Every day from 12am to 12pm I listen to one song. the same tune over and over and over. The fucking things only three minutes long, how come they can’t get it right? Making a ‘POP’ record is an amazingly tedious and vastly repetative affair, like having sex with the same person for years and never having an orgasm – but without the fun. Linda Perry is relentless. She’s driving the band like a tank through cheese…never lets them slack. It makes J cry and N tetchy. It’s ok in the end because the track sounds mental and brilliant, the producer has a visceral talent and it’s amazing to watch the way people act around her. She’s like a little mama duck, when she moves around the studio her little ducks follow her, people also seem intimidated by her.
LA is full of people carrying around these weird little rat dogs, they are like the latest fashion accessory, it’s so demeaning to both the person and the dog, ah fuck it, they are yappy little creatures that I want to stamp on, but not as much as I want to stamp on the owners. I think they are breeding them without legs in green for next season. It’s like, have the biggest SUV and the smallest dog you can find. It’s fucked up as they would say here. The Californians vocabulary average’s 4 words these are Awesome, Totally (usually juxtaposed to Awesome) lame and dude. Makes for a fun time down at the bookstore…
The world of LA is not like the rest of the USA but it’s seductive and the feeling is of a lavish lifestyle is just around the corner. Everything is way to big here though – It’s really a foreign country and it’s definitely no country for old men…
More very soon
