THE YEAR 2006
By Miss Oblivious
Good daze to you all,here is my monthly update of mishaps and on going messes..what a great 2006!
Dame Darcy came to great northwest in the begining of Autumn and I was able to catch 2 shows and a book signing! very angelic! www.damedarcy.com to read her journals
I was also interveiwed for an Austrian Zine archiver which I am very pleased with...
i think it's at www.grrrlzines.com
LA was great to me and I finally got a chance to spend quality time with some friends (new & old), thanks to KUBO(high school pal) n Eric for being hospitable on my first night in the city of Angels and showing me the "Cretins" clubhouse and some fine spirit facilities(Bars).
Kubo n her ImperialElisa was my next Host and I wanna say it was sweet to hang out and get reaquainted since it's been awhile(she and I were roomies for 2 years but that was over 10 years ago)we normally only spend time in big groups.
I did the typical Hollywood bus tour, had fine japanese cuisine and chit chat with Ginger Coyote, a good time at Tiny's on Hollywood Blvd, and a girls night in with Elisa(nails,hair n ice cream).
I awoke in the a.m and my back popped and damn I was in pain for the remainder if my stay. I was able to spend time with DW (www.DawnWirth.com), and her daughter Sarah. She is a photographer from the LA 77 scene and photographed London 77 as well. We went to www.HollywoodForevercemetary.com, a great Diner , Max Factor Film Mueseum, Photo opts at The Masque entrance (which Terry Grahm will be using in his upcoming book"My life as a punk"),The Caderbury gates, Blag Dahlia ol' home and a great practice with Franklin Ex.

In which I'd like to thank Kubo,Christian,Julia Tiffany and all the others whom were waiting for me! We then had to run over to my other show in downtown LA at www.TheHiveGallery.com! Amazing is what I have to say! This place was very impressive as were all the artist in this show, I felt honored to be a part of this magic( thanks to www.CarolPowell.com) for including me)!
We then ran over to www.FranklinEx.com show at The Lava Lounge in downtown Hollywood! They were spectacular along with Tweak bird. I met some nice limey boys that made swell mixes.
I was able to wobble to the Hollywood Farmers market in the morning but that Calif sun+backache=nap.. oh yeah my big star encounter was with Jake Julinhaul(sp?), he was buying hummus along with us!
so I flew back to the northwest to prepare for Libby(www.RANCH-AND-ROLL.com) and her extravaganza that we'd be selling at! Great FUn Libby is one of my newest pals in the great NW!
libbys upholstery shopthen the following Sunday was www.iheartrummage.com which is always a great time and great buisness venture!
then I had to prepare for the next mornings 6 a.m. flight to California!all went smoothly! I did two radio promos for the shanghaied giesha which were KFJC89.3 fm & KSCU103.3 fm, The SF Chronicle did a full page a day prior of the show and even www.juxtapoz.com had The Shanghaied Geisha on their online calander.
