Out on the town

Last night a went to an event in LA, Hollywood to be exact. While the show I went to was great, just being out on the town and not at home was a nice departure.

How can you really tell you are in Hollywood? Not just the address you are at. The graffiti in the ladies room was people's my space accounts and websites for the launch of their albums. Who said advertising is dead?

That waitress was happy about the event next door, since all the ladies dress up nicely. That is really something since around that area I would figure people should "put on the dog", as a matter of course.

Also the industry types are there. Not the creative types that dress well. The ones that think they are creative but are really the agents or others that help the creative types. You can tell by the clothes they wear. True fans of this artist dress in sync with the artist. Lady Ga Ga fans line up in drag or glam rocker out-fits, or even their own version of her video looks. For this crowd retro glam and rockabilly girls are the looks to have.

The industry types worn sports coats and men's neck scarfs, with Beret's. That would be better suited for a reading at the LA Public Library. Its and artsy look for the literary crowd. For this show it was all wrong, as was the home-made gold lame turban sported in that same area.

Now I am off to a book signing. I don't have to dress up for that since it will be the college kids that don't have any money and dress in Old Navy and back packs. I could be wrong. Out on the town again.
