Music
South DaCola music club w/ Jesse Malin and D Generation
l3wis 
Jesse Malin’s first band D Generation’s second album NO LUNCH is a great example of the rebirth of Garage Glam Rock originally started by bands like The New York Dolls and The Dead Boys. The album is very good, but a little head of it’s time. D.G. was popular in their homeland of Canada but the movement didn’t catch on until later in the United States with bands like JET and The Hives.
Malin’s first solo album, produced by famed singer/songwriter Ryan Adams, The Fine Art of Self Destruction, grows on you after awhile. It is kind of a weird mix of
D Generation and Whiskeytown. You either hate it or love it. If you are used to Malin’s voice on NO LUNCH it is a little harder to get used to on a much folkier album like FASD.
Malin’s lyrics remind me a bit like Social Distortion but smarter. You can also tell he is heavily influenced by The Clash.

Pastor DooHickey seems to think I’m doing cartoons about him? Don’t flatter yourself.

The Resemblance is Striking
Local cartoonist Scott Ehrisman decided to feature me again today in a post titled Pastor Denial. At one point a few months ago some were suggesting he was infatuated with me – that kept him quiet for a couple months. I’m definately an enigma to him and his cartoon here reveals his confusion.
But it gets better, Mr. wipe his butt with the 1st and 14th Amendment calls himself a constitutionalist; I split my side reading that.
Ehrisman is all over the map on this one – I’m one who holds the Constitution in the highest regard – he’s the h8r, not me. But, whatever.Â
I also enjoyed this comment, now he needs to judge people on the music they listen to and the band shirts they wear.
What do we expect from one whose favorite band has an CD called incesticide and he’s proud to have a t-shirt of the CD cover.
Steve, I’m no Kurt Cobain scholar, but I am assuming the word incesticide, something I’m sure Kurt made up, is a ANTI-INCEST statement. Just a wild guess. But I forgot, your type thinks it is okay for young girls to be subjected to having their sick rapist relative’s babies. Because hey, nothing like being forced to have the child of your uncle who raped you, because it is morrally the right thing to do.
I also enjoyed the comments of his Jim Jones like followers about me, very Christian like.
“ehrisman is just a bitter, lousy artist with nothing better to do.”
“I googled his name and NOTHING popped up, notta, zippo, zero. The guys an idiot, he’s got the talking points down, and he probably didn’t come up with that on his own either. Not to mention he’s got your hair parted down the wrong side and he calls himself an artist.”
“South DaCola is proof that the computer labs at middle schools are open extended hours.”
The collar and image is merely a form of symbolism, sorry you can’t see it, and sorry the pastor sybolism I used just happened to look like every other wacko-wannabe evangelist in this country.
Shouldn’t you be setting up shop in some small African country?
