It is Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month. California has the largest community of Asian Americans in the country and we're having the largest and most rapid growth of that population. We have it on good authority that these folks, at least those with Japanese roots, want to rock.
The Asian Pacific Film Fest is going on right now and Wednesday night they are showing Linda Linda Linda, the tale of an all-female high school punk band with three days to learn how to rock out like the Blue Hearts and win the Big Spring Festival. It sounds like a madcap high school flick and even supposedly features a guest appearance by The Ramones. We've kind of gotta see something like that. Giant Robot is presenting the flick and it plays at the Laemmle Sunset 5 at 7pm. Online purchasing is closed but you should be able to pick up tickets at the box office.
GR also has tickets available for the last of Chan Wook's Vengeance films. This one is screening tomorrow night at the Westside Pavillion and you can get on the list by RSVP-ing with the subject line SFLV.

For the best book on the Ramones read,
"On The Road With The Ramones"
http://www.ontheroadwiththeramones.com
This is a MUST-HAVE book for all Ramones fans. It's an inside look from the people who were actually there witnessing and experiencing all the extreme highs and lows of one of rock's greatest bands. The Ramones' music has influenced nearly every power pop, punk, alternative, and metal band. Monte A. Melnick served as The Ramones tour manager from their early New York club days at CBGB's in the '70s to their farewell gigs in 1996. Filled with memorabilia including photographs and interviews collected along the way, this is his view of life on the road with the band as "baby-sitter to psychiatrist, booking agent to travel agent, paymaster to van driver." It's such a fascinating read, you'll have a hard time putting it down. Buy it, read it, and then revisit their albums. You'll never look at the Ramones in the same light.
me so horny... me love laist a long time .....
