I'm transitioning to tumblr. It's way easier to post there.

Follow me at Beerspit Night

(I'm talking to you, KD)

You should bow for your award winning performance

 
The worst thing someone can do
isn't fucking you over outright.

But when they show all their ugly,
they harden you in a way
that no explanation can mend.

It is over
before it began.

And that,
surely,
is a small tragedy.

I got something I shouldn't have

This album of hers kicks a lot of bed time ass.

Happy/Hollow

So far my Halloween costumes have ranged from 1/3 of Spinal Tap to Mortal Kombat to Pirate Vamp.
And now that it's actually Halloween, I'll see what else I come up with. Eat candy before it eats you.

On a mountain range I'm Dr. Strange

Dammit Zara. Now I need long sequin skirts.

Love Lost

I likey.

Ombre Vibes

Ok so I know the ombre hair trend has been going in and out for years at this point but I've been debating just the bleach part of it all the while. And although it's more often seen botched than pulled off, Kate Bos looks super cute in this editorial.

Rather Ripped

Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon split after 27 years of marriage and I realize there's no hope for any of us.
You guys aren't gonna find anyone who looks cuter by your side.

Cocaine White

It's Only Teenage Wasteland

Some pictures from this week:
Our Kung Fu Necktie show - photo by David from The Dead Exs.
Found a bathroom homage to my late, great homie Ryan in Philly.
Currently in custody of the cutest pup you'll ever spy.
Iggy kept Zac's neck warm while we drove Luke and Melissa to the airpirt.
Gettin weird at Johnny Mac's after the Phils' loss.
Marlee is owning my days.

My Demons: How They Wander.

I've had my illegal copy of The Bailey Hounds CD on repeat for the last week. Can't wait to play with those fellas at their record release on November 26th at Kung Fu Necktie. The sound is superb there. Jude made us fake bacon grilled cheese with avocado and tomato for dinner.  Iggy and I are drifting safely to sleep in a food coma.

Ruby Lyrics

Lately some folks have been asking me about the lyrics to our songs. Figure I'd type some out since I can't sleep. They're pretty simple. I don't like to over-complicate or write my lyrics in an unnatural language I don't speak. If you don't see one here that you're curious about just ask. You know, if anyone reads this thing.
*Please note: some lyrics are subject to drunken changes.

Can't Get Him Away
By the light of day
Oh he's walkin' on
Down the beaten path
I found him on
But I saw his wounds
Yeah I licked his face
Then the sky it changed
From red to grey

Now I can't get him away
Now I can't get him away

Any other day
I'd be walkin' on
You're the hungry rat
That I feed upon
But I saw your wounds
Yeah I licked your face
Then the sky it changed
From red to grey

Now I can't get you away
Now I can't get you away

I got a quarter won't you wait there by the telephone
They're gonna grow up
You know I will be dead and gone

Soon as you left me you know I put my red dress on
They're all gonna grow up
You know I will be dead and gone

The Lean
Well I can see your dark side
Shining through
I walked the long way home
In your broken shoes
Aw your soul needs savin'
Like the sky need blue

Oh Lord, why are you so cruel to me?
You made me sit down, sit down
In the devil's seat
If I pray like my momma do
Well, tell me, tell me,
Can I get closer to you?

So now you see my dark side
Shining through
Aw my soul needs savin'
Like the sky need blue

The One You Love
The tide gets deep
Lost in elbow grease
And when push comes to shove
Can't find the one you love

The red from the sky
Match the red in your eye
And you push your hand in the glove
To know the one you love
To know the one you love

You can't sleep when your momma weeps
For a savior up above
To find the one she loves
To find the one she loves

You'll be at peace when you're six feet deep
In a kingdom made of mud
You'll know the one you love
You'll know the one you love

I thank God you're not around
I thank God you left this town
Ain't gonna be your other glove
Ain't gonna be the one you shove
You're not the one I love
No you're not the one I love

River Soot
We found him out
We knocked him down
Dirty in the river soot
He took you out and dragged you 'round
Just for the way you looked

Your family
Will they ever be the same?
Can you get the dirt off your name?

We found him out
We shot him down
Pushed him in the river soot
He took you out and held you down
Just for the way you looked

Your family
Will they ever be the same?
Can you get the dirt off your name?

The bodies now
They're lyin' down
Resting in the river soot
But some will stir the mud around
And we bait the hook

Your family
They will never be the same
We can't get the dirt off our name

Good God Damn
Keep me in your pocket
I'll keep you safe and warm
And if you hold me tight
I'll brave you through the shit and the storm

I'll be your right hand man
I'll be your good God damn

Love me like a battle
And when the blood shed is done
Let the bridges you burn light your way
Let 'em be your sun

I'll be your right hand man
I'll be your good God damn.

Wear me like a locket
And never let me go
And when the sky crashes down
I'll be the only one you know

I'll be your right hand man
I'll be your good God damn.

Taking Sides
When he comes in the night baby
I hope you already know
That if you let him inside, maybe
He'll steal a piece of your soul
Well I heard him cry just a little, now I see him
I see him rolling his eyes
You said you'd stay in the middle
But now you're, now you're taking sides

Hey, hey
Aw, Aw

So when it's cold and it's dark baby
I hope you already know
I'd rather wake up an old lady
Than share a piece of my sould
Well I heard him cry just a little, now I see him
I see him rolling his eyes
I said I'd stay in the middle
But now I'm, now I'm taking sides

Hey, hey
Aw, Aw

When the dark takes hold
Rest your soul

Strange Hold
We're draggin' him out now but he ain't alive
Said I, I knew this town would be the death of his pride
But don't hold me down
I got somethin' to say
Well don't look back not a single day
Hey!

Ooh oooh
Well I always knew
That this town had a strange hold...

We're draggin' him out now but he ain't alive
Said I, I knew a time when he was dignified
But don't push me down
I got somethin' to say
You're no man and I ain't your pretty baby
Hey!

Ooh ooh
Well I always knew
That this town had a strange
Strange hold on you

And he's walkin' by
And they blacked his eye
Got a bloody nose drippin' to his toes
And we said, "Hey Jack,
Why you lookin' back?
See we always knew that this town
Had a strange
Strange
Strange
Strange hold on you."

Get some clarity on oceanside

I've gotten two Hope Sandoval look-alike comments this week. One talked me into buying a leather jacket.

"Tall, handsome, big privates, funny, talented, successful, stylish, healthy (non smoker/drug addict), gentleman, loves his mom and sister, nice car, pays for stuff, buys presents, is attentive, yet not a pussy, epic in bed = formula for marriage material. and i don't even believe in marriage."

All Tomorrow's Parties

We're playing at Porta in Asbury Park tonight in support of the ATP music festival.
Come out and drink beers. Music starts at 6. Ruby at 8.

I can't talk to you

Ruby shots from the last few days. That tambourine is gonna give me permanent bruises. Oh well, oh well.
Tomorrow we play The Rathaus in Philly with Scott Liss solo and Cold Fronts.
Music video filmage. All ages. Message me for directions.
