The New Von Dutch

I brought in the New Year with a bang. Quite literally. A nice bang on the forehead from a drunk girl who asked me to play sexyback three times during the course of the evening, each of those times more belligerent than the previous, until she decided the only way to make the record magically appear in my record bag would be to throw her cocktail glass at my forehead. I think it was an apropos welcome to the new year.

2007 is not going to be a mellow year for me. I’m getting married in October and it comes with all the sort of madness one hears about. One of the interesting things about getting married is being tasked with ranking and prioritizing your friends. I gather I’m about two degrees away from nearly every resident of San Francisco, so naturally I’d like to invite them all to the wedding. But not at a cost of $250 per person (though seriously, how cool would it be to bring everyone from SF to Austin!). So I’m learning about A lists and B lists. This is funny to me because I do background music for the MTV show My Super Sweet 16, and it’s strange to be going through the list making process just like those spoiled boys and girls on the show. At least I won’t be as standoffish about the whole thing..

I won’t make everyone in San Francisco gather in Union Square as I arrive wearing a shiny tuxedo and top hat in a Hummer limo with a basket of boa feather covered envelopes containing coveted invitation to my super sweet wedding.

But how sweet would it be if I did?
