Sink Your Teeth Into This

I am here to shock and dismay all other gays in the world but this boy is not a fan of Lady GaGa - for some reason her schtick just don't stick to me. I will admit she has a much better voice than most of her contemporaries and she certainly likes to change things up a bit - but I'm afraid her constant changing in such short time is going to be her downfall... but alas, I have finally found a Lady GaGa video I can get behind, and in front of and wrap my legs around... I give you TEETH: (note: this is some hot stuff)

Getting It Together

No this isn't an ode to the Parent Trap - though that might be a little fun. Instead I'll just go on and on about random items (such is my life)..

this weekend kicked my ass - Friday night I met my pals Amy and Marc at Here to watch the Haitan relief concert - though to be honest we talked and drank over all of it. My pal Devin couldn't make it cause he was editing the Swivek video for "Rock Hard" - that's right beatches, MY video is coming soon...

My other pal Brian came out and met us and we ended up hanging out with his straight brother from West Covina, his girlfriend Big Titties (sorry girl can't remember names for shizz), and two hipster gay boys from Covina and Pamona... I don't even know what Covina or Pamoma are though I think the latter is a convenience store... which would explain why the guy was a total douche bag.

We ended drunk and crazed at Fubar where I ran inot more pals before one of the hipster dix got kicked out of the bar. Please note: I didn't get kicked out I just chose to leave with the obnoxious ones.

Then Saturday was my pal Geoff's birthday and we ended up spending a ton on good eats and good strippers at Mickey's. I once again got a little too buzzed but it wasn't really until Sunday with Miss A and Miss K that my check liver light finally came on - and by then it was far too late in the afternoon to do anything about it.

On the bonus I feel a tad better now (though my check card is once again behind the bar at Trunks - every single frickin' time I go there I forget it) and I did find out CD Baby has all the Swivek CDs and is busy getting them online and to the online sales merchants. Someone emailed me thoughts on the new album and they were all insanely positive. I never know exactly how to describe my music and have come down to "electro punk" which were the exact words written to me in the email so I guess I know my genres.

I am also THIS close to coming up with my final list for the Best Singles of the 90's so keep reading and watching and there will be new news as I crawl out from under my hangovers to type it out.

Blogroll

I love lists and I'm always making lists, as many of you know I have done the Top 100 Singles of the 80's and the top 100 Singles of the 70's and I'm currently working on my top 100 singles of the 90's. Meanwhile, there's a guy named Dave Steed who has upped me in the list department.

Dave has a weekly writing assignment going through all the songs of the 80's that scored on the Billboard charts above 40 to 100. And it's a lot of songs. He is currently on post 87 and is still on the S's (he is doing them alphabetically). It's an awesome read and he's finding all the songs.

I highly recommend starting at the beginning of his BOTTOM FEEDERS post:

Newsies

The new Swivek album EVERYBODY HATES YOU is in the mail and headed out to CD Baby as we speak. That means in just three short weeks the new Swivek album will be online and available to hear, buy and love. I know it's so exciting.

Also, the first single ROCK HARD is going to be released shortly after the album and it will include 3 smash remixes by some talented pals of mine (more on that to come) and we shot a video a few months ago and it's in the post production/production so get your lap tops ready cuz it's gonna be hot.

Until I get all the new Swivek stuff out there for you, here's a random little oldie to keep you going. One of my all time favs "Oliver's Army" by Elvis Costello!

Random BubbaTUNE

Here is a little tid bit to get you moving - A random BubbaTUNE:

your mama told you to be discreet
and keep your freak to yourself
but your mama lied to you all this time
she knows as well as you and I
you've got to express what is taboo in you
and share your freak with the rest of us
cause it's a beautiful thang

IT'S MACY GRAY babes:

New Year

Here we are a couple of weeks into the new year, so I figured it was about time to go back to the blog and get a few things started.

2009 was absolutely great. The Leivas and I went on a cruise, I went home to Wisconsin for a little visit, I finally got the Swivek album put together, we shot a video for "Rock Hard" and we ended with a trip to San Francisco.

This year isn't a big bed of roses so far, but you know it's gonna get better. As for the blog, the new Swivek music is coming soon, very very soon and there will be a million and one updates on Swivek.

There are also a few Bubbatunes in the works, so there will be a couple of BubbaTUNESday. Plus I heard from a very reliable source there is some Lisa Hartman news coming this year! And since the 00's have ended one decade I figured it was time we went back an extra decade and I'm putting together my Top 100 Singles Of The 90's. Then we will do the top 100 of the 00's. I know I have grandiose plans but it will be fun.

Until we really get started, here's a little pick of Bender and a crazy cat from our trip to San Francisco and if you like the pic and are on Facebook you can check out the whole series here.
