SUMMER OF DEATH
The summer of 2009 is mine! Lots of mufuckaz be dyin, y'all! FARRAH FAWCETT- Married to lousy jerk, posed in cold + wet red swimsuit (causing infamously and internationally iconic nipple erection) with Gleem-polished grin for poster, gets role in cheesy-ass "crime drama", spends rest of life on and off with another lousy jerk, dies terribly painful death. That's all I know. SKY SAXON- Leader of '60s psychedelic garage rockers The Seeds. Was lucky enough to witness this odd talent live in 2001 at Mr. T's Bowl in Los Angeles. Bummer he's gone. MICHAEL JACKSON- I got super sad and cried at the thought of the little Black boy who sang "Ben" dying, then shrugged indifferently at the thought of the surgically altered freakazoid dispensing Jesus juice to grab pre-teen ween dying. BILLY MAYS- I don't care if I'm going to hell for saying I was happy and relieved that this one kicked the bucket. His voice got on my damn nerves. When the news added the juicy tidbit that cocaine helped kill his ass it just got mo better, like the gift that keeps on giving. Yay! LES PAUL- Brilliant man who devised some of the most invaluable inventions in rock and roll, not the least of which are the electric guitars bearing his name. Old as hell so he had to go, but still a bummer because it means another great is gone. ELLIE GREENWICH- Writer of some of rock and roll's most dopest jams including but not limited to "Da Doo Ron Ron" and "Leader of the Pack". She worked her marvelous craft with Phil Spector's crazy ass at the production helm, but at least the homicidal son of a bitch made her shit sound good. TED KENNEDY- I surprised myself by getting all sensitive and varklempt about this one. Maybe it was the fact that he was The Last of his dynamic dynasty, or the way he so fearlessly fought his illness that impressed me. Dude was tough! I'm curious what Jello Biafra has to say. DOMINICK DUNNE- High-falutin true crime writer with the testicular fortitude to write his first such piece about the murder of his own daughter, Dominique. Mad propz (and the fact we share the same initials has not been lost on me). Only the finest champagne should be poured out over this dead homie's grave. I feel like I'm forgetting some; these were off the top of my skull. Fill me in if you have more so I can talk some more shit/drop some more praise. Love, Diana Death | | Thursday, August 20th, 2009 | | 5:23 pm |
omg wtf lol
I used to a a fan of Perez Hilton's gossip column until a friend recently turned me on to www.dlisted.com Perez is like so tame and passé now, it's all about Michael K (another gay Latino chismoso). This website has totally changed my life. | | Friday, June 26th, 2009 | | 12:58 am |
WOW
This is officially the strangest, most exciting day I've had in years! The day isn't even over yet; I'm expecting even more crazy excitement tonight! Don't have time to type a proper post about it, but maybe tomorrow I will | | Sunday, June 7th, 2009 | | 9:27 am |

Manchester Rock City, 3
THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN The kids today would call these guys "emo" due to their gothy image (black clothes, blank pose), but to me they were more like a fuzzed-out hybrid of the V.U. when Nico was singing and Brian Wilson. On heroin. In the dark. Yeah.  What does psycho candy taste like, anyway? I imagine it's kinda fruity.  You're gonna fall down dead.  Okay, so they ARE rather emo. Dig it, anyway.

