The Dark Knight
Movie: Action
Comment by: Nikelle Nikelle
OK FINALLY I will join the comment train on the Dark Knight...my brother loved this movie so much he is mailing me $10 to go see it here in Seattle (a matinee of course you cheap bastard!) Just kidding- but my bro said the Joker really reminded him of me, which is kind of freaking me out because isn't he some dark possessed crazy killer? Guess I'll just have to see it for myself. And then go mastermind a plot to destroy a large metropolitan city.

Takashi Nakazato IS modern Japanese pottery
His family has had a huge impact on the contemporary pottery arts scene in Japan. I am very excited to meet the Master!

Flobots YES YES YES! Lead the nation with a microphone
Classical instruments and rap? With 'damn the man' lyrics and the tone of- if you're not outraged, you're not paying attention?
The CD player in my car is FUBARed, so I was listening to the radio last night around 3:30AM and 'Handlebars' came on- I was entranced, in love, after sitting in the car to finish up the song I ran in and looked up these guys on Myspace. Oh yeah.

She might be able to run the state of Washington
But the really important question is...
CAN SHE DANCE?
Melissa Etheridge
Comment by: Nikelle Nikelle
Melissa Etheridge is the only one
Get tickets now for her tour; the Paramount in Seattle will be packed and I will be there ready to grab up posters, CDs, and to take a lot of pictures of the chanteuse who so eloquently sings the lyrics of "Like the Way I Do" ad "I'm the Only One,"- you know Melissa Etheridge makes you want to cry, in a good way.

A Chorus Line National Tour: Broadway does Broadway!
You might not know all the lyrics to A Chorus Line, or own the DVD or sheet music or tee shirt, but this Broadway musical is one of the most enjoyable performances I have ever seen! The costumes in particular are fabulous; just check out the pictures from A Chorus Line's website or better yet; buy tickets to the upcoming National Tour!
The High Kings

The High Kings
Who doesn't love Irish ballads? They make you feel as if you were climbing through the verdant hills of the Emerald Isle, past stone walls centuries old, past meandering sheep with a song in your heart and a rainbow in your eye. Okay maybe that is just me; find out for yourself on their upcoming tour. Got tickets?

Billy Idol
Comment by: Nikelle Nikelle
White Wedding with Billy Idol
I have the shirt, the poster, the album, the pictures, the downloaded lyrics and the print-out discography, the DVD of greatest hits; I have perfected my Rebel Yell and now can finally see this 80's bad boy Billy Idol in person! Only he can make a white wedding sound so, so dirty and naughty. Where has Billy Idol been hiding for twenty years? I don't know and don't care; I will be at the Paramount Theater in Seattle to see him snarl and hear him yell!

USC 11!
I have been getting flyers on my car for USC 11 for about three months now, they are promoting the heck out of it, and for those ticket prices they kind of have to. I will say that HYPERFUNK is the bomb.com and throws THE BEST booze cruises, uh, I mean boat parties EVER, so good in fact that I heard after the last one there might be no more as the Captain got a little disgruntled at all the crazy dancing going on. Don't look at me.
