friendblogs

i don't. WORDS ARE USELESS. ESPECIALLY SENTENCES.

how can they explain how i feel about maroon 5

See that's where the numbers come in.

:)

Um. I'm more sporadic than I used to be, but I think I still contribute (in)frequently enough to count. Plus, even when I'm too lazy to write, I put in time curating tracks for review (aka forcing everyone to listen to Marianas Trench and other Canadian chartpop). Alfred may never forgive me.

I didn't review the Mariana's Trench track, but I didn't dislike it either.

Marianas Trench was just serving as metonymy for CanCon generally. Insert Mia Martina and/or My Name is Kay and/or Danny Fernandes and/or um... whoever...

i don't. WORDS ARE USELESS. ESPECIALLY SENTENCES.

fucking hell i was LITERALLY JUST LISTENING TO THAT

also thinking that someone should sample the "sanctuary" vocal somewhere for something

Also, glad youre repping for Canadian chart pop cause I like reviewing even the stuff I hate, though that's generally because by the time it makes it to the jukebox I've heard it so many times that I'm ready to vent (see that awful Heart quoting thing from earlier in the year...Alyssa Reid I believe her name was).

In a Chicago leather bar last week, some DJ was playing Weezer and Dave Edmunds while porn was on the TVs. Very disjunctive.

ALEX IN MTL your presence is required itt Angel Haze

if only so SOMEONE else posts in it kmt

It would be there but I'm at work for another few hours technically. Also, I thought Reservation doesn't come out until teh 17th.

Did it get an early release?!?

And didn't we have a dedicated Angel Haze thread already? Where did we rave about her before?

no, reservation is still out on the 17th, i figured there was enough stuff out to start it, obviously not

we've raved about her in sundry places - everyone in the goon thread ignored her which is why i didn't go in there with it, but i think the odd future thread and maybe one of the EOY ones got +ve responses, which is why i thought a crossover thread would work, but obviously not

It's working, you just need to give it time to get rolling. You're the least patient person ever with this stuff (see: Melanie Fiona thread, other threads) especially since a lot of us don't always check the new answers page when we're mobile - just our bookmarks. :P

I don't either. Let's start our own blog guys. We'll review music from a male point of view

theo gets back in like 4 hours!!!

:D

went to my friend's wedding last night. there was a guy there who might have been on drugs? and actually said "i don't like queers" out loud to our table while we were eating. he also kept asking all the women there to party with him and claimed that he had coke in his pocket.

other than that, good times

luckily his dad (who was also kind of a dick - he told the bride that she should've just taken her husband's name because TRADITION) took him home early

waht do u mean "other than that"? 5-star entertainment

theo gets back in like 4 hours!!!

I think I've heard him say almost all of these lines, but his repetitions can be a source of comfort, like Bob Ross "beating the devil" out of his brush.

Oh man, I just remembered a dream I had last night. I was hanging out with Rev, and he was trying to remember the name of a famous person. He sketched a cartoon to try to get me to figure it out, and even though his cartoon looked like the Pringles mascot, I was like, "Oh, that's Bruce Vilanch." But he didn't know who that was, so we went to the Internet to look him up. But for the life of me, I could not type the letters BRUCE VILANCH correctly in sequence -- every single time I tried, I made a typo. This went on for a ridiculously long time. Finally, I got it right, but the first picture that came up was a super-atypical-looking photo of Bruce Vilanch, like he was wearing sunglasses or had on a hat or was in a wheelchair or something.

JW is kind of animatronic at those things by now, which is why I'm glad I saw him present Marguerite Duras' Le Camion a few years ago.

xp

so d & i jumped at the chance to visit cape cod yesterday, hanging out with our friend whose brother has a house in truro, poking through the flea market in wellfleet, making ceviche, drinking beers on the beach at dusk, and randomly running into nyc friends in ptown who had visited for 'bear week' lol.

a whirlwind of 24 hours, drove home early this AM and now at work and i am going to just collapse

like he was wearing sunglasses or had on a hat or was in a wheelchair or something.

Fuck that shit. What happened to the security?

why does security have a say in programming?

it wasn't regular security, it was a contractor hired for the night, was totally over his bounds, was let go

ftr, I know who Bruce Vilanch is

Guys I think Wild Things has got to be the most convoluted film ever made

more than The Big Sleep?

Rain sposed to bring relief from putrid swamp today in nYC, in time for me to go to Cock Gobblin' tonight (possibly NSFW):

I've basically switched to cutoffs full time now. I think I've worn shorts to work a grand total of 3 times before this summer. I'm now at over a dozen.

i would kill for the opportunity to have someone say 'i don't like queers' at a wedding dinner

I see surm going full Albert Brooks w/ his dessert fork.

ohhhhhh the cock
