BeatNonStop A Weblog by Chris Macias Bee pop music critic Music geek (n. myü-zik 'gEk) 1: A person who proudly wore KISS commemorative pajamas in third grade. 2: A person who owns multiple copies of the same album, still buys vinyl and has a room dedicated to 2,000 or so CDs and records. 3. A person who wrote a five-part series about traveling with a local band in their stinky van - and loved every minute of it. 4: Chris Macias, the Bee's pop music critic, serving Sacramento's music scene since 1999.

Quick hits

Did anyone forward you the story yesterday about Keith Richards snorting his father’s ashes? The Rolling Stones guitarist was quoted as saying such in New Music Express, but is now backpedaling. Rats …

How J.Lo can you go? “Como Ama Una Mujer,” the first all-Spanish album from Jennifer Lopez, debuted at a not-so blockbuster No. 10 on Billboard’s album charts. It’s the lowest chart entry for Lopez since she bonked her head and was deluded into thinking she could sing.

Brush up on that “Humpty Dance.” Digital Underground is coming to Avalon nightclub (805 15th St.), a night dubbed “Freaks of the Industry” which includes a lingerie/pajama theme and Shock G look-a-like contest. Sounds, uhm, freaky … Also be on the lookout for an Avalon show in the near future with K-Ci & JoJo. No word yet if there will be a JoJo look-a-like contest.

Go see Molotov with Los Abandoned tonight at California State University, Sacramento’s University Union Ballroom. Deal? The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20, $15 for students.
