Thanks, Mer!
Thank you for making history. My feelings on tonight’s outcome are on Coilhouse. Read here: A Squeal of Joy in the Night. I’m all verklempt. And 2 bottles of champagne on top of vodka later, Courtney and I feel rather magical.
Vote. Please. Vote as early as you can – there will be lines, there will be snags, things may get strange. Don’t miss your chance to take a stand.
The rest of my photos from Saturday are here, and I’m expecting a few more from friends. Next year, I’d like to do this in Mexico. Or Spain. Click below to see more!
If you’re awake at midnight, LA time, I invite you to listen to SG Radio on Indie 103. I’ll be co-hosting and taking calls with Fractal and Missy from 12 to 2 am. No music from me this time, but I’m sure Missy will bring her finest! And if you’re not local, you can listen to us make asses of ourselves on the live stream, here. Better yet, call in!

The sex-spider below is the handiwork of friend and Coilhouse #2 designer, miss Courtney Riot. She’s been working on merchandising for Spinerette, Brody Dalle’s new band, and in the process has gotten me addicted to their forthcoming album. Fortunately for my addiction, Spinerette is playing a rare concert tonight at Spaceland. We will be there, making the trouble. Join us and the friendly people of Silverlake for a night of raspy goodness, won’t you?
Dye-day. I have to get my hands on this product [click]
A tree born crooked will never grow straight. Now – coffee.
This morning I had a shoot with one of my favorite photographers, Lou O’ Bedlam. We traveled to the wilds of Beverly Hills for a bit of nature and a lot of mosquitoes. What’s a little bloodshed in the name of art, right? Lou mostly shot medium format film but we did get a few Polaroids, see. Between this, Friday’s slumber party and the Jules Verne Festival at the Edison last night, it’s been a weekend well-spent. By the way, …
