well I haven't posted anything in awhile. my bad. my laptop broke for awhile. hm, a quick update.

there was a basement show with One Win Choice, Saint Catharines and The Holy Mess and it fucking ruled. there was also that fucking incredible show at the church with Glocca Morra, Tigers Jaw, Algernon Cadwallader and the Menzingers. it was such a retarded show. knew so many people there, it sold out, and every band was a blast. it almost felt like fest again. also Jeff Riddle has been living with us for awhile. i know for Dans birthday we went to the station bar one night. i walked there with Jeff really drunk after going to rays birthday bar. then we had a surprise birthday party for Dan that friday night at Lauren and Marys house and it was crazy. got very drunk and had a dance party or something. uh, what else has happened? there was an acoustic show at the fernon house. Hop Along and Restorations played. I didn't watch either of them. just got really drunk. that was last thursday. I went out to dinner with my dad that night. he finally saw my new house and was very impressed with the upgrade from my old house.we went to royal tavern and drank that night before i went to that show. friday i worked and then after work decided i wanted to get drunk. so i bought a jug of whiskey and greg barnett came over, so did zack schwartz and will and andy (his roomates) and sabrina. eventually jeff woke up and we all got really drunk. eventually andy and nick came home and then greg jef sabrina and i went to the dolphin, where i threw up in the bathroom and passed out at the bar while girls were stripping. then rode to laurens house to sleep. saturday i went to royal tavern with greg barnett, greg karlowitch, agusuta, jeff and lauren!, we sat with some of laurens friends we ran into there. and then we came up with the great idea of buying a keg in the day time and having a day keg party. and then we actually followed through and did it. we had the keg opened by 3 and kicked by 10. we had the party and the menzingers house and it was crazy. so many people showed up. all in all a VERY sucessfull party/day keg thing. we kept tallies of our beers and keg stands on our arm. i had 19 marks and one K the next morning. we called it the "xxx.casey jones. stay positive.support your scene. jeffs birthday party.day keg.xxx" and it definitely lived up to its name. i was home and in bed by 11 that night. sunday i had to wake up very early for work. after work i went home and layed around for awhile then lauren came over and we made brinner and watched Adventureland and it was great. today i worked and after work i jsut hung around. finished booking a show and then made dinner and watched SNL, which was GREAT and then went to acme and now im home.

I'm very stoked cause I'm having a pretty good week. just getting lots of good news. doing merch for Luther tomorrow at the Fire with Diry Tactics and Cobra Skulls. then doing merch for The Great Explainer at the Stone Pony on wed with Full Speed Ahead, Anti-Flag and Bouncing Souls. then merch for the Holy Mess at the after party at the lanes that same night with Banquets. then doing merch for The Menzingers thursday at the Stone Pony with Dirty Tactics, Strike Anywhere and Bouncing Souls. then friday is the Holy Mess/Menzingers/Loved Ones show at the OX. then sunday is the acoustic show i booked at the Banana Stand with Jeff Riddle, Ark Royal, Luther, The Menzingers and PJ Bond. jesus, and i have work every morning. i am going to be dead.
also found out i'm going on a weekend tour with Glocca Morra and Ah, Horse Hockey at the end of the month and the saturday date is happened less then a mile from my parents house. so THAT works out pretty nicely.

man, i hope making this post doesn't jinx anything.


Highlites - Still Life
 



one year

this past weekend was my one year anniversary with Lauren Tazza, and it has been a fantastic year and I couldn't ask for anything more.

The Haverchucks - All My Time With You

this week.

