There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh! That's actually not too far off from the sailor neighborhood he worked in as a teenager in San Diego. He worked at a pizza parlor, across the street from a tattoo parlor and squeezed in between a Mexican cinema and a Chinese restaurant.

According to someone on Tumblr, MCR did an interview on Radio One the other day wherein they said they were recording a new album. I have not been able to find any information about this (but I'll admit I haven't done obsessive searching). Has anyone else seen this rumor?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
They've "already started writing music" according to this. Which, I swear, they always are doing. It doesn't sound like 'we're recording' so much as 'we're musical dudes' to me. But I never say no to more music from them.

It's good for them to get started on the album they'll discard (since DD was the second time, doesn't anyone remember the Toro-bus studio?) so they can get on to making the next actual album.

Jilli, if you didn't know, there's a new Peter Murphy out, and the tracks I've heard have been excellent. Better than the Bauhaus reunion album IMO.

I did know! And posted the video to my Tumblr. Yeah, I think it's better than the Bauhaus reunion album, too.

Souls last night, Souls tonight. World/Inferno Friendship Society opened last night. The venue is the First Unitarian Church basement in Philadelphia. Looks like a rec room circa 1979 and holds a couple of hundred people. Hot and sweaty as sin down there. Not sure how Jack Terricloth survives in full suit, makeup intact but he do. I'm a little in love with him.
So fucking tired. Wasn't in bed until 4.
If a certain tineh father-of-twins/second-guitarist of another beloved band/inveterate Bouncing Souls fan shows up at this venue he'll have a fucking blast. He'd have lost his shit last night (the band sure did) when Lamar Vanoy was crowd surfing to Lamar Vanoy. His tour schedule and certain openers make that seem possible. He'd likely go completely un-noted and might even get to slip his leash and go for a dive himself. I'll be sweating and screaming with my left hand firmly over my right bicep if he does.
3 MOAR NITES TOO GOOOOOOO
