Macho Rules.

2009-03-02T15:54:00.000-08:00

Macho Man Randy Savage is a great dude. He chose to live his life to the most extreme. He was an amazing talent in his day, and in the present his character is well acknowledged. He was a the mascot for an interesting form of beef jerky with a catch phrase that was born for him. That skinny Slim Jim dude sucks. Macho owned that shit. Although I wasn't a big fan of Macho when I was a kid because I was more of an Ultimate Warrior, Bushwack Brothers and Junkyard dog kinda dude...I have grown a real great appreciation for Macho Man Randy Savage. He style was SAVAGE!

I just got blessed with one of these. Mine says Rizzla and it's metal, and it's fucking bitchin'. It's got a nice curve not unlike that of a standard flask should, and plenty of space to store papers (rolling, money, planes, etc.,.) and buds (pot, reefer, friends, etc...) and filters.
Rice from Hawaii gave it to me. Thank you Rice.

Hey everyone this is Ryan. I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. I plan on fixing that. Here's an update on whats been happening:

Mike from White Pee let me borrow this delay pedal for my keyboard. I guess this is a great pedal. Multiple gearheads have commented on it. I've been spending a large chunk of my free time figuring it out. I pretty much have all the sounds I want to make locked in. I was taught classical piano and eventually jazz so I'm baffled when it comes to electronics.

This is my next purchase. It runs about $80.00 new which I thought was expensive, but apparently it's cheap for a pedal. Starting a "serious band" is expensive. PS invite me over to jam someone.

I've been listening to:

Arthur Russell

The Clean

Did you know the WWE wrestler "The Rock" and now serious actor Dwayne Johnson considered Arthur Russell a father figure? I guess Dwayne's mom was a professor at NYU and hung out with the downtown art crowd. Dwayne worked as a bouncer at some of the clubs Russell would perform at. Eventually they developed an intimate rapport. It's in some issue of the New Yorker. Ian told me that and it really tripped me out.

Speaking of the New Yorker, I've been reading it every week. I asked nana for a subscription for Christmas and of course she made it happen. I love you nana! We don't have a television in our house so this is my only news source.

A couple things I've been reading in addition to the New Yorker:

John Fante

Charles Mingus (I highly recommend this. The number of women he supposedly balls is out of control.)

I went to CCA last week for a Jonathan Franzen reading. Genius writer/genius riffer.

Mi Ami is my favorite band going in San Francisco right now. I'm tempted to say the best too.

I'm headed to Los Angeles next weekend with my girlfriend. Here is our plan so far, but feel free to give me some ideas via the blog or myspace.

LA County Museum of Art. I'd like to see the Chris Burden piece at night. Like in the photo.

Peres Projects. Terrance Koh is funny.

Opening Ceremony. My girlfriend is going to throw down here I'm sure.

I saw these photos in a blog Jabar turned me onto (2 or 3 Things I Know). If you've seen my bedroom then you know how much this speaks to my soul.

1906.

I've got a good case of The Stone right now.
Kinda like a good pack of baseball cards. There's gonna be a few typos and bench warmers, but there should be a rookie card in here or there that will be worth something some day. Except maybe if they'll just end up being a bunch of bums or maybe if they get lucky (and you will be considered too) they may just die and be immortalized like James Dean or Kurt). Yeah man, I left his last name out. The same way that hippies say Jimi or Bob or Bob Or Jerry. Do you know both Bob's? Yeah you got it.
Iggy.
Patti.

Now we are here. Fucking Iggy kills. "Real cool time....a real cool time!!!"!!!
I'm putting out an Everly Brothers zine pretty soon. If you wanna submit something anything to it, please bring a drawing or some shit you would rather do instead to me at Recycled Records soon because I am getting tired of stretching out this really cool run on sentence. Put some shades on that baby, he's cool. Real cool. And finally...back to "a real cool time... a real cool time".

