Sumi Ink Club

Before I left Los Angeles, I had dinner with Rob, Luke, and Sarah. Sarah and Luke are the force behind Lucky Dragons and Sumi Ink Club and for a couple of years have been creating shirts for Blood is the New Black. We played Houston last night and then stayed at my aunt's house. Ast time I was there Dean slept in my grandfather's old room, next to my senior picture. The next day I wore my new shirt from Sarah and Luke and decided to take a picture of myself in my aunt's bathroom.

Back on the Road

Today kicks off another tour with No Age. Found this picture on Dean's iPad of the Europe tour. I looked so long in the practice space for this pillow because I wanted to take it with us, sadly it was nowhere to be found. :(

Los Angeles, 3 More days til Tour

Last night I spent the night with Alison O'Daniel who used to live with me in Austin 4.5 years ago. She showed me her thesis film Night Sky made while at University of California Irvine. The film features hearing and non-hearing actors as well as some wicked audio effects and visuals. Alison also made the point than whenever you see women in sublime landscapes they are always in trouble, and her film has two women who are lost in the desert, but just deal with it. Since she said this, I have been furiously re-categorizing films I have seen into this category; Thelma and Louise and Picnic at Hanging Rock are the first two that come to mind.

Currently watching The Wrestler while my stepsister Nomi reads All the Devils Are Here next to me in preparation for her interview with the authors on Saturday. Tomorrow we are going to do yoga and get pedicures.

New Year 2011

New Year's Day also happens to be the birthday of Stephanie Chan my former bandmate and all around total genius. On New Year's Eve, her band Dunes played a wicked show with fellow No Age tourmates Abe Vigoda Her birthday went on all weekend in the company of Mark, Steph's sister Wendy, her fiancee Mark, and the Hall sisters at the house on Lexington.

Also today marked the first day of OWN, Oprah Winfrey's Network that my friends, Pastor and Genn, have been working on. After standing nearby Oprah, Steadman, Fergie, and other Oprah talent at the opening party, I drank two bloody mary's and took some candy for Steph's birthday party.
