Hello Friendly Person
I'll be honest, I've been having a tough
time since Corey Haim died. But not just because of the tragedy of it
all, I mean the guy was Lucas fer chrissake! What I'm really mourning is the passing of my dreams to snorting blow off the backsides of models
with Hollywood's finest at the Mondrian after establishing myself as a
highly successful screenwriter. See, when Corey Haim was put in a coffin so was my great idea for a sequel to Lost Boy -- a sequel that would
reboot Haim's career, kick-start mine, and turn the whole vampire craze
inside out. I might as well share the outline with you now, since you
are the only audience who will ever know about this important piece of
cinematic cogitation.
FADE IN:
We have a slow opening SHOT on a foggy night in SF. We know it's foggy because you can hear the fog HORNS, plus there's all this FOG. It's all very EVOCATIVE.
We're up in Twin Peaks and it seems like a pleasant enough spooky night,
until we hear the scared PANTING of some guy. Then we see him, and he's
this old cyclist in one of those gay, tight spandex cycling body suits,
and he's peddling hard and looking back over his shoulder like he's
scared for his LIFE or something. He races by the camera, and then we
hear sinister LAUGHING, peddling, and WHOOSHING. We don't see the
originators of this cacophony of chaos, but we know they're bad because
they sound EVIL.
CUT TO the biker guy. He's at the top of Twin
Peaks now, he's out of breath, but he's prepared to keep going. Then
there's a WHOOSHING sound and get suddenly gets a FLAT TIRE. He SCREAMS. Now with a flat tire, the guy is totally at the mercy of the evil
that's pursued him, and he's in trouble because these things have NO
MERCY. The last we see of him is a shot from ABOVE, as something evil
descends on him, lifts him off his bike, and carries him off into fog
and LAUGHTER.
MUSIC plays and the credits roll: LOST BOYS: FIXIE
HIPSTER VAMPS OF DOOM
Then we INTRODUCE the protagonist. His name is BRODY, and he's an extremely good-looking kid from the mid-west
who's moved to San Francisco with his younger brother with dreams of
opening an organic coffee shop in the Mission. For now, though, he
settles for working in an organic coffee house in the Mission and
working on his bicycle, which is rad. It's clear Brody is not local,
though, because he doesn't have a beard or skinny jeans, and none of his tshirts are at all ironic.
CUT TO an evening shot of Market
Street. It's CRITICAL MASS and Brody is riding with his brother on rad
bikes, attempting to make friends. Brody's attention is captured by an
extremely hot, but dark and evil-looking chick with BANGS, riding a
fixie. Her name is DAPHNE and she eye fucks Brody until he starts to
ride towards her, and then she rides away to join a group of extremely
good-looking HIPSTER FIXIE VAMPS who are riding along side Critical
Mass, looking mean. They all have these IRONIC beards, plus skinny jeans, and some of them even look HOMELESS-CHIC. Daphne rides with them and she has big SUNGLASSES. They take on look at Brody's
bike, which is not a fixie, and they laugh and ride away menacingly.
THE PLOT CONTINUES TO EVOLVE IN A CAPTIVATING WAY
Brody is compelled to hang out with the evil Fixie Hipsters, who push him to his bicycle
riding LIMITS. Brody is pretty cool, but they're like 'meh'. Later,
Brody's brother notices that Brody is wearing skinny jeans, and he's
started to grow a beard. He's starting to CHANGE.
THE PLOT
CONTINUES TO EVOLVE IN AN EVEN MORE CAPTIVATING WAY
Later in the
story, there's a CONFRONTATION, wherein Brody is forced to confront the
head Hipster Vamp. Brody's brother enlists the help of Corey Haim and
Frank Chu to fight the vampires, and Frank uses his 12 Galaxies sign as a stake, which impales the lead vampire and FREES San Francisco from the
curse of the evil Hipster Fixie Vamps.
Or does IT?
FADE TO BLACK

Soul of Man on the
Gough Street Sessions
So earlier this week an unexpected
treat was dropped into the Gough Street inbox by our good friend Justin
Rushmore, one half of the extraordinary production duo known as Soul of
Man (Fingerlickin’ Records). It’s the second volume in Justin’s
“Breakin’ in the House” series, a delectable 86-minute
everything-but-the-kitchen-sink mash-up that leaves no genre left
unsampled.
“In recent years DJ sets have been getting back to
their eclectic roots, mashing up genres”, says Justin. “In this mix I’ve taken my favorite current house, breaks, disco, electro, techno, even
dubstep tunes. These are the big ones destroying my dance floors!
Subfocus, Armand Van Helden, Groove Armada, Slyde, Cirez D, Elite Force, Evil 9 and more. Plus, an exclusive tune from my new project Rushmore
& Fiasco ‘The Vibe’. Enjoy the Selection!” (And enjoy it we will,
Justin. No worries there. I think it’s safe to say this mix is about to
find its way to the top of many iTunes playlists!)
There are two
ways you can get Justin’s “Breakin in the House” mix:
1. Directly from Box.net: http://bit.ly/SOM-breakin-in-the-house
2. Or by subscribing to the Gough Street Sessions: http://bit.ly/goughstreet-iTunes (this is optional. You don't have to
use this if you don't want)
