Scottsdale 

I was born in Scottsdale, yet over the past few days I have come to realize that I have no concept of what it is, or more appropriately, what it has become. I spent this weekend living in the "new desert", and while I'm not sure I have the ability to translate my confusion into words I feel a need to at least make the attempt.

First I'd like to say that staying in this strange place has made me hungry in the morning, which is very abnormal for me. I usually hold out for lunch.

Northern Scottsdale, which is now attached to Carefree and Cave Creek, is unlike any other place in the world. It consists of a series of desert themed communities, rows and rows of the same house right next to each other, all the exact same shades of tans and browns. Scattered amongst these communities are strip malls that are also tan and brown.

Every thing is the same color. This confuses the mind into believing that it is actually in the desert instead of a strip mall. I found myself becoming unable to distinguish Walgreens from a pile of rocks, and Starbucks from a Palo Verde tree. It only took a couple days for me to start believing that these corporate entities are actually part of the natural environment. And here lies the dark truth of this surreal place:

Scottsdale has succeeded in merging corporate culture with nature.

Even I could not resist the illusion. When trying to find some aloe vera lotion last night for my sunburnt body, I found myself asking, "Is that a Safeway or a mountain?" And then I found myself wondering "Is there any difference?"

I'm back at home now in Tempe, but I have forever been changed. I do not feel at home. The "city" seems strange and unnatural... my freshly enlightened mind wants to return to the only ecosystem in the world with upscale shopping and eateries, the eighth natural wonder of the world... Scottsdale.

I didn't know Jack fucking Dandy was the guest blogger on today's Iron Lemon Post.
 

Mwahahahahah :)
 

I'm surprised you made it out. I have known several poor souls who ventured into North Scottsdale, never to return. They were last seen driving brand new Hummers, subsisting on only nine dollar cups of coffee, and watching the Oprah Winfrey television show. It is a treacherous place. Beware.
 

i find the mesquite shrimp at rawhide quite tasty
 

There's no place like home.

hello 

Tonight I am going to record some more bass for the latest Reubens Accomplice demos. We now have around 18 or so songs to pick and choose from for the next album, and some of them are pretty good. Maybe I will post some snippets of songs for you to hear soon.

Tomorrow I have a rehearsal with The Threads for Friday's show. I think there might be at least one new song performed on Friday... it might be worth checking out.

I don't know if I have mentioned it or not, but there is an album that is soon to be released by The Threads. I play drums on about half the songs and some other instruments too. I'll let you know when it's ready.

Is anyone using the ironlemon jukebox? The link for it is up in the left corner.

I have been, and I have to admit that "Identification Please" may be my new favorite song. I can actually picture you looking for your wallet...
 

don't tell me what to do
 

sure show where your priorities are. i guess the adc songs can just go off and die somewhere, forced to live a meager existence without a bass track while the Ruebens songs go off into top 40 hit land. How can you treat your children like this?
 

Hey, what the fuck? wern't you supposed to come to MA. last week? Fuck your jut box & leave it to Seth to be the only brown noser whose gonna use that piece of shit. My dad says HI!
 

I won't be allowed to sleep on Ryan's DNA covered blanket if I don't brown nose.
 

I don't have DNA
 

It has been mentioned that Ryan is an unfeeling cyborg bastard child. perhaps he doesn't have DNA. Don't be mad at Whiskey Jr. He is only four years old.
