Ask my brain how we’re already in July, swimming in the humidity as if we’re all trapped in a can of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, doggy-paddling for dear life.

Everyone digging it? No? Just me? [slurps soup out of hand]

Okay then.

My point is: never get old. Time passes like the meanest motherfucker on the block when you get old. Better to be young and bored and wondering what to do with all that time all but slappin’ you in the face, begging that you do something – anything! – more useful or fun than what you’re currently doing!

Anyway.

Please note that I will be away the week of July 15, but that’s TOP SECRET. My cat will be well-cared for.

Now that that important bit of business is out of the way, let’s get down to the weird music and weird movies I’ll be perusing in a live setting for the remainder of Armpit Season and into the (hopefully) glorious cold-weather months that will follow…