Also:
I need to be blessed by you (reader) with a scanner. I know you got one kickin' around and you're trying to live small but can't help cheating. Pass it along.
Or even if it has paint on it or even a crack, it would suit me fine.
I heard that Spacemen 3 records are worth like $200 now.
I believe that. Everybody loves those guys. Freaks too.
The Fairport Convention trip me out when I'm high.

Currently reading:

This is a living paper. I can't elaborate, because I'm too lazy.
Suggested donation=$1.00. Sliding scale.

Contribute to the zine sooner than later. I'm working on an Elvis Costello one next.

Got mine at Thrillhouse Records. Go. Daniel's birthday is on Friday and there is a show at The Knock-Out to celebrate. A bunch of bands are playing just songs by He.
Owsley's Children will be there (that's Me and Robert and Anders). Playing I think.
Either outside or inside. Most likely both.
I'm reading a book entitled "Money" by Martin Amis. Wikipedia that shit.
I just rung (rang?) out a big jock looking dude (maybe he's an ex)with big buck teeth and low surfer hair who bought a David Bowie 45 and The Fixx lp.
He paid with a Betty Boop Vis credit card. Blue Front potatoes taste good.
Why do bicyclists always stare down the rude cab drivers when they make a funny move on the streets? Plain old cars, I understand that. But cab drivers play goof moves all the time. Cab drivers are crazy fuckers. Like murderers and police. They have a born into thing. So why would mugging one do anything. Like, they don't get scared. And You look like a brat if you mug these fuckers too. So don't do it man. A cabbie will one day save you from getting herpes, or long distance crawling.

BONUS!
How To Make A Tape For A Couple Of Friends:
1) 60 minute tape
2) Pick at least one song for one of your friends that you want him/her to hear.
2a) It's nice if you think that they haven't heard it.
2b) It's nice if one of the other friends that this tape will reach loves song with you.
3) The rest of the songs are just good filler. Like garlic.
4) Dub it, daddio.

I have one a brewin' in my pot right now.

I don't know much about this group, but I know this record is cool.
It was kicking around our kitchen for a while, getting minor play on the Fisher Price hi-fi and soon made it into Zach's room (it's his) and then into mine.
And then back into Zach's room (it is his you know) and I just brought it back into my room last night.

Zach told me that they were behind these guys a few days on the road, and they ran some pretty heavy tabs that they skipped out on. Tough.
Heavy Aftermath feel. I dig it. I dig it all.

Scam #5 (and a half).

2008-12-30T13:37:00.000-08:00

I received this magazine in the mail from near the Atlantic Ocean.
The story is about the life of Hunt's Donut Shop in San Francisco.
A must read for anyone that lives in San Francisco and digs crime, history, donuts, doughnuts, the Mission and how the Mission became a central location for the Latin Community as we know it now. Jam packed with some of the best stuff I never heard. But that's every book for me, so I dunno...just find it and take some pride in knowing something about something that does not live anymore but once did.
This place had a sign that read: Open 25 Hours.

The Pretty Things were (are) part of the bad boy scene in England. They were long hairs when the Beatles were singing covers and when the stones were doing Bo Diddly.
True: The Stones were bad, but these guys rivaled that. They wrote their own songs, made arguably the first concept record (SF Sorrow), had an insane drummer, ate acid, one guy had a big beard which was disgraceful to popular music, one guy had the longest hair in rock history at the time (arguable. See: The Barbarians), and I was told by my agent that they stole The Stones' notebook that had the Bo Diddly shit written in it and got into knife fights with Brian Jones. Brian Jones Stones is where it's at and where it always has been. Like Pig Pen and The Dead.
But, dig the Pretty Things if you have before. If you have not...hit a record store and get SF Sorrow for under $10.00 new. Or I could tape it for you.

So there are a few things here and a few things there coming at you at a million centimeters an hour. Zoom!
That's not really a whole lot too fast. Zoom.
First of all...I took some dope from someone because I was jonesing it so bad that I just needed it. Just in case I couldn't get it at home. Do not fret my friend,
I will put some more back where I got it from. Sorry man. But! if you didn't notice then good. Perfect. It wasn't much anyway. And it was pretty weak shit too. I mean is. Perfectly plain. Thank you too.

