The [Ninja Turtles] henchmen Bebop and Rocksteady have hijacked the musical genres for us just like the Lone Ranger hijacked the William Tell Overture for our parents.

pop renaissance said... i cannae do karaoke unless i am PISS drunk. seriously.
fulsome said... that could be arranged...
Chuckles said... I thought that was required for karaoke?
pop renaissance said... yeah, we were hoping to meet geenie cola at the gig.
we should be 100% indie and get drunk in the alley before we go in.
fulsome said... Yea, it's Saturday night...NO EXCUSES
This might actually be the time to rent a hotel room for passing out?
Chuckles said... Who's going to pass out on whom?
fulsome said... Hotwire is saying 2 person, 3 star room is $62. I am guessing it'd be the two couples that would want to crash? I am only a "sobering up" walk from my apt but, as PP can vouch, I don't know that it (un)comfortably sleeps 5.
teh l4m3 said... I cannot come. I would be a cobag -- if Prada made cobags.
Chuckles said... Karma Chameleon. I would love to get a duet of that featuring teh and fulsome.
Failing that, Afternoon Delight with Pinko and some little girl. Like his niece or something.
Unknown said... I don't know, he could totally pull off Gloria Gaynor's, I Will Survive. He could also sing with teh Girls Just Wanna Have Fun with the blue eye shadow and all.
I am so bummed I cannot go. Can you do it in March when I am in town?
Chuckles said... Are you going to be in DC or SF in March?
fulsome said... Wow, ok, Parklife might actually get me to step up to the microphone. Also consider Magic America. Fuck, I just realized that Blur may be my karaoke downfall.
Pulp?
Suede?
The Stone Roses?
This is going to be painful
pop renaissance said... pulp: i could do a song or two.
suede: i would rock suede. we used to cover "animal nitrate".
stone roses: i can sing 'em better than ian. mainly cos ian cannae sing.
i've never done an indie band in karaoke other than oasis. usually it's neil diamond or some 70s pop song.
i may have to see about getting the band out to party for this one.
Chuckles said... My debut as a karaoke star was Can't Stand Losing You by The Police.
Who then arrested me and charged me with murdering their song.
Unknown said... I'll be in SF in March. I can go to DC anytime. I used to go every month when I had clients in Bethesda. Speaking of which, I need to find some specialists in the Georgetown area so I can get some more trips in to DC. I love staying at the Hilton and taking the shuttles in and out of Regan National.
pop renaissance said... SWEET! AG IN THA HOUSE IN 2 MONTHS!!!
oh girl. you have GOTTA hook up with me and the old lady...
Unknown said... Pop, I might be up for it if you call your darling wife something more than 'the old lady'. And I want a hug when I see you and def, DEFINITE on you giving UC a big 'ole bear hug.
I have to wait and see what my friends say because I am going to see their new baby and I'm not sure what the 411 is yet.
Can we get a name for her your wife like Ms. Pop Star or something?
Chuckles said... I think he should go with Clarissa Deadly. I just think some random chick name with Deadly for a last name makes for a great comic book heroine last name.
AG: the airport is called National airport because we don't kowtow to BUSH 1's stupid name for it. If you get a client like Association of American Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine in Friendship Heights, MD that would be super rad. Or whatever. I know all the best places in DC for a quick alcohol fueled jaunt. I even know some synagogues.
Unknown said... It would most likely be Georgetown Medical or Walter Reed. Perhaps some NIH work. Either way, I will have a car and can easily get around. Don't worry, I will look you up the next time I am in DC.
