The Streets
+ Dizzee Rascal
Irving Plaza
Hip-hop is dying of unorigniality. Jay-Z is jamming with Phish and his Black Album has been mashed-up with everything short of Soul Asylum's Grave Dancer's Union. But there's a truly unique voice coming straight outta the UK, who's breathing some new life into this fading genre. And that voice belongs to nun udder than Mike Skinner of The Streets. The dude basically talks about eating KFC and "birds, not bitches" over some of the illest na-na beats you ever did hear. Sorta like a cross between a stoned Henry Rollins and a less jaxxy Basement Jaxx. Now Mr Skinner's music isn't eggzactly for everyone, but then again, neither is munching on grundle-reeking foie gras.
Me and the Newbs were royally treated to a non-stop throw ya fingaz in the air-a-thon. As we both remarked, probably one of the most unrelievable hip-hop shows wees ever did peep. Mikey Skins brought along a bassist, a DJ, a drummer, and his umcredible backing vocalist, and it truly made all the difference. Every song they pounded out sounded even better than they do on the records... which is usually quite the opposite for live hip-hop shows. There were no "rhubarb and custard verses" to be found at last night's sha-blam-a-zam-zam. Highlights included the weepy "Dry Your Eyes", rolling "Fit But You Don't Know It", intense "Turn The Page", and o course, the bouncy "Lets Push Things Forward." How apt a song for a guy who's eggzactly doing that. Hip-hop has 99 problems, but The Streets aint one.

- What's the biggest waste of money since Playskool's My Buddy? My Pet Fat. This is quite possibly the wurst weight-loss idea ever. I mean, why not just inhale bacon, shower in mayo, and watch the lbs disappear.
- Me peeped Ladysmith Black Mambazo's show at the World Financial Center Plaza last night. Money spot was when they rocked "Homeless", off of Paul Simon's Graceland. If I were dead loaded, I would hire them to sing in my office all day long. Sh%t be relaxing like the Joy of Painting with Bob Ross.
- Welcome to Lohan Planet. Today's topics are: Dooney & Bourke (whoever the scrooge they are) have chosen Ms LL as the new face for their product AND daddy Lohan doesn't pay his hotel billz. Pee es- can Friday's b-day celebration come any sooner?

- Meet my wife, Ye Olde 96er: 6 pounds of beef, one large onion, two whole tomatoes, a half a head of lettuce, 1 1/4 pounds of cheese, top and bottom buns, and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, banana peppers and some pickles. Just "some" pickles. What's up wit dat?
Qwik note: a lot of past postings will have pictures missing. Daddy Thigh Master is aware and working on it like a box of Popeye's fried chicken. Thanks for your pay-shence.

Look folks, I'm all for anyone who isn't GWBusch, but I may have to change my mind about Johnnie Kerry after the announced line-up for the benefit concert in his honor (July 8 @ Radio City): The Dave Matthews Band? Mary J. Blige? Jon Bon Jovi? Wyclef Jean? John Mellencamp? Sarah Jessica Parker? Whoopi Goldberg? and Chevy Chase? What is this s%, Comic Relief 2004? Why stop there when they can rope in Yakov Smirnoff, El DeBarge, and Howie Mandel!! I mean, all the hipsters are going to vote for you anywayz Kerry, but may I suggest this as your line-up to guarantee you at least my vote: Franz Ferdinand, the Gorillaz, Lindsay Lohan, Jude Law, Air, Natalie Portman, Amy Sedaris, Ali G, Ludivine Sagnier, the White Stripes, Monica Bellucci and her twin pals.

How does Little Steven's International Underground Garage Festival starring Iggy Pop & The Stooges, The Strokes, The New York Dolls, Bo Diddley, The Raveonettes, The Mooney Suzuki, and many more for only one Andrew Jackson sound to you'alls?

- And finally, we can rest assure as Lawmakers Loosen Potluck Dinner Rules.
1. Fahrenheit 9/11 – $21.8 (NEW) - I hate to say this, but F-9/11 is about as slanted and propagandanistical as Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will. Read our review here.
2. White Chicks – $19.6 million ($27.1 million) - "Worst movie of the year! You[Ebert] are so right. The make-up is just hideous. It doesn't work on any level whatsoever!! When they did the make-up, they should have gone on they set and said, 'Well guess what everybody, go home, we don't have a movie!'" - Richard Roeper.
3. Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story - $18.5 million ($67.2 million) - What's a cooler name, Rip Torn or his real name, Elmore Rual Torn?