I just saw John Frusciante. He was just browsing. Oh well. I kinda wanted his autograph, but he was too busy NOT saying goodbye to me as he walked out the door.
At least he knows how to greet hello with his hand. I can handle that. When someone doesn't say hi or hello or anything else, I get bummed out on 'em. Why not acknowledge someone that is there? Why Not?
He's got that (Hello Hand). Plus a few cool looking guitars and some pretty killer sounds whether you dig it or not. I dig that group. All the way up to BloodSugarSexMagic or whatever order that goes. Californication has some good tunes except for the title track. Yikes.
But they do mention Cobain, so that's okay.
And Guess What:
There are only two major labels left. Warner and Sony BGM or something like that...
and Warner has only one act that keeps them afloat and that is The Red Hot Chili Peppers and their contract ends next year. That'll be the end of WB. Could be a goodie. Maybe "The Chill Peps" (as kids call them these days. What happened to The Peppers? Did Chad Muska influence your youth? What's he up to?) Any how could the Peppinos put out a sonic record on their own label? Or start one and put out weird shit? Or, good shit? Or shit shit. Either way, shit is shit and even shit has to shit's.

Christmas was good. We got it off for more than 18 hours straight. Banana peel!
Point me at the scenery!

I just got some new to me old to the world speakers from my window mate Tasty Dave.
Sansui SP95 (or something close to that number) that rock and rule. The look is pure beauty and the sound is smooth and so warm. There is a volume control on the speakers themselves. Ouch! Boom boom boom. I blew the last pair OUT the night Obama won the election, but it wasn't because of that. It was because we were happy that everyone was happy, so we cranked out some rock and roll from all over time and danced until the fat lady sang and then we danced to that. The next morning I put on Nirvana's Nevermind and I heard some fart like sounds in the speaker so I pulled the face off (hello Nick Cage. Or are you John Travolta?) and out fell the rubber of the rim of the woofer of the speaker of my room. Repeat once more for the other one.
So about a month and a half later, Dave and I are rapping words and rolling smokes and he notices the fucking shit sound and look (face off), so he gave me his baby Sansui(s). The old ones were Cerwin Vegas too. Dang. Oh well, they suck and these ones kill. Slaying sounds.
So as a result of the new sounds I can FEEL, I started playing some of the records that I spent alot of time with early in my life (years ago, but not that long ago) ... such as Sail Away, Blonde On Blonde, Hi Fi Snock Uptown, Nilsson Sings Newman, The Static Age and The Everly Brother Greatest Hits (more than those but alot of these) because Everything just sounds so D I F F E R E N T.

MOST OF ALL: The Velvet Underground and Nico. Holy Shit. You should really come over soon and listen to this Record with me. I am not at all kidding man. Man.
If only I had some Sublime. Just kidding. I never heard that stuff on LP.
I'm sure it don't make much difference. I had a tape. My friends had cds.

(Seth Rogen just walked in the store 12:37 pm)

Read Frank O'Hara, listen to The Everly Brothers, write about Love,
and live long as You wanna.

Text Messaging with Moses.

The Electric Book

Plot Summary:
The Abortion is a genre novel parody concerning the librarian of a very unusual California library which accepts books in any form and from anyone who wishes to drop one off at the library—children submit tales told in crayon about their toys; teenagers tell tales of angst and old people drop by with their memoirs—described as "the unwanted, the lyrical and haunted volumes of American writing" in the novel. Summoned by a silver bell at all hours, submissions are catalogued at the librarian's discretion; not by the Dewey Decimal system, but by placement on whichever magically dust-free shelf would best, in the author's judgment, serve best as the book's home.

One day a woman named Vida appears at the library's door. Although shy and awkward acting, she is described as the most beautiful woman in the world that American admen "would have made into a national park if they would have gotten their hands on her." Vida falls in love with the reclusive librarian and soon becomes pregnant, necessitating a trip to Tijuana, Mexico to secure an abortion.