prepubescent puerto rico amor
Yesterday Hector and I committed a musical crime against humanity by recording a punkoid cover version of "Subete a Mi Moto" by Menudo. It's so wonderfully horrid! I do fuzztone and lead guitar w/lead vocals; he does drums, bass, rythm guitar, and backup vocals. We think it would be funny as hell to get it played on Mexican radio stations. Be very afraid. | | Thursday, March 5th, 2009 | | 4:26 pm |
hmm...
I wonder how many human eggs it would take to make an omelet, and would it taste different if it was "whites only"? | | Monday, February 23rd, 2009 | | 4:33 pm |
Black History Month
Oh man, I've been lagging on this shit. Last night I dreamt there was going to be a musical version of Dante's "Divine Comedy" completely penned by Chuck Berry. I couldn't wait to hear his rendering of the Inferno. | | Thursday, February 5th, 2009 | | 4:24 pm |
aw, damn
The good news is that I've entered the digital age to such a degree that I'm now able to write posts from my mobile device. The bad news is that I have to use this technological advancement to comment on the deaths of two true rockers. RON ASHETON Guitarist of Iggy and the Stooges, and a huge influence on my playing. The type who would leave your ass black and blue with every revolution on the turntable, a loud ass motherfucker who needed only 3 chords to kill. Much love and respect from me to you. Nominated 7 times for the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame, and just got dissed yet again! But I'm glad they didn't just give you the dead sympathy vote, cos that would have been bullshit, too. LUX INTERIOR Lead singer of The Cramps. His howling and hiccuped screams were a major part of my adolescent soundtrack, and I was lucky to have witnessed it live a few times. The first was when I was in my teens, maybe 10th or 11th grade, and I was lucky they finally played an all-ages gig, cos I'd missed them before. A local zombie surf combo called Deadbolt opened, some stupid noisemeisters called Throw Rag (or was it Doo Rag?) played second, and The Cramps headlined. I enjoyed Deadbolt's spooky vaudeville, but during Throw Rag I got up to get a soda. Standing alone in the shadows was a ridiculously tall, lean figure wearing a black cowboy hat. I whispered to my friends, "Hey, that's Lux Interior!", but they said, "no way, he's not wearing a vinyl catsuit and heels, that's not him." But I was convinced otherwise, and wanted to find out for sure. Somehow I got up the sober 16 year old nerve to walk up to the shy-looking guy dressed in simple black jeans and shirt and said, "Pardon me, I'm nearsighted, but are you Lux Interior?" He replied, "I'm farsighted, so that makes us even. And yes, I am." I asked if he saw Deadbolt, but he said, "no, we just got here." I said, "Oh, that's too bad, cos I think you would have liked them a lot. Oh well, have a good gig tonight!" We smiled, shook hands, and I walked back to my friends, who thought I was crazy to approach that dude. Years later Deadbolt did a West Coast tour with The Cramps and they made good friends, and I couldn't help feeling proud that I had made the initial connection between the two in some small, weird way. Anyway, Lux was super nice to a goofy teenager, and I'll never forget that. Rest in peace, brothers. Love always, DD | | Monday, December 15th, 2008 | | 7:22 pm |
Manchester Rock City, 2
THE BUZZCOCKS. Sensitive and fey yet still kickass mod/punk power pop. I fucking love these guys!  When your records are spinning, I am forever 15.  Ever fallen in love with someone you shouldn't have fallen in love with? Yes, Pete, I like totally have.  Life's an illusion, love is a dream, but I don't know what it is... | | Sunday, December 14th, 2008 | | 7:50 pm |

thankfulness
Since I'm rarely on a computer, I may as well make my thankful post now. My band has 2 gigs in December (one in San Diego and another in Long Beach), and they're both totally fucking rad! I'm still musically accompanied by Clay and Gary, who are both totally fucking rad! I still have both my parents, and they're also both totally fucking rad! Iggy Pop and Keith Richard are also still alive, along with some other last rockers on Earth. Too tough to die! I'm still gainfully employed at Thee Best Firm, Ever. I'm a member of the world's greatest karaoke krew, and have the best friends a person could hope for. My home is not burning down this week. I don't have any illnesses (that I know of). And lots of other stuff I can't think of right now. Love always, DD | | Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 | | 8:02 pm |
YES WE DID
Just writing to express my gratitude to all my fellow voters who helped make history last Tuesday night. I'm also a bit proud it was the state of CA that put the electoral count over the top! Nice work, folks! : ) I was recently listening to "Night Train" by James Brown, and was particularly struck when I heard him sing, "WASHINGTON, D.C." How I wish he'd lived to see that day... Please understand that I mean ABSOLUTELY NO HARM OR DISRESPECT when the synapses in my brain fire in such a way that the words "Chocolate Camelot" appear in my mind's eye, or when I can't help but think of our new First Lady as "Blackie O". Seriously. I'm politically incorrect like that, but it's only out of affection.  I never loved Ronald Reagan. I never loved George Bush, Sr. I never loved Bill Clinton. I never loved W. But for the first time in my life I can say in all earnestness that I love our new President!! I just hope and pray he and his family are kept safe. ps- Mitch Mitchell of the Jimi Hendrix Experience was found dead today, and that really sucks. | | Saturday, October 25th, 2008 | | 8:56 pm |
On the Political Tip, 3
Here I am, via absentee ballot, participating in an historic movement to elect That One and the Scrapper from Scranton!  | | Wednesday, October 15th, 2008 | | 8:45 pm |
Raddest '80s Electropop, 17
The phrase "New Romantic" got me thinking of the psychotronic composer GARY NUMAN cos "Me, I Disconnect From You" and "I Die, You Die" are the shit!!  ...just to name 2 of his many rad songs.  and even though they were technically from the late 1970s, my mental jukebox won't allow me to get away without also posting one of the TUBEWAY ARMY!  Damn, the pictures in their original form were much smaller, but blew up huge when actually posted. I don't know why. I swear, I will NEVER get the hang of this computer shit! I belong in a padded cell with an Apple 2-E or a Commodore Vic-20. Sorry. | | Tuesday, October 14th, 2008 | | 7:44 pm |
Raddest '80s Electropop, 16
I really, really love the song "Planet Earth", so I'd be doing a dastardly disservice to the jukebox in my brain --the entity that dictates the content of this website-- if I didn't include early, NewRomantical pictures of: DURAN DURAN!    <3 with a wink and a terrorist fist jab at ya, DD |
