I WANNA GO TO A CLUB!
Alas, there are no good techno-gothy-industrial clubs around closer than Detroit. And I'm not driving for 2+ hours just to dance and get drunk. I have girlfriends (friends who are girls) who want to go out. Not only do they want to go out, they actually want to go out, with me to gothy/industrial type places. I have them convinced that it'll be fun, and now I can't find a place for us to go. GRR! I will not go to an all techno club, for I have no love of glowsticks, and I won't go to a punk club around here because I'll kill one of the little poser kids. And, in all honesty, a mosh pit isn't fun if you do it every saturday night. I want Thrill Kill Kult and Pigface and Joy Division and Ministry and KMFDM and Skinny Puppy and Beborn Beton and, gods forbid, maybe some Nine Inch Nails. Good, angry, darkity dark dark, whirl around and shake your tail music. And I want an excuse to wear a bodice in public, for the sole reason that my new birth control has made my boobs about a cup size bigger. I want to show off! And I want to goth up my friends and show them off! I want to be the Grand Dame for a night, and have my little harem in tow. Maybe I'll find some new members *evil grin*.
In other news (and this time I really do have other news), I bought the remastered version of THX 1138. That movie makes me happy. Although, some of the remastered bits don't quite sync with the orginal footage. Too high tech... it would be like replacing the cheeseball model-on-a-string exploding Death Star with a big ridiculous CGI sequence of explosions. But, and I have to give Lucas a little bit of credit here, the things he added were things that really got the point of the movie across... the contrast of the stark, cut and dry distopian world undergound with the wild and unpredictable world closer to the surface. Overall, I approve.
We also got The Punisher and Tombstone. LOVED The Punisher. Good, solid Blow Shit Up movie, with enough ridiculous humor to keep me from being bored with the violence. And what can you say about Tombstone? Its a classic. It has Eric wanting to play Deadlands, though. I'll never hear the end of that one.
The theater down the road is playing the old silent Blue Dahlia movie The Navigator. I would like to go see that sometime in the near future, I think.
This place is getting cooler the more I look around. Surprising things keep popping out from around corners. Throw a good club in the vicinity, and I don't think I'll ever leave.
