It rules being me today
As I’m sure most of you know, Travis is homeless (living at “Shabbey Road”) and jobless. Because of both he figured it was time for some major purging of his belongings… He told me that he was going to be selling alot of his cds/records and if I wanted to, I could have first dibs on whatever before he heads off to Ameoba to make some quick cash.
So after I got off work today, I jumped on the freeway and headed up to West Hollywood where I met up with him at Aaron’s place. Then I raped his cd collection, smoked what pot he had, drank three of Aaron’s Mountain Dew “Amps” and listened to Travis’s favorite punk 7″ from when he was 16 by a band called “Life After Johnny”, which suprisingly slays if you happend to be into whole Idaho punk scene. If anyone’s got “Life After Johnny” mp3s, email em to me.
Anyways, I left there with about a 100 cds (one being the Ultra Vivid Scene pictured above), high as balls like a kid at christmas minus the red rider bb gun. Thanks dude… it rules to be me today.
Also, Travis and I will be djing a bunch of shows at the El Rey and Henry Fonda this month. If you happened to be attending one of those shows look for us, say hi and buy us some beers (if you’ve got that kind of extra coin) cuz for some reason we only get four drink tickets for the both of us. And everyone knows four drinks ain’t getting either one of us even buzzed, we’re professionals.
Oh, and here are some tracks I really dig from this band called “Ride the Blinds”.
Ride The Blinds - Grace Alley [3:35m]Play Now Ride The Blinds - Takeing Back Whats Mine [5:40m]Play NowI don’t know much about they dudes besides that they rule.
Check em out and tell me what you think.

“always meant to be cool, end up playing a fool” .. yeah right you say Travis is homeless? hehe, so Troy Boy - be a good friend and dont steal what he has just let him sleep in your bed & use your shower! ;)
buuuuuut … if he lives at Shabbey Road now it’s not so bad i think. ;)
hahahaha, you guys are fun! love!

Ride the Blinds are a great band, a few years back I remember buggin them to come down to LA to play and they did, great live too. They definately have a Faces/Stones/Young & CH sound ! great post !
February 26th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
The songs were pretty cool. Yeah, that’s what happens when my frat boy friends come to my house. They steal all my music and drink all my diet coke.
February 26th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
Hey Travis, keep your chin up. I was in that exact same spot just a few months ago. This is when you learn who your friends are. Without my friends I would have been screwed. Sounds like your friends are as cool as mine.
February 26th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Travis, I know everything will work out for ya, it always does. Just keep doing what you do.
And Troy Boy, I hope you bought that stuff off him at least!
February 26th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
sounds like a pretty good deal. you don’t want that bb gun anyway…
you’ll shoot your eye out.
February 26th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
Travis, you should try driving a school bus. They’re always hiring.
February 26th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
a sick cross between credence and the minutemen? awesome!
February 27th, 2008 at 1:38 am
Sorry to hear things are ruff for you Travis. Hopefully it will get better. I was in your spot once, I was living out of a friends van for a bit, and some massive dumps, while I working on my first degree. It is ruff to give up and sell stuff, same time you get stronger from all this. Troy I never heard of these dudes, thank for the listen, I am now hunting for more.
February 27th, 2008 at 2:10 am
karma’s a bitch ;)
February 27th, 2008 at 5:39 am
I’m jobless and sorta homeless too, if you count back in with the parents homeless! Yyyaaaa!!!!
February 27th, 2008 at 7:06 am
everyone loves travis ;)
i hope you appreciate the support (though it’s just words..)
p.s. ok, i CAN send you my favorite pillow if you needed it ;)
SMILE!!!!
February 27th, 2008 at 12:05 pm
Hugs to Trav.
February 27th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
see, this is why when someone offers you a huge chunk of money in the late 90’s, you take it, rather than giving them the finger in the name of “not selling out.” Strokes might’ve been $uckin’ Dicks, bra, but at leats they be comfy 10 years later.
Jarvis, like I said, my Jew family will adpot you. You got a spot in my bro’s room, and in my heart.
February 27th, 2008 at 5:43 pm
has anyone heard of K.K. Rampage? they were getting sued by a sound man on judge mathis for the destruction of a microphone.the guitarist jokingly compared their popularity to the beatles. . .they play for 5 minutes and the fans bum rush the stage and bite, choke, and scratch nude members. They lost the case. $200 bucks. sounds exciting.
February 27th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Fuck selling out and fuck suckin corporate dick.
Cops, social contract this, cop. Social contract this, you pig.
Tell Travis Life After Johnny reads buddyhead and has for years.
February 27th, 2008 at 8:31 pm
Was it the Split 7′ with Haggis?
February 27th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
yeah….my bad!
February 28th, 2008 at 12:01 am
hey matt!
quit dicking around, smoke another bowl and get that buddyhead xmas party footage up, u ass!
*gratuitous emo-hearts*
February 28th, 2008 at 2:53 am
there’s always a wee room for ya in Scotland Travis!!!
February 28th, 2008 at 5:24 am
Hey Matt in case you didn’t know you’re a huge fuckin’ poser. Nick Oliveri isn’t the only one who hates you and nukes you… it’s 905 of the people reading this site. Stop.
That’s cool your parents have lots of money and sent you to college so you can learn how to “write well” and “get an education”. But no one cares because your taste in music is similar the dude who the average Starbucks customer. It can’t get any whiter. Fuck, you’re blinding me.
Spoon? Crystal Method? Please turn me onto some more of those groundbreaking and wild sounds you know about!!! Who’s next Dave Matthews Band? Jack Johnson?
Why the fuck does Buddyhead allows you to write for them? The worst is when you tried to talk about punk while you’re totally open about being this crazy rich jewish dickhead who lives off his prickhead parents. Real punk rock man, please enlighten me about life and music oh wise one who doesn’t have to work for shit.
And YO AARON AND TRAVIS! That is if you two pricks even read your own site anymore! You homos need to fire this kid and save what little face you two still have. Oh and write some gossip faggots
February 28th, 2008 at 9:49 am
Oh for the love of Hashem… Personally I always thought the idea of being “punk” was intrinsically tied to diversity and walking your own path, not lashing out at people for failing to conform to some antiquated ideal of lifestyle or musical tastes. But then again I’m white, educated, and Jew-ish myself, so what do I know.

