Wednesday, January 30, 2002 +R O T T E N+ John Lydon and how he cured my short attention span. p.s. Johnny {Rotten} Lydon’s birthday is tomorrow. He will be 45 years old. +Goodness+ Real good webzine.  +What five bands would you like to see at Ozzfest 2002?+ With the exception of Ozzy and Black Sabbath, Marilyn Manson and maybe … ummm Slipknot, last year’s Ozzfest was pretty much a yawner. The other bands like Papa Roach, Disturbed, and Linken Park were unable to motivate the crowd and their hardcore tactics came across as whiney. The Ozzfest Administrator {whoever that could be} is asking: “If you have thoughts on how the festival could be improved or if you want to submit your five bands who should appear on Ozzfest 2002 send them to me at OZZMINISTRATOR@aol.com. Please keep it brief and be patient if you desire a reply–it takes time to answer everybody individually. Well I’ll play that game… Punkarella’s 5 Choices for Ozzfest 2002 for Main Stage and Second Stage… Main Stage 1. Ozzy without Black Sabbath – Only cause I like a lot of Ozzy’s solo songs and he doesn’t play those when Sabbath is there. Remember when he played “Mama, I’m Coming Home” for his wife, Sharon, at the Atlanta 2000 Ozzfest on the night of their anniversary? Well I do and it was damn sweet. 2. Nashville Pussy – There is NO other group out there that puts on a better Live show. Period. oh… Ruyter Suys. Period. 3. Marilyn Manson – He’s controversial. He’s spontaneous. His shows are awesome. (he was great last year…bring him back) 4. Impotent Sea Snakes – Black tape X’s on nipples, bondage, and loud loud music. 5. Butthole Surfers – Shotguns, flaming drums, and crazed frontman – Gibby Haynes. Pyschadelic Rockmasters. Just one song: “Moving to Flordia”. And instead of that guy who drives the nails thru his nose… Second Stage 1. Iggy Pop – He wouldn’t want to play on the main stage. Its not his style. He likes to get dirty and sweaty with the crowd. 2. Icarus Line – New…exciting…and raw. Think Sex Pistols. 3. Slaves on Dope – Incredible frontman. And cause no other band could do a Poison cover song and make it sound good. Plus their version of “War Pigs” is my favorite. 4. Methods of Mayhem – They would come across a lot better on second stage than main stage. I’ve seen them play in a small venue and at Ozzfest. The small venue performance was amazing but they sucked last year at Ozzfest. Tommy Lee deserves to be there regardless … but let it be second stage so he can work the crowd. 5. My Ruin – The female lead singer has a voice that would kick 99% of the men she went up against. +punkarella fantasizes about playing Ozzfest + Viva La Punkarella Vulva Inside bind to pave (chorus:) Chaos of vulva envying bloody (chorus:) Blood of Gehenna open the vulva (chorus:) Force of punkarella la the punkarella (chorus:) And now you too can be a headbanger with the help of MetalMaker.  +Live music in Atlanta+ Saw Lennon, Supafuzz, and Speedealer at the Cotton Club. The crowd was small and the music was pretty good. {BMF reviews} But I’d have to say the highlight was seeing Nashville Pussy’s name on the guest list and then actually seeing Ruyter Suys and Blaine Cartwright just blending in with the crowd. We are heading to Colorado in a couple weeks to document our experiences while following Nashville Pussy around for five of their tour dates with the Reverend Horton Heat. The fact they are playing in places like Aspen, Vail, and Steamboat Springs didn’t influence us at all of course. So naturally seeing them at the Cotton Club doing the same thing we were doing was a bonus. Just your everyday nice husband and wife that both happen to play guitar in one of the most kickass bands you will ever see. Blonde overheard in the parking lot : “Does anyone know where the groupie area is?” +Bashing, Inc.+ Only cause I started feeling sorry for Britney Spears do I now turn my attention to …Creed. :)~  +Ready… Set… Download+ Johnathan Davis of Korn has composed five songs for the upcoming Wayne Static of Static-X – “Not Meant For Me” more…”Queen of the Damned” +HAHAHAHAHAHA…whatevah+ Is Creed the next Led Zepplin? Creed is knocked out of first place by Alan Jackson. Enough said.  +She just likes to get her fuck on..+ Hey Mister by Custom. Who is this guy? A BMF or not? hmmmm…he likes cars and lofts…good…good… “Custom is a difficult person to summarize in “25 words or less.” He�s an unusual dichotomy � at first glance, he�s a low-key, twenty-something, 6-foot-8 skater replete with the pants hanging at half mast. Yet on closer inspection, especially when delving into the lyrics of his record “Fast,” one finds a complex, crazy, multitalented artist. Custom finds much of his inspiration in the streets, clubs, people and general chaos of New York city. He lives in an industrial loft in lower Manhattan sandwiched between fish markets and sweat-shops. The loft, dubbed 120, is a Factory-like haven for a tight-knit collective of friends including artists of all kinds, musicians, writers, photographers, general wastoids and models. 120 is a hub of activity around the clock, especially in the studio which Custom built himself. If Custom has to leave the house he does so on one of his three favored means of transport: a long board, a KTM or a Cop Car. The cop car, known as Liberty, or Libby for short, is a retired NYPD Caprice – still with search light, antennaes and aircooled wheels. In that it is a cop car, it gets full cop treatment: you can run lights, do burnouts, drifts, as if in pursuit, and park anywhere without getting ticketed. The KTM is a 640cc Austrian motorcross bike on which Custom pretends that New York City is just one big motorcross track. This often leads to real pursuits with real cop cars, although he has yet to be caught. Custom�s very wry and quirky sense of humor, along with his uncanny ability to weave words together in unexpected ways leads one on an adventure down the rabbit hole when listening to his debut album “Fast.” His album which was written, produced and primarily performed by Custom, will be released in early 2002. +Opinions are like assholes…carry on…+ +Stop…Look…Listen+ A to Z Lyrics Everyone should read Delta of Venus, Catcher In The Rye, and the Perks of Being a Wallflower. Everyone one should see Pulp Fiction, A Clockwork Orange, and Requiem for a Dream and everyone should own at least one Billie Holiday and one Ramones album. Fred Durst. Pied. January 22 Kittie. Download the Pink Floyd Cover .. “Run Like Hell”. Ozzie and Harriet, meet Satan. coming to Atlanta…Kid Rock +Ready… Set… Download+ Dwayne Johnson is The Scorpion King. The Scorpion King Soundtrack will include: Godsmack’s “I Stand Alone” will be released February 5th with the album due in stores on March 26th. Look for the Rock to appear in the new video. Yum. {via PRP} +He had a leather jacket, long hair, a dangling cigarette … he was 14+ I was looking at the 2002 Grammy Nominees when I recognized a name on the list. Brendan O’ Brien, who I grew up with in Atlanta, is one of the Record of The Year nominees for producing Train’s record, “Drops of Jupitar”. Congratulations Brendan…I always knew you were talented even if my mother thought you were a punk. :)~ 133 Reasons why she was wrong. +Coming to Atlanta+ January 27 – Lennon and Speedealer … Viva La Vulva Baby – Cotton Club. February 25 – Soulfly – Roxy. April 24 – Rob Zombie’s Demon Speeding Tour – Tabernacle…”Never Gonna Stop” video in Media Player or Real Player. Crossing my fingers: Clutch .
