Rebel Girl Smells Like Teen Spirit

This is a re-write 3 days later.

Kathleen Hanna seems cool. I don’t know her, but I loved the last video in this post of her at Joe’s Pub. It pushed me to become mini obsessed with her over the last week. That might not seem like a long time for most people, but for an obsessive Aquarius like myself it is enough time to form a 100 page hypothesis on this observable phenomenon.

I edited this post 3 days later. Someone rated the post 1 star which means they thought it sucked ass. Which it did! This might not be any better, but they are my words. I don’t care about the one star per se, but if I am going to get it I want it to be for my words, not “facts” I found on this world wide web. That’s reduncqulous. :]

On with the show!

This video is from when Kathleen was with Bikini Kill.

She released a solo album under the name Julie Ruin in 1998.

She then went live as the lead singer for Le Tigre in the late 1990s.

This last video is about how Hanna’s drunken tagging of Kurt Cobain’s apartment inspired the name for Nirvana’s single, “Smells Like Teen Spirit”. It’s preformed at Our Hit Parade staring, Kathleen Hanna, Kenny Mellman, Carmine Covelli, Mike Jackson and Mr. Adam Horovitz. They also did Bikini Kill’s “Rebel Girl”. :]

12-15-2010 at Joe’s Pub in NYC.

It is pretty awesome. Kathleen Hanna is super fresh.

Day 88 – That’s Right

That's Right

I am not going repeat what I already wrote here. A quick synopsis, starting August 1st, 2010 I will publish a picture I take that day everyday for a year (well to be exact I will do this everyday until July 31st, 2011). This is the 88th of those photographs. Also, there is a Flickr collection called “The Awesome Leftovers” where I put the daily shots (if any) that didn’t make the cut.

Angie came into town and we went to Our Hit Parade starring Bridget Everett, Kenny Mellman and Neal Medlyn at Joe’s Pub, then ran around the East Village. Here are those shots.

Great times.