i worked last wed. don't think i did anything after work. thursday i switched my friday shift to thursday and worked in the morning. after work i cleaned the house a bit and showered and hung out with dan. we bought flowers and dropped the vaccum off at lauren and marys house then walked home. then we watched Harry and The Hendersons to kill time until midnight when we had to go pick up the girls from the airport at midnight. we got them and lauren wasn't feeling well. she got me a Fucked Up seven inch and a Playboy from the 70s from her trip. we then went to bed. the next day she was pretty sick still and we just hung out at her house all day. took her to the doctors at some point. didn't do much else other then lay on the couch and watch tv. i got to wathc a bunch of snl documentaries. we went to bed eventually. saturday she was called into work early and i went home and showered and hung out at my house. eventually i went over to dads haus for the show i booked. walked to another house with mike to get the pa and speakers then walked back and hung out with tim burke for awhile. eventually everyone got there. Ah,Horse Hockey played first and were ok. to be honest i didn't really watch any of the bands. Brickmower and Backpocket played next. later on tim told me "That was one of the best Philly shows I ever played in any band." and i've done shows for him in The Measure [sa], Gordie Howe Hattrick and Helloids. after them Spraynard played and then Glocca Morra played. that night was lauren and i's one year anniversary. both the last bands announced that and lauren was not stoked on that. after the show we just went home and went to bed. sunday i woke up there and hung out for awhile watching digital shorts with lauren then went home. worked out and showered and did some laundry but my dryer broke so i ended up being delayed and missed the lemuria/byrds of paradise show. me and lauren went out to dinner for our anniversary that night at devils den. it was very nice. afterwards we got ice cream and pop corn and went to my house and watched Scott Pilgrim Vs The World and most of Hot Rod. then we went to bed. i was woken up at 4 am by my roommates being very loud which sucked. monday i worked early and when i got out i came home and went to my room and watched SNL for a few hours. eventually went downstairs and hung out with andy nick greg phil and tom and ate tacos. me and greg came up with a new funny thing to do while talking and tom confessed he made the missed connection for me. eventually i felt drunk and tired and went to bed. today i worked again. it was super icey out so i had to take the subway to work which sucked too. oh well. this week is almost over and this weekend is going to rule.


The Rival Mob - Hardcore For Hardcore

terrible recap

son of a bitch. i haven't updated this in so long. um, in the past two weeks i know i watched some more rocky movies, new years happened, i went to some shows and spent almost two weeks alone cause lauren went on vacation and i was really sad. that about sums it up.

here are some pictures from new years where everyone got really drunk, we had 14 countdowns, adrian sprayed our ceiling with champagne, dan sprayed matt manhire with champagne, lauren broke the lamp and passed out, dan shot fireworks at our neighbors house, i cut down a sign, and the rest becomes a blur.

and the next day....

 

as far as shows...i know i saw lavis blake and glocca morra at the banana stand, and both bands were great. i know i saw omar and black wine at the banana stand, black wine were great and played my requests, and omar were great but i heckled them the entire time and candice punched me mid song. i know i saw bomb the music industry at the fire, it was sold out and i didnt watch the openers and talked to patO and yosco all ngiht. and i know i saw luther and everyone everywhere at kfn and spent the entire night drinking with patO and eating pizza.

also know i spent a random saturday with jenni and watched the movies Brothers and Big Fan, the latter of which jenni bailed on me before it ended. both were ok. i also know i have spent WAY to much time lately watching Saturday Night Live, all random seasons and read pretty much everything on every season of snl on wikipedia. 

i don't spend my time well.

i'm gonna try to change that in 2011? i really want to try.

Cheap Girls - Ft. Lauderdale

my Rocky post

i'm about half way through watching all of the Rocky films, and i can't wait to see who the villians are in the last two, cause at this point they have honestly been getting better and better

Rocky 1

Apollo Creed = eh

Rocky 2

Apollo Creed = eh x2 (it's the same fucking guy)

Rocky 3

Clubber Lang = pretty nasty

Rocky 4

Ivan Drago = fucking crazy

i'm about 10 seconds into the final fight between Rocky and Ivan and I'm only assuming Rocky wins, but I can not wait to see who the villians are in Rocky 5 and Rocky 6 'Balboa'.

Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger

"...not in a good way"

okay so last monday night i watched Exit Through The Gift Shop and it was great. I've even watched it a few times since then. after that i picked lauren up from work, dropped her off at home and went back home and went to bed.
tuesday i had truck at cvs. it wasn't to bad. i think i was there for about 12 hours that day. after work i went over to laurens and hung out there. don't really remember details actually. oh well.
wenesday i didnt have truck for the first time in like FOREVER.i know i spent the morning hanging out with lauren for a bit then went home and hung out at home for most of the day. alter that night i went to ikea to meet this lady who made earrings for lauren that i was giving to her for christmas. then i went back home and got pretty drunk and hung out with blackbeard, yosco, o, redbeard, murphy, scotty and a couple other people. lauren came over eventually and hung out too.
thursday i woke up and had a interview at 2. hung out at my house before that. then drove up to it. it ended up being a scam. after it i went home and packed my shit up. alex came over and picked me up and drove me home. got home around 5 thirty. then took a shower and ate dinner with my family for the first time in a long time. after that i went out and bought some booze and then went to dunkin donutes with some people and then me and jenni went to cayces house and hung out there for a hot minute then i went home and went to bed.
friday i woke up and was blown off by jenni so i waited around for marc and we went to borders and i got a book for my dad and we ran into tom cladek and talked to him for awhile then marc took me home. i showered and drove to laurens house for christmas eve dinner there. alot of her family was there and it wa a lot of fun. ate very well. hung out there pretty late, i think until like 1 and then drove home. i stayed up pretty late that night and finished watching Rocky 2 finally. it was really great. i get so into it when i watch those movies.
saturday was christmas. i was the lastest i woke up on christmas ever. went downstairs and opened presents with my family. i got seven seasons of the simpsons on dvd, some clothes and $250, so ya know, a good holiday. after that i watched Horton Hears A Who with my dad. then i went and picked up lauren at her house and we went to my sisters house in brick. spent most of christmas day there playing with my nieces and nephews. after we were tired of that we went back to laurens house, bridget came with us and then took my moms car back home and me and lauren drove back to philly. when we got back we exchanged gifts at her house. she got me Aziz Ansari tickets at carnegie hall and she blew up a poster i made for a show at terrordome and framed it, so pretty much the best gifts ever. after that we started watching ETTGS but we got tired and started falling asleep in the middle and went to bed.
so sunday i woke up at laurens and walked home pretty early. it was snowing pretty bad all day long. i was bored for most of the day. i watched Rocky 3 and ordered pizza and sat around for most of the day. i shovled the sidewalk at one point. eventually danillie and tony came over and hung out. then zack jp kiko and andy came over, and arik a little after that. we all sat around and watched Party Down and ate pizza, a lot more pizza was ordered that night, and left at my house, which i am sitll eating. eventually lauren came over and hung. thene veryone started to leave around 1 and me and lauren went to bed,
yesterday i woke up at my house with lauren. we got dressed and walked to her house to eat. we ate laftovers from christmas and finished watching ETTGS and then watched some more Party Down, showered and then walked back to me house and ate leftover pizza and then left to walk to the show. what a shitty walk in the wind, especially carrying all the mic stands. got there early. greek favoruteis were there waiting. then ape up! showed up, then the other bands. it was a fun show, but not very profitable. greeks played first, but i didnt watch them. then ape up played and i watched most of there set. then boys and sex played and i missed there set to collect some money and play video games. then peter the piano eater played last and was really great but i only saw one or two songs really. i'm just really really burnt out on live music these days. after the show we piled 9 people into a car (i was in the trunk with the singer of ape up! and and a bunch of sleds and my snow shovel) and drove to 11th and wharton and started watching Predator 2 but then me lauren and daniele went back to there house and hung out with mary and dan, which was great cause i hadn't seen dan in a few days or mary in forever. mary/dan gave me a anice scarf for xmas too which was unexpected and nice. i went to bed pretty early after that.
today i woke up and went to some mexican place with lauren and ape up and got burritos. it was cool hanging out with them again. after that me and lauren walked back to her house, where i found out the HFTH show was canceled so it left me with nothing to do tonight. so i walked home, hungout with all my roommates for a bit and then drove lauren to work and here i am.

