let the bikinis lay

there's a dumb discussion (as they all are) on a web board that i lurk on about reunions and who you'd like to see and someone offered up bikini kill.

i don't think i'd like to see that. with the two post-BK incarnations of k.hanna (les tig and the more over-looked julie ruin) i just think it would feel so weird. i don't know that anything in that tiny period of music should attempt to be reproduced. not that it wasn't good, it just feels so dated now.
like, hey girls! let's play music! let's pick up our boyfriend's guitars and make some noise!
at the time (and it could also be a product of being in college) it was great and empowering and fuck yeah! why aren't we doing this?
but it also gave rise to that alanis morisette junk.
i mostly don't want to see it repeated because it shouldn't feel like a lipstick-scrawling spectacle that women are playing music. it should be natural and pervasive and accepted.
we're not going out to dinner tonight. too many conflicts. which i'm ok with. i worked until 8 last night at was at the gym at 7 this morning and i'm beat.
plus last night i had a crafty bastards nightmare about not having enough stuff.
