Yes, I'm talking about the meatheads who take off their shirts and jump in the mosh pit with fists flailing. Now I'm not saying that getting a little excited at a great rock 'n' roll show is bad. I even advocate participating in a mosh/slam/thrash pit whenever possible, but what I don't appreciate are people who come to a show looking for a fight. Why do people have to go and see a music performance to get i~ a mood for a fight? Why don't you guys all ju,st go down to an empty parking lot and whoever looks at you cross-eyed gets bent down? I mean there are more than one group of pit brawlers in this town, they could nil meet somewhere to fight. It wouldn't be that hard. But no, they all have to come to shows where my favorite bands are playing and punch some kid for.no reason. These people seem to come in groups and their victim is usually a l~ner who is smaller Photo illustration by Sachlko Takahashi and Kate Love than any member of the group Makeup supervisor Alexis Jensen applies various colors of cream makeup to create the appearance of a bruise on actress Ginger Hanner's forehead for a performance. just so this ritual of testosterone 'is assured of a happy ending for ~: 1 . the, antagonist. l'; .

Tom Green wrote, directed and stars in "Freddy Got Fingered," and his signature brand of comedy is slathered all over this mm. Green plays Gord Brody, a 28-year old slacker who finally leaves home (to his parents elation) to attempt to become a professional animator, only to return home disappointed. Instantly the antics begin in that strange unexplainable Tom Green way. Gord just docs weird (uncomfortably weird) stuff without much rhyme or reason. If you have never before seen, or wanted to sec, someone fondle animal genitalia (horse and elephant respectively), then you might be in for a shock, to say the least. The story line of Gord wanting to be a professional animator docs seem to make perfect sense. Gord is a child in a semi adult's body, and drawing cartoons fits the character perfectly. Gord goes to Los Angeles to try to sell his work by breaking into the office of an animation executive (Anthony Michael Hall).