The Sainte Catherines - Headliners Don't Load (But They Kill Cops)

pretty good week

so last monday i hung out with lauren in the morning and did a bunch of nothing for awhile. eventually i sucked it up and rode the worst ride of the season so far, and rode up to brians for dinner and hung out with him and alex, dale, lindsay, cayce and jim. we ate some pasta and then just hung out in brians room for awhile. eventually i rode back home in the terrible terrible cold. watched some tv and went to bed.
tuesday i woke up and got hoagies with nick and then watched a bunch of 30 rock with nick and andy/ then took the subway over to west philly and went to perrys house. hung out there for awhile and played with his cat. then we packed up the car and went and picked up jeff in fishtown and went to the subburbs for the show. everyone was really good. bearhug (paramedic) played first and were really good. better then paramedic even. after them lighten up played and were really great too. all the new songs were awesome, and so was the gorilla biscuits cover. then sidekicks played and were awesome. like legit great. played a few new songs that were all very awesome. then spraynard ended the show and were spraynard. good set but very short. after that perry drove me home and i ate and then rode over to laurens house to go to sleep. wednesday i worked truck and it was truck. god i hate that job. after that i went home and rested for a hot minute. then luther me tony and lauren went to brooklyn for a show. got there in pretty good time. luther played first. were ya know, luther. then timeshares played and were really great. they get better everytime i see them play. then the sidekicks played again and were so incredibly great. they played all the songs that i love that they didnt play the night before, including small, and the island, but didn't play looking.then the crappy ghost robot ninja band played last but i slept through there entire set. all in all brooklyn was great. got an entire pizza and saw some friends. it did suck cause it ended up being dans last show with the band. we drove home that night and i slept the entire way home.
thursday i am not sure what i did during most of the day. i know that night i went to the diner with lauren and danielle and met nick greg andy phil and his girlfriend. had a pretty good time there. then me and lauren went to her house and watched What We Do Is Secret, which was absolutely great. so stoked on the whole thing and the bronx as black flag ruled. went to bed after that.
friday was the house boat show. not sure what i did earlier in the day but i know i went with nick andy and phil to the luther practice space and helped them get there stuff for the show. on the way back it was brought to my attention that the house didnt have a pa for the show. so i scrambled around to find a pa.

finally was able to borrow the one at the banana stand. but when we got it to the show space we discovered it did not work correctly. perry had to call someone to bring another one. i came very close to having a panic attack/heart attack that night. eventually everything ended up going great. luther played first, then omar then dry feet. i didnt watch any of the opening bands at all really. i was busy collecting money and making sure the cats that lived at the house wouldn't get out (not so much fun). finally got to watch house boat though. they were great. they played a bunch of new stuff but it was just great to finally see them live. after the show i got to talk to mikey erg for like a very long time and he told me 1."he recognized me from lots of shows and seeing me arund the country" 2. why the ergs! really don't play shows and 3. that he felt "honored" and "stoked" that he got to play the terrordome. so all in all, a VERY good night. after everything was wrapped up me and lauren walked to my house and went to bed.

saturday morning we had to wake up early and go to richmond. we left around eleven in the morning. made really good time getting down there. went to jeff riddles horse farm first. was so great to see him and dookie kong. we hung out there for awhile, drank some beer and i generally pissed off a bunch of horses. after that we took jeff and went to this dumb bro bar called the starlite. ate expensive bad food and drank expensive shitty beer and got the phone number from out slutty waitress. then we went to the show and it was all around just a terrible terrible show. this si your life played first and were pretty tight but just a hardcore band. then some other touring band played and were pretty terrible. like very very bad. i only watched it to avoid the cold outside, cause we weren't allowed in the house. terrible show. then luther played to a much smaller crowd then the first two bands did. then hold tight played and were tight was well but still just a hardcoreish band and sounded like a good lifetime rip off.  after that we packed up pretty quickly and drove jeff back to his farm and then we made a very long and tiresome/crappy ride home back to philly. got home around 5 thirty am and went straight to bed.  slept pretty late sunday. after that i went over to laurens and watched tv with her and danielle and then we went over to ava house for leo's birthday. had a lot of fun there and got very drunk. probably to drunk. went home around 3 am. today i slept until about noon. hung out with lauren for awhile and then came home. i then hung out with dan for awhile and watched 30 Rock with him for awhile, well until he fell asleep, which he is still doing right next to me. lets see how this holiday season goes.

