ShitOuttaLuck

I’ve never been before, and I’m partly excited, and partly loathing the idea. I’ve never hired a cab. I’ve never been East of the Mississippi. I’ve never worried about whether I have enough business wear for work. Last week when I went to Washington, I actually got a lot done because I was able to concentrate of a few projects and focus on thinking through some Ideas I’ve been kicking around. I suspect there will be times like this next week too. Dunno if I’ll do any sightseeing, but if I do, I’ll post some pics to flickr when I can.

And now I wanna listen to Squib Cakes…

WOW.

I didn’t get to celebrate much beyond a mini lemon-meringue pie dessert at work today.  Today also happens to be Albert Einstein’s birthday.

π = 3.14159265…. etc

I hope someday we’ll have an imaginary unit day and and Eulers number day too.  That would be radical, but irrational.

I’m with Ted on this one.

Fun show tonight! Thanks to everyone who came out to represent. Also, special thanks to Ted for taping this. I hope to post highlights as soon as I figure out how to get the video from my new HD camera onto my Mac so I can then convert it into something more appropriate for our site.

I have a couple of tickets to give away for our show, happening this Sunday March 11th.

Leave me a comment below with your email address to get ‘em.

I posted this on craigslist last night.  Do you know someone that could help us find a trombone player?  Let us know!

ShitOuttaLuck (www.shitouttaluck.com) is looking for a trombonist to join us. We rehearse in Fremont and play regularly in the Bay Area. We mix our genres: Rock, Latin, Punk, Funk, Jazz, Ska… it’s all stuff we like and have fun playing.

ShitOuttaLuck is an established (since 1998) six-piece, female fronted band (seven if you’re into us), and we’re in the midst of recording our second full-length album (read: we need trombone tracks too). If you have chops, a sense of humor, and most-importantly enjoy playing music in front of an upbeat and energetic audience, PLEASE check out our sound – and contact us!!!

I don’t get the point - which proportedly is to demonstrate GM’s commitment to quality.  Instead, I’m left thinking about all of the “real” people that they’ve had to lay off because management can’t seem to succeed in making a quality product that people want to buy.  The ad cost somewhere around $5 million to make.  I wonder how many salaries that could have covered.

Even if the point of this ad was to shock and create a buzz – which it certainly has, it does nothing positive in my mind.  I’m even less inclined to check out a GM car after watching this.  Isn’t that supposed to be the point of buying ad time on TV? 

What do you think?

Har, Har, Har.
