What comrades are talking about right now:
If you don’t have a ticket to Lollapalooza this weekend and thus have been crying into your pillow because you will miss seeing the Polyphonic Spree perform in their new military uniforms, don’t despair. They will be performing a special show at midnight at the Hard Rock Hotel on Friday night and 312unes has graciously given us a set of VIP tickets to give away. The show will be part of a kickass after-party that starts at 10:00pm and includes DJ Momjeans (Danny Masterson from That 70’s Show), Perez Hilton the gossip dude, a plethora of free food and drink and, most importantly, a dancing and jubilant Joie.
I have no idea how to give these away, so how about this…he or she who pleads most convincingly wins. convincingly and humorously, i should say. you can either email me at joie@superstarcastic.com or comment here. and expect to have your plea posted on superstarcastic, of course. Now enough aimlessly chatting…get pleadin’!
So, I have always found small insular groups of artists and the people who follow them to be quite entertaining. In general, since they didn’t participate in the group grope of sports or popularity in childhood, they have this extended second adolescence, where they are just as exclusive and mean as the people and the societal norms they claim to rail against.
I could go on about this for hours, but I am not here to insult you, dear reader - I save that for my ‘witty’ comments.
I am here, however, to present for you an opportunity to shine amongst your elitist peers. Woot has a wicked ‘guess the next song’ game in their weekly podcast. I am fascinated if any of the countless hours SSC readers have spent tombed away becoming pasty white could possibly pay off and generate us an answer to this contest. If we could win this thing regularly, we could really stick it to all those people who didn’t ask us to prom.