Jan3rd EDIT i had to take the songs by The Sidekicks and Angry Serfs off cause they came out in 2009. my bad.

ugh

i hate when i wait and have to update on over  a week of stuff.

i don't remember this thursday. oh well.

friday i worked at cvs. after work i got home and showered and got dressed and went to pennington NJ with Luther and greg for a show. the show, honestly, was not that good. but it was better then doing nothing i guess. ended up getting very drunk and inventing a weird accent with greg (that took me a day or two to shake). after the show i realized i left my phone at the house and basically got back to philly, went to laurens, slept a few hours then woke up very early to meet the kid who lived there and get it back, then drove straight back to philly and went back to bed. it was so early that lauren didnt even know i had left really. but doing that sorta put the rest of my day in a funk. i went home at some point and just sorta napped and sat around for most of the day. saturday night i know i went over to laurens and hung out there for a bit with her and danielle as they watched some harry potter movie. eventually danielle left and then mary and dan came home and we all watched The Fantastic Mr Fox, which was so good that i watched it a second time immediately after. then went to bed at laurens house.

sunday i went home in the morning. downbound city was recording in my basement again. i just sat around and ate and watched king of the hill for most of the day. then eventually got my shit together and went over to laurens and we went to the lanes for the Ergs!/Hunchback reunion show. it was pretty good. definitely not as good as the break up shows. less energetic and the sets were the same for the day and night show, even though i didnt go to the day show. the only really good parts about these shows was that i knew so many more people there then at the last shows, and that lauren was there with me. i also lost my shoe the third song in and then cut my foot. but other then that it was fun. got free beer thanks to mikey, and the ergs covered the clash and closed with 'pool pass'. after the show i drove us home and lauren slept for some of the ride home.

monday i had off from work again. it was a very unproductive day. woke up at laurens and rode home pretty early. and i'm pretty sure i never really left my couch all day. that night i went out and just rode around by myself and got food and then went home and watched Spies Like Us by myself and then went to bed.
tuesday i had off from work. i think i just sat around for most of the day and watched tv and movies. i honestly don't remember what i did for the most part this day. i probably just watched king of the hill and 30 rock. i think i also watched a movie.
wenesday i had truck. got to work at 6thirty. the truck itself didn't take long. but after it was done i stuck around to milk as many hours as i could out of it. i ended up staying 12 hours and not taking a break. after work i went home and fell asleep for a bit. then eventually went over to laurens and slept there.
thursday i rode home and got a call to come into work to close but i couldn't because of the show i booked that night. so i went in from 3 to 6. it was an east shift to say the least. after work i rode home, ate some food and then went over to the show. the show was good. good turnout, everyone who played was good. connor opened it, did a saves the day cover. then trunks and tales played and did a promise ring cover. then zack schwartz played and did a tigers jaw cover and a elliot smith cover. then redbeard played and basically only did highlites songs. then pj played and was really great. then steveo finished it off, did a verve pipe cover. lots of covers that night. after the show was pretty much wrapped up i got my shit and left. went home and finished watching Mallrats with dan and lauren. then went to bed.
friday morning i watched the Runaways. it was ok. during that i was called into work. got to work at 3 and closed, so i was there until midnight. it was a pretty boring night, and i got pretty bummed out about missing out on everything going on that night. after work i went home and tried watching a movie but fell asleep. woke up later and then rode over to laurens and slept there.
yesterday we all woke up and then danielle mary dan lauren and i drove up the punk rock flea market. got in for free wich was nice. it was very overwhelming. but it was good to see lots of people. ran into perry, sean g, gay, guy, deanna, zia, josh and some other people. got a descendents button, a vitamin x poster, a subhumanz poster, and a gbh t shirt. after that we drove home and basically just hung low at laurens house. its sweet that danielle lives there now. eventually lauren had to leave to go to work, so me and dan came home and made dinner and watched some king of the hill and then both fell asleep. eventually nick phil and greg came over and hung out for a bit. then everyone left so i went over to zacks house for the show. caught one song by monument, and then saw everyone everywhere, who were good as always. hung out for a bit after the show but eventually left and came home. downloaded a bunch of music and then road over in the rain to laurens and went to bed.
today we woke up feeling not so great and just kinda layed around and watched tv until i came home. now here i am watching tv and doing this and feeling sick.

