Carrie Brownstein fans

For graduation I got this hot mama here.
a Rickenbacker 330 Jetglo....basicly the one Carrie Brownstein plays.









by the way, I named her Carrie.

SOME SLEATER-KINNEY ICONS FOR ALL!

PEEK.






( SPEAK UP, ONE TIMECollapse )

It seems that there is some truth to the rumors: Carrie has been writing. Here is a link to some interviews she's done with a few different people, from a magazine called The Believer. The most recent one is from this month's issue...which I guess means that she is not, as I had assumed, sitting in her basement, in her pajamas, eating cereal, and singing unspirited renditions of "Holiday". (Which is what I would be doing if I were her.)

Me and </a></b></a>threebeats thought it would be kind of cool to do this. I will be creating a paper version of Carrie. Hence, Flat Carrie. She will be set up with a scrapbook. If you get her, you will get her for approximentally two weeks, during which time, you can take pictures of her in weird places around your hometown.  In the scrapbook, you can enclose said photos. The other thing we thought of is if people wrote a little thing about how S-K[or anything else Carrie has been involved with] has affected their lives. because, after a while, we will send said scrapbook to Subpop, who will [hopefully] forward it to Carrie Brownstein herself. After the two weeks is up, you mail it to the next person on the list, until we've gone through everyone. Everyone who wants to,anyway.

If you are interested, email me with your address. [I know that I personally don't like putting my own address on the internet, so I wasn't about to ask anyone else to do it either.] I just think that this would be a pretty cool little thing to do. :)

My email is....sunflowerdotfaerieatgmail.com. You can AIM me if you want, but I'm organizing everything through my gmail, and would really,really appreciate it if you contacted me there.

Thanks!

Carrie on Boink...never heard of it

i live in portland, or and was selling some books today at powell's on hawthorne. i saw a woman that looked a lot like carrie, but she was short and really tiny so i thought it wasn't her. i was looking at books near the registers when i heard her say to the cashier, "yeah, the show was great. a really good send-off." at that point i had to say something so i went up to her and introduced myself. i told her how much i loved their last show and what a huge fan i was. she smiled sweetly and said thanks. i wanted to talk to her longer but she looked like she was in a bit of a hurry. she paid for her things and said a polite goodbye to me and the cashier. she was very approachable and sweet. eep! now my crush on her is 348324 times bigger.

Anyone know where I can get Carrie Brownsiten icons? and I heard that her and Corrin Tcuker use to be lovers? Anyone know anything about that? and also what other bands is Carrie in? (besides Sleater-Kinney and Excuse 17)

i also posted this in the sk list so sorry if you get it 2ce but i took some little videos of the band last night at webster hall. okay, by the band i really mean "carrie jumping around a lot", but janet and corin are in them too. email me if you want 'em.
feeling sad. i miss them already. and planning my sk tattoo.

Hey guys! I have yet another S-K related project in order to help us work through our pain. Here's the basic idea: It's like a totally brilliant plan!

Like it says in the original post, the point of this zine about the final shows is to capture the S-K concert experience from ticket purchase to morning after hangover, and especially the capture the experience of the S-K fan community. This is why I would love it if you guys would photograph yourselves getting ready for the big shows, on your way to the shows, at the shows, on the way back home, etc. And don't forget to include a few paragraphs about the experience. Then either post about it at the sktothemax community, or send it to me somehow (soundoftheatlantic at gmail dot com; myspace dot com slash la_hija_justiciera).

Thank you so much in advance for your interest and participation! Can't wait to see and read about everyone's experiences!
