Volunteered with RC for the Destroy All Movies!!! book release film fest a few weekends ago. Since working only mean't handing out copies between flicks, we got to watch the films for free! Basically, the book is a guide to punk rock in the movies and on TV. The editors did a book tour and LA was the last stop. I got to see The Slog Movie and Desperate Teenage Lovedolls which are both beyond classic slices of early 80's hardcore in Los Angeles. Filmmakers Dave Markey and Jordan/Jennifer Schwartz were on hand for a Q and A between the movies and Okie Dog delivered a truckload o' dogs for the large crowd.
I wanted to go early and catch Urgh!!! - A Music War but didn't have the fortitude to spend all day inside a theater.

mmmm mmmmmm good!
While in Chandler, AZ for Thanksgiving, I found this in the Lee Lee Oriental Market. (Their name, not mine...)
What can I say? it appealed to the 8-year-old in me. I'll probably give it to someone as a literal "gag" gift. :)
Meanwhile, the market itself was awesome. It's more of an ethnic market than just an Asian one. They stocked stuff from Africa, Jamaica as well as South America. I am happy to see they saw a need and filled it, because that place was sweet. Check out the link, there are pictures.

Razorcake #59 out now!
Includes a little more Garrett goodness. I get a top 5, a book review and a few zine reviews. Beware of issue #60, where I just unleash.