Rants (Moses)

2008-12-06T18:21:00.000-08:00

This is our like, 200th post anniversary. I went down to El Chico to buy some Texas Oranges. I don't know how they got that name, but it might be clever? I just like'm.
Sonny Chiba is an amazing artist. Martial. Streetfighter is an amazing must see movie. It's filled with action packed everything. Sonny Chiba is essentially the first hip martial artist.. He gets some shit for being "sloppy", and I can understand ancient Chinese secret and all that shit, but he wasn't sloppy. He was just "sloppy".
He played a fighter that he created who was taught by no school.
He learned from the streets ie: travel, scrolls, banned old wise dudes, etc...
thus making him a super soldier of no discipline other than those of the old.
He's basically like the Harry Smith of Martial Arts. He's hip.
Rent Streetfighter. Or I could lend it to you.
Or you could get a copy for a buck on Polk Street right across from Good Vibrations.
I made an all Harry Nilsson mix tape for Mixing People. It's got some shit from everything pretty much. Even some songs from his "bad" records. Well, records without hits. Well, radio hits. Plus an Everly Brothers medley...and you know how I feel about those dudes. They are a big influence on Sleepy Beach. Also Beatles 2.
Anyhow, I made four Harry Nilsson tapes to give away.
That's the end of this rant. You see...if I don't type for a minute then that's where I end.
Also, I called this Rants (Moses) because it's not just me that rants. My friends do to. I didn't invent it.

I just started a band called Sleepy Beach.
Yeah, I know...it feels good. Watch out for us.
If there were a computer that had a tape deck on the side, I'd be jamming it right now for both you and I, but somehow they got around that and make you have to pay for some chords to plug from here to there and vice versa, etc...
It took me a few seconds there (at etc...)(see above) to write down what I was going to call this column. JK. JK is like a State in that way ie:California is to CA, as Rants are to...I mean...Just Kidding is to ___. And You say: JK.
It's fun to type to music. Only because it's not fun to type to music.
I am listening to The Everly Brothers all night.
I recommend that everyone over the age of 20, be required to listen to The Everly Brothers at least one night a week. And that would be the bare minimum.
You see.
Shit...They are singing Blueberry Hill, and it makes me fall in love with this song.
But I'm sure I'll hear Fats doing it on the radio by the end of the day tomorrow, and I won't be in love anymore.
I sleep next to Dylan Thomas with His leaves, a train whistle, and The Trout Fisherman's Bedside Book.
I think that this is the end of The Rants pilot episode.

Fade Out.

ps: Watch Out For Sleepy Beach.
It's Beautiful.

heavy & swollen adolescent memories droop with this one but you shouldn't be ashamed to dig quality indie rock, if that even exists as a distinctly antagonistic genre anymore - not french kicks on the borders PA system. these guys had one of the tightest riddim section pereniums in the business and make me miss the days of clean, bludgeoning pop compositions with painfully bold honest lyrics and unabashed art faggotry. this band served as a sturdy strait between my shifting interest/boredom of stock hardcore acts, finally ending praise of Fugazi and expanding interest into prog & psych. someday, a day to arrive soon, we're going to see a severe backlash against the current trend of poorly arranged effects soaked half cocks & moaning inarticulate vocals hidden behind oceans of reverb [guilty, thoroughly -ed]. when that day comes the nude embarrasment of mid 90's white boy earnesty will rise again. The video below from 2002 is unbearably cute despite already showing it's age but how can you not love a concept as simple as "hey sup? what's your favorite record?"

My trip to San Jose

Found some great shoes for $6.

My girlfriend spotted some vintage Moises Rios at Streetlight. I had some great scores. Vangelis, Van Dyke Parks, the first Sparks, Yellow comp, Oliver Lake, Grin, etc etc.

This was at the Caravan. It's a machine that serves Patron. I don't really get it.

Scandalous hynas were all over.

I'm really feeling SJ.

I found a Monoshock 45 for $1 but there was no image for it on google search and I'm feeling lazy. However, I did come across this photo of Kelley Stoltz when google imagining the words "Monoshock discography." Kelley is a fantastic musician and friend of blogger Moises. The internet is a small world.
