This is a rock and roll, sci-fi, film noir, B&W, zero budget western musical and it probably doesn't make any sense unless you are the writer (Cory McAbee) or have an IQ over 200 or under 50. But it looks like a strange, weird, humorous, very very eldritch movie absolutely filled to the brim with Bad People of the Future -- being set in the future and containing lots of bad people.

or you can just say fuck it, it's Thursday night, and I'm gonna go catch a buzz, watch a whacked out movie and then melt my brains with alcohol with Johnnie Royale. The American Astronaut is playing at the Lumiere (1572 California, SF), which isn't located in the finest neighborhood in the world, but it is the only place the American Astronaut is playing between Portland and LA - so we don't have a lot of choice.
The plan is to meet at either the Hanauma Bay (1548 California) or the Tango Tango (1550 California) , depending on which looks more Pigdogish,. Both of the bars are (according to the map) within spitting distance of the theater. For those really concerned about meeting up, email me off list for my cell number.
The movie should end about 9:10 or so and afterwards we'll be moving over to the Edinburgh Castle (950 Geary) which is about 5 blocks south and is fine Scottish bar that serves a good pint of Guinness and decent dinner as well -- assuming you like haggis. So if you miss the movie, you can catch up with us there.
Typical Pigdog mayhem will continue until at least midnight when the Bart Pumpkins will sprint for the last transbay public transportation option.
Unfortunately, the Lumiere is unlikely to allow pigs or dogs or even pigdogs, so you'll just have to leave them at home folks.

Ah, it's that special time of year again. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, crowded, dangerous streets filled with maniac shoppers rushing to the mall to buy Pokemon action figures, and getting hammered at the Xmas party and insulting the boss's hair weave. That's right: it's time to drink heavily and wait out life's little nagging miseries, holiday variety. Pigdog is here to help. (More...)

A Treatise Prepared for the Gallup Organization on the Symbolism of the Scarab
Well dahlings, the response to my new tarot column has been quite overwhelming. I got three whole pieces of mail requesting my arcane insight. One asked why blogs suck so much, and one was a completely incomprehensible tale of bears shitting random numbers in the woods — I am fairly certain it was a cryptographic allegory. Howsomever, only ONE of the inquiries was accompanied by a crisp ten-dollar bill, and so it's the Gallup Organization that will this week reap the benefit of my wicked pack of cards. (More...)

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
