Lots of fun stuff this weekend, without even being related to Cinco de mayo.
I had fun. I went to see an matinee showing of Iron Man on friday, then off to the downtown art walk in San Jose, mainly just staying at Anno-dommini gallery that night. There were a lot of great artist selling their stuff in the parking lot area and the show itself inside was great too.
Too bad neither of the Artist have DA accounts,Stephan Doitschinoff and Daniel Jesse Lewis. They were both great. Here is Anno-Domminis website

After the art walk, I went to a show at the Gingerbread House, aka Todds house, in S.J. it was a fun party atmosphere as always. Some great bands played, mostly experimental bands, Will from The Cliftons new band, Schande (from San Francisco), played, along with The Unit Breed from Portland, formely of San Jose, fronted by the incredible artist, Joe Demaree
[link] and the great technical Funk rock band from San Francisco known as Battle Hooch headlined.
That was Friday. Saturday was.. duh, duhduh, duuhhh,, "Free Comic Book DaY!!!", on which I spent at least $60 bucks on not so free comics in the process of making my rounds to some of the areas local shops. I would have to say that the highlight of the free comics were, Transformers Animated, The X-Men issue featuring Pixie (rowr..) and Superman. The "Bongo" Simpsons free comic was great too. I went to four shops locally, Lees comics on Rengstorff rd. in Mountain View, R and K comix in Santa Clara on the El Camino Real, Comics Conspiracy on Saratoga-sunnyvale rd. (across from the High School) in Cupertino, and Space Cat on Bascom ave. in San Jose. There were a few more I wanted to hit up, but I was running low on funds, so I only made it to those four. I also hit up Time Tunnel toy collectible shop too (next to Space cat).
Here are some great fan work of these series:



After my F.C.B.D. adventure, i went home for a while and started reading, and reading.. then... It was time for that nights main event, BEERIJUANA, one of the best metal bands in San JOse, featuring members of Ragweed and San Resina, they played at a house party along with a new band with former Stiff Richards member, ED, on guitar. That was a really fun show. Beerijuana are just incredible. Look them up on myspace. ASfter that show, it was late, but I went home and read some more until around 3 or 4 a.m.
Sunday, I played Sloshball (Softball, played like when we were kids, with picked teams and just general fun). The game was cut short when on of the players went to slide into second and while doing so, landed on his hand and broke it. I ended up driving him to emergency to get patched up. After that mess, I went shopping, was supposed to go to my friend house for the sharks game, but was so drained, I just stayed home instead and listened to it online (since I have no Cable and antenna reception sucks here). The Sharks lost 2-1, in the longest game in their history, 4 overtimes, making the game that is normally about 2 hours long, five hours and eighteen minutes long. After that I crashed and woke up for work. The end,.
here are some other related deviations:
Billy Bob, aka, Will, whose new band, Schande, was at the Friday show, Miss Oblivious of Payne Creations is from San Jose, now Seattle Based:

As for Cinco de Mayo, it wasn't as crazy as last year where it took an hour to go down two blocks with all the cruisers even on the side streets, but it was still pretty packed on the Santa Clara street, with lots of partiers, cruisers and cops all weekend long.
hmm.. bacon?

When people tell me "plz" just because it's shorter than "please", I feel perfectly justified to answer "no" because it's shorter than "yes".