“Its a beautiful world we live in, sweet romantic place.”
February 28th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
Yeah, don’t you get it, he’s being a total douchedrinker on purpose, so its cool. Personally, I just think you’re a shitty writer, but whatev’, I still read when Travis or Aaron posts. Rich kids who never had to work a day in their lives suck, but thats the world we live in.
February 28th, 2008 at 7:38 pm
Dammit, Matt, you goddamned Jew. You had to get on here and mention how it was supposed to be ironic. I wanted to shove that shit down Army Man’s throat, and maybe even mention a couple of Alanis lyrics.
Fuck. Now what am I going to do?
February 28th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
Hey Fatass - how exactly is talking exactly like Travis and Aaron by using all the same slang they speak in “creating or using your imagination”? I like how you use the words “we” when referring to what gets posted on here, etc. You’re about as much a part of buddyhead as you are the “punk” movement. Stop jumpin on all the bandwagons pussy and just admit you’re 10 years late, 45 pounds heavy, and riding the coattails of a friends who got into the club.
February 29th, 2008 at 1:17 am
I like Matt.
I think.
Boy, did you pay for those toys?

Blimmin Eck guys, do we need some lovely gooey love in here or what…
I just spent way too long thinking about how to cheer everyone up, and sticky keys came on. So I’m not going to think anymore.
March 1st, 2008 at 2:42 pm
if buying 100 old hardcore cd’s for cheap is the highlight of your day, it just means that you suck at life.
March 1st, 2008 at 4:17 pm
so troy boy,
top 5 of travis’ cd’s that you jacked? who’s got better taste in music? you or travis?… or aaron?
March 2nd, 2008 at 3:12 am
Buddyhead is soooo 2002. I have more fun ready everyone’s retarded comments than the actual blogs. I think there’s a such thing as large ego and small cock. Or saggy balls. Either way, it’s no good.
March 3rd, 2008 at 12:04 pm
haha, i agree Liz !!
March 3rd, 2008 at 2:24 pm
I think you just might suck at life if you’re sitting online
(on your fatass) commenting about how other people suck at life.
March 4th, 2008 at 2:22 am
Liz and Alison have awsome websites!

Pardon me, but what the shit is going on here? Ryan, you’re a dweeb, and i never call people out on the internet because i think it’s incredibly lame… but yes, you are a dweeb. Stop making a complete fool of yourself, this will only get worse if you continue. You need therapy, perhaps some anti-psychotics, and definitely a hobby.
March 5th, 2008 at 11:13 am
ryan: 1) your ebonics is slammin! Please refer to blackpeopleloveus.com and click on testimonials…please! 2) if you are black or jewish please disregard # 1. 3) luckily all the rock, punk, and death metal shows (parties)i went to i didnt meet a dude or duddette creepy like u who used ebonics to relate to me …thank u jesus! 4) u remind me of a guy who ate my hairy, dark ‘hoo hoo’ back in the day and tried to kiss me afterwards.he thought he was getting me off but he sucked at it.after that i went to women.best decision yet…women can be freaks too and bad at oral stimulation!

March 7th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
I saw them on judge mathis getting sued. I heard that they didn’t care because the show pays if they lose,thats why they acted that way. there is actual footage of the show that shows the fans damaged the mic by grabbing it out of the singers hand. I really dig this band. its hard to digest at first, but it is great noise rock/ no wave or no(w) wave.
christy
March 7th, 2008 at 8:13 pm
thanks christy…good to know someone else watched that show. The guitarist and judge mathis were funny.the sound guy seemed pissed though.
March 19th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
yeah…totally funny. if u are into that sort of music…check out xbxrx, aids wolf, lightning bolt, anything on skingraft records. The singer reminds me of Charles Manson. I wish all members were on the show! like would be totally warped ya know? LOL
