i'm to tired to think of good ones right now

countdown: 6 hours

gogol bordello is the best argument for globalization that i have ever seen. cost of admission: $8. a gin and tonic and 2 beers (incl. tip): $13. minutes of my life stolen forever by the opening band: 45. eugene hutz crowd surfing on top of a huge drum and echo park hipsters dancing like maniacs in a polka mosh pit: priceless. pictures tonight.

Iraq rejects Bush's 48-hour ultimatum as war preparations gather pace

"This proposition was made by an inept individual. We will go one better by calling for Bush to leave power with his family," Saddam's elder son Uday said Tuesday of the ultimatum.

missed most of the sharp ease show tonight due to st. paddy's day festivities. erin go, bra! i used to date a girl named erin. the bassist for the last band to play tonight had one of those chinstrap beards. his band honked. i left.

no asian 'abnormal pnemonia' symptoms yet. lets see how long i can hold out against the new plague (I've read the hot zone i know how these things work).

gogol bordello tomorrow night. once agan, LA folks, do not miss them. at the echo.

so sleep now, children, and dream of now, for you will dream of it again long after it is gone.

i'm linking this again. if you didn't check this out the first time, do it. beautiful and powerful writing by someone on the ground in iraq right now, a real-time norman mailer or hemingway for the new war. maybe that's going a bit to far. but it's worth your time. i promise.
you know when you don't quite get enough sleep one night, then the next day you're having breakfast or whatever and you aren't really that hungry, and you walk around the majority of the day short of breath like you've been kicked in the stomach? rock and roll hangover or bizzare asian super-flu? we report, you decide.
