I was in Oakland seeing Hot Chip at the Fox, that’s all I know. But I never lie at 1:16 in the morning.

Hot Chip is playing tonight and it’s not even sold out!

I'm really excited for Hot Chip later. Gonna do the Hot Chip dance all night!

I knew the Mission was getting a little homogeneous but this is ridiculous

An amazing roll, but not quite amazing enough to win me anything

straight

I almost fell off my stool, but according to this internet site, you’ll roll this “about 1.5 times every 100 rolls.”

So, like, no big deal I guess.

What are we doing for Halloween???

Honestly I think we’re just gonna stay in on the 31st. The 30th is where the party’s at. The way I see it there are three options, all involving punk and/or disco…

There’s the punk option:

 Teenage Dance Craze welcomes Halloween with a super spectacular celebration of wild teenage rock & roll and crazy mixed up tricks & treats featuring THE BEAT OFFS as THE B 52s + SLICK as TOMMY JAMES & THE SHONDELLS + DIRTY DENIM as THE DEAD GIRLS + POW! as X RAY SPEX & THE TDC DJs RUSSELL QUAN, OKIE ORAN & dX THE FUNKY GRANPAW spinning insanely delicious rock & roll racket on vinyl in between sets and after the show dance party!

There’s the disco option:

DJs Jamie Jams and Emdee return with a spooky Halloween cover set of all Daft Punk! And in the back room, a classic early 2000′s set by Rocky as Mira Aroyo of Ladytron! Plus fog, lasers and a screening of electroclash cult classic, Liquid Sky. *FREE in 2000′s themed costume all night.

And finally there’s the punk vs. disco option:

Biographical Info:

"I joked that living in the Mission would be the end of me. And there were nights where it felt like the case.

One night I went out with my friend Allan to the bar that no one goes to on 16th Street, where I lost half my drink and money on the dance floor. Later we skated down 16th to Evelyn Lee, where I fell off my board and landed on my head as the 22 bus sped past behind me. A sobering moment. At the bar, I sulked and nursed my wounds until Allan put on Amy Winehouse’s 'Valerie.' We danced, he dipped me, and I felt better."
