Lolla + Pitchfork 2010

So, most of the lineups are announced, and after my initial excitement over pitchfork getting Raekwon, LCD, and Modest Mouse, the rest of pitchfork has descended into shitty folk/indie hell whilst Lolla has once again managed to shit all over the pitchfork nerds recruiting Arcade Fire, Phoenix, MGMT, The XX, The Stars, and The Walkmen + a bunch of other sort of cool live acts + some truly fucking awful headliners. Chris Cornell is alive? GREEN DAY LOL. I'm having trouble trying to sleep. I'm counting sheep but running low. As times ticks by. Yeahhhhhh kill yourselves.

Crystal Castles at Lolla last year was the best show I've ever attended and while Lolla is full of the "wrong kind of white people" (jean shorts), the Pitchfork hipster crowd is equally disgusting in their skinny jeans + cardigans considering they're all 15 lbs overweight and there's significant muffin leakage. I really don't get the folk vibe these past two years.

It's kind of like Chicago's obsession with snobby hamburgers. In the past six months, an another dozen or so trendy burgher places have opened and yelpers and 4sqs of the world unite to fluff, finish, and gargle burger joints that are all but identical to either what you'd find at any random bar in the city, or on the grease-burgher side, In and Out. (But probably shittier because no animal style)

I actually ended up at one of the better chicago hamburger obsessions last night after failing to close this cutie because her madcow "friend" leap of faithed me when I just about to get her to do another round of soco and limes. Which is perhaps fine because I got to have ground up cow instead of spelunking a girl who, based on her dress and sluttiness towards me, was probably more Sarlacc than doorway to Narnia. Speaking of tentacle vagina toys:

Okay, so there's no way a little kid wants that shit. WHICH OF YOU SICKO VIRGINS IS BUYING STAR WARS VAGINA MONSTERS.

You know avros if we can find one cute girl who's down, I'm down. (as long as the greeking is mine)

Avros said...

Sure sounds fun, as long as our dicks don't touch. On a more serious note, I'll probably be down that way around that time.

Best Burger I've ever had was in Chicago actually. Place called Mr. J's Dogs. Dagwood Special was the burger and it was incredible. Do you know the place, Raddy?

Need to fly to the states just for that! Hope they are still in business.

I don't even know what the fuck you were trying to say in those last two paragraphs.

Except for the part with the sarlacc, that is.

Sadly it makes even less sense when I think it than when I write it
