NoFX-mex

went out for a night on the "town" last night. soren was in town, so everybody was in a pretty festive mood. started the night at the new brewery. that was fine. went to the forest. hung out with props.

heard this exchange on state street between garrett (smoking a jay) and an indian chick. it is for real:

indian "i am sober these days. i don't do that shit."
props "oh yeah? how long?"
indian "i've been off crank for two days."
props "i've been up for two days"
props "do you want a hit?"
indian "i only smoke weed laced with crank....speed weed."

then i went to the bathroom...as i worked my way across the bar, i heard scarb yell out "hey! hot chicks! let's get drunk and naked!" i enter the bathroom, and observe two mexicans snorting crank off the toilet.

later, a welcome relief to my intensly shitty night, i ran into kristian alto, monica and julie. we went back to julie's house with these mexicans we work with. they are pretty fresh. they showed me their ticket stubs from nofx/ramones at the hard rock cafe in culican and we may take them to see aging orange/teen idols/loose change show at the 'drie in sf .

[as an aside: kristian and i took jaycon to see the show, which ended up being the last show at the crocodrie ever. r.i.p. we saw exactly two songs of loose change's set, but jaycon was pretty baffled by the city]

it was pretty interesting talking to those guys. although by american standards their taste in punk is pretty fucking generic, those guys are pretty out there for mexicans. all them have their own bands back an mexico, and claim to play in front of 300+ crowds regularly.
