Los Angeles and the Violent Femmes
ChanPai:
Hola angelenos y angelenas! Como estan?
When you live in L.A., you accidentally pick up Spanish. It just happens.
So does anyone here like the Violent Femmes? Anyone here an L.A. local or close to it? The Femmes are playing at Amoeba in Hollywood (truly one of the best things to come from up north) and I think it would be cool if there were a crapload of people there. Not that there already won't be.
Just a heads up!
The Femmes are sort indie-esuqe...
happybirthdaygelatin:
I really dig the Violent Femmes. Not so much a fan of El A but that may be more of a bad experience association.
Kanno:
The Femmes were probably the first indie-ish band I was ever into. I would have to agree that they are excellent.

I liked them a lot in high school. Then I sort of grew out of it. I saw them with the Pixies a few months ago and I was sort of underimpressed.
On a mostly unrelated note, someone in my high school nearly got expelled for playing "Blister in the Sun" at a school talent show. Apparently songs about masturbation and getting "high as a kite" violate school policy or something.
Apparently, also, school policy violates First Ammendment Rights. Fuck, I hated my high school.
sp2:
I dunno. My school were a bunch of fucking nazis. I got kicked out for being a "high risk" for becoming a school shooter when they found out through the grapevine that I'm bipolar and was angry that they had knowingly looked the other way from a lot of serious violence experienced by myself and my friends. I could probably sue the fuckers, but it's not worth the legal battle.
They probably just had a problem with "high as a kite." But then, the class song that year was "A Little Help From My Friends" so fuck that hypothesis.
The Nazi hypothesis stands.
