ellipsis…

hey all. just want to let all you music luv’n edmontonians know that the easy life club will be debuting their first ever album on Thursday, Oct 27 at the SideTrack Cafe, it starts around 8. easy life club, aka glenroy, is a good friend of mine, and a super great guy, which is really all the persuasion you need to come out. The Polys from Vancouver, and OnlyForward from Montreal, are playing as well. it should be a good nite of local indi-rock. if you want more information you can visit Shameless Records Canada, or The Side Track Cafe.

ok…. so the world now has a new class of male; the ubersexual male. i don’t know who keeps trying to classify us guys, but it’s obviously getting some sort of attention. i’m guessing that writers, columnists, socialogists, can’t figure out what to call the seemingly “new” breed of guys who are stylish, like manicures, are cultured, and so on. which is why the whole metrosexual term came about (a little side note, the term was actually coined by a gay writer who used it to describe certain gay men). and now the world has adopted ubersexual, the more manly side of mextrosexual (or atleast that’s what they tell me). they say that bono is the perfect ubersexual male; stylish, good looking, but you would never question his sexual orientation. has anyone questioned my sexual orientation….

metrosexual. ubersexual. the terms really don’t have anything to do with sex at all. they’re not like other terms that pertain to sexual orientation. they are purily to stereotype. it’s not like we have metrosexual or ubersexual females, just guys. and what’s with the “uber” part of the term, what are we 5 and can’t come up with something more creative. i think that we’re trying to hard as a society to classify. why the need to bring out another catagory.

i think i’m pretty stylish. if i could afford to go to a day spa regulary i would. i enjoy shopping probably more than the average female. i like wines, and throwing dinner parties, and art galleries. i’m also attracted to women. i like hockey, and cars (eventhough i drive an asianed-up civic), and i have toys. so does that make me an ubersexual, or a metrosexual, or neither. maybe i should come up with my own term. though making up my own term would really go against what i’m trying to say. do we really need another term? one’s enough. acutally one is already to many.
