So recently I learned that my first concert was Roy Orbison and The Beach Boys sometime in the 80s, at Lake Lanier Islands. I am still trying to track down the date/year of this show but what I would really love is to stumble upon a bootleg of it.

That reminds me:

A video of Roy Orbison and The Voice of the Beehive on ITV's Night Network late-night show, reviewing the week's new videos on a, including I Started Something I Couldn't Finish by the Smiths.

I remember Roy Orbison expressing empathy at Morrissey's sadness.

Internet tells me it was 15 Nov 1987.

Lately I've been thinking about a pair of online diaries that I remember reading around 1999-2001, some time in that range. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact names of the diaries or who wrote them, so Google proves pretty unhelpful, as you can see below. Anybody remember either of these?

1. Diary of High School Nerd - pretty sure this was pretty close to the right name, but now all I can see to find are links to High School Musical fanfic. This was a kid who self-described as a comedy nerd, over the course of it I believe he either transferred from a religious school to a public one or vice versa. I think the guy who wrote it went on to do some comedy writing on the web at one point.

2. Diary of a 40 Year Old Virgin - not sure on the exact title, but it was close to this. It way predated the Steve Carrell movie, which has since made it really hard to search for. The guy was in his 40s and a huge gym rat, but he mostly wrote about his struggles dating and meeting women.

"As for a loser like me, well, all I get is grief. I was at the store getting some Bush's baked beans, and as I was walking down the main aisle, some woman flew out from a side aisle and barely missed me with her shopping cart. I opened up Lou's School of Etiquette immediately. I said, "Excuse me, stupid!" real loud. She kept going and muttered that I must hate myself. I told her, "Awww, shaddup you ol' krunk!" She came back and said, "Excuse me, do you want me to call the police?" I said, "Go ahead, make my day!" She didn't have a clue about how stupid she was. But, she sure knew that I was wrong. She needs to go home and simmer her head in some chicken broth. It is a good thing that I am a benevolent monk."

I remember reading his Loser Living Upstairs diary about 5 years ago and being a little creeped out by the obsessiveness of it all. but this is obviously creative/comedy writing, right?

Loser was up and around again at 12:29 in full pacing glory. If I had to guess, I'd say the blinds are shut and the shades are pulled down. Loser has his own secret, dark little empire, but we know he's pulling the bishop! He sat his ass down again, but now the K-Mart is turned up even more. At 12:37, Loser drained the lizard. At 1:03, Loser was on the phone for five seconds, or else you know what he was doing. At 1:08, Loser is allegedly on the phone for twenty seconds. Then, he turns the K-Mart down. At 1:09, Loser was in the can. Nine minutes later, one flush. A second flush. A third flush. Loser had a THREE-FLUSHER! At 2:02, Loser sprung back to life and broke into a feverish pace. He began pacing in a circular fashion at 2:05. He made three loops, then left at 2:10. He returned five minutes later and then left again immediately. Loser is a man on the move!

He mentions Hearts of Space. Is that the legendary new age radio show?

this funny porn clip of a bloke who looks like anthony kiedis having anal sex but he sings an improvised song throughout (which begins with the line "Now i'm in your ass yeah!") - literal funniest thing I've ever seen and it seems to have vanished.

I want someone to upload a version of Kraftwerk's "Electric Cafe" at 45rpm to Youtube. This is what was used as the Sprockets theme song.

Also I want more Sprockets!

A very whimsical documentary called something like 'Happy Birthday Piter" or "Happy Birthday St. Petersburg" (Russia, not FL) that has lots of interviews with 40-somethings about their lives and contains the line 'Perhaps I can cut you a thinner gerkin?' I think it came out about 7 years ago.

A year or two ago I found an archive of what appeared to be a currently running public access show (or an otherwise obscure local television show). Probably from the greater New England area? I think it was called "____'s Show". The tagline of the show was "____'s Show is your show." It seemed like every episode had different hosts, or were pulled from a large pool of hosts.

Frustratingly any link to a sale on an Acid Jazz box set that was on my facebook feed this morning. Supposed to be through Harmless records but I can't see the box listed on their homepage, even for full price.

I can't find the thing that was on my feed earlier either. Assume that any time i go into facebook from another source i'm not going to find exactly the same feed as I had earlier anyway. Plus I don't think I was intentionally linked or subscribed to anything to do with harmless records. Did wonder why it was on my feed but it did look tempting.
I just was on my phone when i first saw it and have far less access or display on that than on my computer. Now can't find it again. Looked on their Facebook page and it seems to be weeks behind the current date and no sign of the offer which I think was newer.
