Ahhh…It’s Saturday and I’m spending my day in Santa Cruz, California. Perhaps the greatest place in the whole wide world. Beautiful mountains, the ocean, good veggie restaurants, and my best friend lives here. I am actually at her work right now. She’s working til’ 2:00 and then we’re going for a walk. I like walking. In fact, it’s my favorite thing to do lately. Just being able to walk and walk and walk…looking at my surroundings, seeing houses, wondering who lives in these houses, people watching, smells of plants, flowers, food from restaurants…..blah, blah, blah….I’m sure I’m boring y’all. Anyways, here’s something more interesting. One of the bands we work with(POLYSICS) are coming to the United States from Japan next month. You see, it’s extremely expensive for a band to come to the states from Japan, so the Japanese bands we work with never get to tour the US, but POLYSICS are the luckiest of the lucky. They were featured on a compilation called Japan For Sale VOL. 3.(HTTP://JAPANFORSALE.NET) It’s released in the US by SONY Records. Anyways, they(SONY) are having 3 parties in the US to celebrate the release and they’ve picked POLYSICS as the live band from Japan that they want to play these parties. WOOHOO!! Great for me because I get to see them play live. And good for you because they have given me 50 guest list spots for each show that I get to give out to whomever I want. These shows are private affairs and aren’t open to the public. It’s entirely invite only, but for some reason they gave me 50 spots at each show. I guess I’m cool..Eh? NO? Anyways, here are the shows they are playing: MAY 26th-Double Door(21+)-CHICAGO MAY 27th-Bottom Of The Hill(21+)-SAN FRANCISCO MAY 29th-Knitting Factory(All Ages)-LOS ANGELES Sorry about the 21+ shows. There will be free food and drinks at these shows.(I know it’s crazy), but I’m just passing on the information that they’ve given me. And the first 100 people that come get a free care package that has some crazy limited edition toy.. I’m not exactly sure what the deal is, but free is good. So, just email me at mikeasianman@aol.com and give me your first and last name and what show you want to go to. You will be given a +1, so you and a friend can come to the show. I’ll be at the LA and SF show, but not the Chicago show. Oh well. I’ll be there early eating the food, so look for me and say “HI”. Also, I will be playing an acoustic show on May 9th. The show is in San Francisco and it’s an all ages show at The Mission Badlands/Balazo Gallery. It’s located at 2811 Mission St. @ 24th right above Friday Kahlo Pizza. The show is $5 and tickets are only available at the door. This is a record release party for the Underground Screams CD. Playing with me will be the Clarendon Hills and the Skyflakes. There’s also a few other bands playing, but I think I’m going on 3rd out of 5 bands. The show starts at 8PM and I’ll be going on at around 9 PM. So it would be fun to see a lot of happy faces at the show. And finally, I mentioned earlier that we would be having a night out at the A’s game for some fun and excitement. Well, I’ve decided on a date of June 18th. The A’s are playing the Rangers. The game is at 7:05 PM. Unfortunately, $1 Wednesdays are now $2 Wednesdays. But that’s still pretty cheap. I will be bringing a full barbeque set up and we will have tons of food, drinks(Both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), and blaring PUNK ROCK. So, if you want to go to the game, please RSVP at mikeasianman@aol.com. Let me know how many of you are going and I’ll get the appropriate number of tickets. By the way, I’m listening to Ani Difranco, They Might Be Giants, and Miles Davis today and my favorite color is green. I must not forget to thank the nice girl who wrote a beautiful poem about peace for me. Thanks for sharing. It’s much appreciated. Ok. That’s it for now. Take care everyone. Be good, smile big, don’t be a tough guy, and believe in peace. It’s possible. Peace Always, Mike Park |
