Big pimpin, B-L-O-G
Remember our Radiohead night where I played with a band that did OK Computer all the way through? Remember the drummer John, and how awesome he was and nice and stuff?

Well, he's playing for a very good cause this Thursday and you should go since I can't. Like so:

When: Thursday, July 29, doors at 7 p.m., music starts at 7:45

Where: The Baggot Inn, 82 West Third Street (between Sullivan and Thompson streets)

What: An Evening of Music to Benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. 5 talented local bands (all original music) will perform to raise money and awareness for blood and breast cancer research and patient treatment programs. Performer list (with expected stage times):

The Paul Cox / Adam Roberts Duo (745)
Michelle Vecchione & Vintage Blue (845)
Miguel Yannuzzi-- with JV drums (945)
Chester White & His Orchestra (1045)
Pat Mcgrath (1145)

Suggested donation of $10 at the door. 100% of door proceeds to be split evenly between the two charities.

Also, not for a good cause whatsoever, there's this, which I found whilst doing PI work on my new roomy, pictured below:

THRASHER TAKES ON MTV

GGRD's own Margaret Thrasher, winner of the first Roller Rumble street race, enjoyed yet another taste of the spotlight just two days after she took home the tiara. Thrasher fell prey to MTV's newest hidden camera series, Boiling Points — a show designed specifically to try the patience of its victims to the breaking point while the clock ticks. Thrasher, who was buying a slice of pizza, tangled with an "employee" of the pizzeria when she was overcharged, hassled, and generally disrespected. Had she just hung on a little longer, she might have gone home with $100 for her patience. But you know our Maggie — she's not about to take crap from anyone. According to rumor, once the cameras were turned off, Maggie went to work on the MTV actors with elbows flying. We didn't even try to reach MTV for comment on the matter.

So there's an upside to all of this depressing nonsense. I'm moving in with an American Bad-Ass.