Die Antwoord - Evil Boy

i don't watch

the show Madmen, but check this out....

Hold Tight! - Our Pets' Heads Are Falling Off

bunch of nothing lately

another huge update. last sunday i woke up and went to popeyes with arik and lauren. then me and arik went to his house then west philly to go to upenns hospital to see if we could find any medical tests for money. no dice. then we went to the bike church so i could get new handle bars, but it was closed. then we went to west philly arcade and played the T2 game for about an hour. then i went and got pictures developed and i went home for most of the night. not sure what i did at the end of the night.
monday i worked in the morning. after work i went home and cleaned up and showered and ate and whatnot. then i had a bunch of people over to drink and hang out including all roommates, danielle, vinny, greg, arik, zack, joe, tony, kiko, andy, jordan and there may of been some others but i can't remember really. dave fontaine came into the city too and hung out with everyone and me. we all got pretty drunk. eventually everyone left and me and dave went to melrose diner and got food then went back to my house and went to bed.
tuesday morning we went to el rey and got cheese hoagies and then went back to my house and watched Beer League, which was not that good. dave left after that and I didn't do much more after that. I watched some king of the hill and hung out with nick and phil and andy and amanda. lauren came over for a little bit and ate dinner at my house. i tried to go to bed early cause of my early shift on wenesday, but couldn't sleep. I ended up watching Planet Of The Apes.
wenesday i woke up at 4 and went to work. got out around 1 and went back to sleep for a few hours. after that i got up and did some laundry and hung out at my house for a little bit before i left philly to go home. got home around 8. dave fontaine came by for a little bit to get his charger. then i left and went to Rahway to pick up chris from the train station then we went to mikes and hung out. it was so good to see them. i haven't seen mike or caitlin or madeline in over a year. madeline was already asleep but i got to see a bunch of pictures and man has she grown. hung out there almost all night. went to sonic around 3 and waited in line forever but it was so worth it. after that we went back to mikes hung out some more and then i drove home around 5 am.
thursday was thanksgiving. i slept in pretty late. went driving around. didn't do much else. it was a very uneventful day. family came over. it was good seeing neices and nephews. ate what i could and fell asleep. woke up later and started watching tv. megan and dave came back with the kids and lauren came over and met them, which was nice. they left and i watched GrownUps with my mom, bridget and lauren. then after that i watched all of season two of Bored To Death, which was awesome. then i went to bed.

woke up friday morning still in jersey and  watched a few episodes of Eastbound And Down with lauren then left and went back to philly. i walked home from laurens and took a nap, watched some tv and ate dinner. then went over to the show i booked at Zacks house. pretty good show. everyone was super nice. everyone was on time. made about a hundred bucks. spraynard opened the show. then the touring bands played. both were very good. annabel played for a long time. everyone everywhere played last. played a short set. everything ran very well. stoked to be booking more shows at this house in the future. i stuck around and hung out for awhile then went home and met lauren at my house and went to sleep.
saturday i woke up hung out at my house for most of the day. ate pizza that day and played a bunch of pokemon stadium. it included nick andy phil and greg. arik and dan came over eventually. later on it ended up being a bunch of friends hanging out at the house playing video games. randomly my sister meghan was in town and came by after her dinner. lauren came over to and we all hung out for a bit.

after they left me lauren danny and greg walked over to steveo's for the 'opening' of his bar at his house. hung out, got really drunk and had a really good night. after awhile me and lauren walked home and went to bed. i bet we tried to watch a movie but we totally fell asleep.
sunday we woke up at my house. lauren went home and i hung out at home. we went out to dinner with her parents and aunt and uncle and grandparents at a fancy restaurant in center city. was sorta bummed i didn't go to the matt skiba/brendan kelly show at the note cause the show apparently ruled and everyone got to go back to bam margeras house afterwards and party. i went to laurens house and slept there that night.
