The primary purpose of this blog is to document the records we play so that the one guy who reads this blog who isn't in this club knows what the fuck is going on. Well, guy, I must explain our absence.
--
After the demon Torcor sucked us into a hell dimension things took a turn for the worse. We were only permitted to play 1990s nu-metal records that skipped. Torcor forced himself into the group. He always played ICP.
Torcor loved ICP.
This is a thinly-disguised Torcor at an ICP concert:
Look GUY, I won't bore you with too many details, and to be honest the rest of us would love to put the last several months behind us. We hold deep in our hearts the horrorz of our time in hell. It was hot and we just had one of those toy record players and Torcor wouldn't let us eat bacon. He ate the bacon in front of us. We were forced to become vegans. I mean what the fuck Torcor?
Eventually we rose up. I liberated the Axis of Brancor from Torcor's room and opened a portal back home. We weren't able to save Stroble. Torcor arrived just as he was climbed through the portal and sucked him back in. He showed up this Sunday, shoes untied and stains on his shorts and hair askew. He didn't look great. When I asked him how he escaped he just shook his head and closed his eyes. I knew. I knew.
Allen still has nightmares, poor guy. Others feel the horrorz of our time in hell differently. In some sort of weird fucking Stockholm Syndrome kind of shit, Crafty only listens to ICP now. We're like dude Crafty Torcor is dead Allen threw a record like a frisbee and decapitated him you don't have to pretend anymore.
Crafty just says: "Yeah...I know man...."
It's devastating, really.
Anyway GUY, that's what happened.

This one was at my house. There were hot cocktail wiatresses waitresses and my friend John Mellencamp showed up and played Rick Springfield which was super embarrassing and secretly catchy. We all know what's going on.
It is very cold outside. I am very drunk. Those cocktail waitresses are back but I'm like "ladies, ladies, lovelies, records are more important."
Between us and the cocktail waitresses, the place got super small super quick!

This one was at Allen's house. I don't remember much about it but the one thing that sticks out at me was that Stroble ordered some strippers for us as a special surprise but Jon was like I'm a married man so I don't approve of this and we were all like fuck dude what the fuck? Allen didn't give a shit.
He was too busy playing air sax to that song from that scene in the Kiefer Sutherland movie about vampires.
This scene:
Typical Allen.
Jeb: Sister Rosetta Tharpe: s/t

I'm pretty drunk but I did look for a video and couldn't find one. But this record WAS really good and I liked it. He has spoken.

Drew's house, I think, I dunno I snorted cocaine off of somebody's cat. You all have cats. Could have been anybody really. Crazy shit. Point is, we had record club in September. I'm sure it was very fun. Bryan didn't come to this one and wasn't seen again until the one at my house. While I can say that I had seen him between then and then and then and then, I cannot guarantee he has not been replaced by a robot or an alien from the planet Zorgon.
Zorgon is real.
So is Ween. Say, speak of Ween.

John's house
Held at John's duplex on a quiet little street in Broad Ripple, we spun some great little records and had some great little conversations and even played a little air saxophone. Stroble showed us a video of his mom dancing with some guy while some woman grinded all up on a 75 year-old soul singer who's still got it. It was generally agreed Stevie Nicks was a babe well into the 90s.
Top notch, fellas.
