so should i go? would it be a worthwhile trip?

i'm thinking high black population = records!

high black population = records!

but d.c. proves this wrong!

― amon (eman), Friday, 28 October 2005 00:13 (twenty years ago)

I like both. Spend one night here, one night there. I have found much better records in the trash in Baltimore than any record store in DC.

For record shopping, go to the Sound Garden in Fells Point, Baltimore, there are some other good stores around there too. DC doesn't really have good record stores any more. Go to Sonar, maybe? The Ottobar?

I like DC, it is much more fancy and uptight and expensive though.

There's a potter's field close to the Travel Plaza! Travel Plaza counts as most disturbing "destination" in Baltimore area, imo.

grizzled bag lady at lexington market approached me for a cigarette this evening. i got as far as "i don't smo-" before she screamed "get the hell outta here!" about a foot away from my ear. and then proceeded with a torrent of abuse at the top of her lungs that was still going when i was a block and a half away c|:0{

― amon (eman), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 02:56 (twenty years ago)

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 06:00 (twenty years ago)

The Ottobar seemed like a nice place, the band that played there the night I was there was kinda boring though.

i want to go back with someone (preferably a longhair scummy hippy-type or homeless dude) and have them jump the fence so you can get a better sense of the scale.

― amon (eman), Monday, 21 November 2005 03:49 (twenty years ago)

Baltimore is perplexing.

Maryland has the best flag though.

Hahaha, I can't believe you took those pictures (and I'm glad you did).

― barf bag special (mistymartinez), Monday, 21 November 2005 07:34 (twenty years ago)

We had one of those in Lexington -- not sure if it's still there. It was when I was 8.

Haaaaaaaaa! I pass 60s and 70s on the way to Tarantula Hill.

― barf bag special (mistymartinez), Tuesday, 22 November 2005 11:00 (twenty years ago)

did it open in the 80s ?

towson borders went out of business? fuck a barnes & noble

― amon (eman), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 01:48 (twenty years ago)

Maybe it opened in the 50s and they played music by people making music the way they thought it would sound in the future!

I liked the amount of used book stores in Long Beach, CA. I feel like B-more lacks.

gareth, i saw dukes motel. wtf were you doing way out there!? did you go to happy day diner or little texas?

― amon (eman), Friday, 2 December 2005 05:47 (twenty years ago)

what's the deal i heard on the news of people stealing light posts in baltimore?

and what's up w/it being the second worst city to live in besides detroit?

― jaxon (jaxon), Friday, 2 December 2005 06:42 (twenty years ago)

they were taking the metal and selling it to scrapyards, which is sort of a junkie pasttime in order to feed the monkey, but the light posts thing takes it to whole nother level.

second worst according to.. ? it probably is though.

CAMDEN

― dabnis coleman's ghost (dubplatestyle), Friday, 2 December 2005 14:48 (twenty years ago)

ironically camden is only 20 mins from apparently the BEST place to live in the us

― dabnis coleman's ghost (dubplatestyle), Friday, 2 December 2005 14:49 (twenty years ago)

weird, despite being tied with detroit as second-biggest murder capital in the us (after camden, natch), we are only sixth most dangerous city. hmm.

Barefoot in Baltimore
Heel and toe with you

Summer turns the stove on
And fun begins to cook
Barefoot walks in Baltimore
With empty pocketbook

Laugh at sizzling sidewalks
Don't step on the cracks
Old folks try to catch their breath
As children catch their jacks

Barefoot in Baltimore
Heel and toe with you

Baltimore is music
Dancing in the street
Half-chewed Dubble Bubble
Tugging at our feet

Melted tar in crosswalks
Crab shells in the park
Pavement frying our poor toes
Until long after dark

When night comes we can go walking
On the shores of Chesapeake Bay
A silence tailored for talking
And a love with so much to say