5. The Notebook – $13 million (NEW) - I'm still holding out for Trapper Keeper: The Movie
6. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - $11.4 million ($211.7 million) - Which Hogwarts student sorta looks like a cross between Patrick Fugit, Ben Kweller, and good ole Danny Cooksey? None other than me homeboy, Ron-boy, Rupert Grint. Btw, filming has begun on Potter 4 .

8. Garfield: The Movie - $7 million ($55.8 million) - Breckin Meyer's last three films leading up to this mastershit: Roberto Benigni's Pinocchio, Kate & Leopold, and Rat Race. He makes Jake Busey look like Laurence Olivier.

10. The Stepford Wives - $5.2 million ($49 million) - Frank Oz is a true renaissance man of movies. He co-starred in Spies Like Us, wrote The Muppets Take Manhattan, and directed Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.
Tit was quite a weak end folks. Me hit up a screening of Fahrenheit 9/11, chilled with my Hotlanta/UK boy JK (who once dated Kate Beckinsale in like 5th grade), went to the Mets blowout of the Yanks on Saturdaze with me cousins, got stuck an N train right outside of the tunnel to Queens for 45 minutes, smacked up some sausage and Pilsner Urquell at what is sure to be a Blogga Paradise: The Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden, paid some long overdue hugs and misses to my Chi-town gal Randall, bid adieu to my Australian-bound compradre Scott-tay Teen Wolf, celebrated my gal Katty Kat's 21st, and peeped yet again, another stellar installment of Six Feet Under.

Folks and folkettes, Thighs Wide Shut is changing for the butter. I soon hope to lose the blogspot in the url, eat lots of fried chicken, and maybe eat some more fried chicken. Anywhozitz, you can now search the entire Thighs Wide world from this very site!! Just scroll to the very last post on this page and you will find this:
Plain and simple, this is a muss C moovie. But it's really not that plain and/or simple. I didn't find it that amazing and it wasn't even the best Michael Moore documentary I've seen... that title belongs to Bowling For Columbine. So why is it a muss C? Cause everyone sez it is and who wants to be left out of the conversation, eh? Don't get me wrong, it raises numerous valid questions about the policy and actions of Premier Bush and his staff, but I think Moore went a lil too overboard with his biased propaganda. If you want get a point across, don't you have to explore both sides of the story?
And yeah, it's an important film for this election year, but it surely isn't timeless. If Bush wins in November, Moore and his opinion lose. And if Bush doesn't, was it Moore's doing or just the fact that people are sick and tired of the Bushman in the first place? Either way, in years to come, all the hype and hubb-bubb will die down and Michael Moore will take his muckraking to someone else's backyard. I mean, if Moore made a doc about any president, say Rutherford B. Hayes, he could make him look worse than Hitler sans watermelon.
F-9/11 is basically a liberal movie made purely for liberals. At the screening I took in, the very democratic NYC crowd applauded at every chance possible. It's really hard to get your point across when yer preaching to the choir, eh? But what about those voters/viewers who are on the fence? Well, they probably won't dislike Bush any more than they did before, but then again, they don't really want to vote for J Kerry either. And what about the conservative Bush supporters? They'll just dismiss it as a bunch of liberal soapboxing, which is basically is. Personally, I think Howard Stern and his censorship ordeals with the FCC have bigger impact on the election, than F-9/11.
However, I still urge you to go and see this slanted, yet honest documentary and form your own damn opinion. I mean, who's not going be entertained by 2 hours filled with Bushisms, him goofing off, and looking like an idiot, right? And besides Napoleon Dynamite, there really isn't anything that umcredible out in the theaters right now. But if you really want to see a jarring documentary that explores the political problems of yesterday and today, then look no further than last year's worthy Oscar winner, Errol Morris' masterpiece The Fog of War. Now let me get off my soapbox.
- What day is more precious to Americans than July 4th, Independence Day? July 2nd, aka the day Ms. Lindsay Lohan-Thighmaster turns a ripe 18!!!! FINALLY, I no longer have to be compared with the likes of Pee-Wee Herman or Jeffrey Jones!! And why don't you just shut up San Francisco Chronicle reporter Peter Hartlaub. We all know you can't wait for Kim Possible to turn legal.
