Marnie Stern is currently touring the US and will be in Europe in Nov/Dec in support of her new self titled album. You can figure out when she is playing near you by going on the myspace: www.myspace.com/marniestern1 . This is our tour blog, we are Marnie (shredder), Nithin (bass), Vince (drums), Courtney (TM), and Fig (wonderpup). We like to talk about disgusting things and take pictures of ourselves because we feel that obviously everyone would be interested in this.

THE FLAMING LIPS SHOWS CHICAGO

THESE SHOWS WERE THE COOLEST SHOWS IN THE WORLD!!!
NO ONE PUTS ON A SHOW LIKE THE LIPS, SO WE WANTED TO THANK THEM FOR LETTING US BE A PART OF IT!

Our friend Jennie Warren came with us to the guitar clinic and one of the shows and took some of these awesome. Thanks Jennie!

Kliph left the best welcome message for the band when they arrived at the green room for the shows:
"You're Dead Bitch"

Bahahahahah!
Kliph we just had the greatest time with you, and are all so glad to have met such an awesome friend.
We were all in awe of your drumming, friendliness, and over all terrific personality.
Thanks again for being so welcoming!!

We talked to Wayne about the part of Marnie's body that she wants to freeze if she dies so it can still be used later by her boyfriend. Surprise surprise... It's her vagine!!
CRYO-VAG

Wayne let Marnie shoot some confetti out before the show. She wanted to shoot it up her VAG, but we all knew that would make for a messy soundcheck.

More Kansas City

Our friend Jess came out to our show in Kansas City, and afterwards she took us to Town Topic..an amazing late night diner. We're bummed that she can't make it to our Chicago shows..
But we wanted to thank her for hanging...it was GREAT seeing you girl!

Evan finally got over his cold, and to celebrate, he had 6 vodka drinks and took off his shirt in the parking lot

We got the low down on where to find the best local BBQ at Gates.
Evan and Vince are vegetarians,
but Marnie and Nithin tore into
some pig's ass

Country Road, Take Me Home......

Here in the M. Stern traveling circus we find we're often rolling up to the venue for our scheduled show right in the middle of a local country band's set. Seems improbable but it happens pretty much all the time. We're usually on good terms with these folks right up to the point where Marnie starts singing free-style country tunes of her own whose lyrical content are heavily focused on the anatomy of her vagina.

Kansas City

The New American Apparel Ads

God knows what these two do in the hotel room together!
Really fun show in Kansas City
last night.
Thanks everyone for coming out!

4th of July Parking Lot Sillly

Sadly we managed to scare away the entire Iowa City crowd BEFORE Nithin and Marnie's ridiculous and tremendously inaccurate impersonation of the music video for Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel."

The way you make me feel

Fire

Chicago Bubblebath

After a grueling 36 hour drive from Los Angeles to Chicago, Marn decided to go for it in Nithin's new MTV Cribs - style house.

Rub a dub

Iowa city 4th of july

Well we tried lighting a firework out of
Fig's vagina, but instead of the firework blasting into the sky, Fig shot backwards 20 feet into a huge pile of garbage. Way to jump on the grenade for America Figgy!

Fig's 5th time at this venue!
She's so relaxed, she can sleep through anything!
Marnie, on the other hand,
needs headphones to take a nap

LA LIPS Part1

LA LIPS Part2

LA LIPS Part3

Winkie Winning

Flaming Lips Soundcheck with Peaches!

Los Angeles

So everybody knows Marnie loves balls but BOY did she meet her match upon discovering the enormous reflective disco balls used by the Flaming Lips!

The Flaming Lips constructed this entire stage in order to put on the show at the Hollywood Cemetery. It was such a blast and a totally surreal experience! AND Marnie was on her best behavior and managed to not make a single vagina joke while on stage referring to the name "Flaming Lips." HUGE.

Ryan Gosling never showed up at the Intellegentsia in Silverlake. Marnie was TOTALLY bummed.

If you include all the dead people then the crowd for those first Lips shows EASILY exceeded 50 people.

Darryl from The Office, aka dude from Hot Tub Time Machine, was WAY into the show!

Billy Idol's guitarist, Steve Stevens. Somebody told me he was CC Deville from Poison. Sorry we kept calling you CC man!

2nd Hollywood show. Soundcheck.

Shred mania

Not gonna lie folks, it was a little weird for Nithin and Marn to refrain from the normal vagina dialogue/banter humiliation routine and stick to the straight rock n roll.

107 degrees in the Mojave Desert en route to Vegas! Kind of surprised Marn put her clothes back on for this pic.

Too bad we can't show you all the naked pics of Nithin partying with Vegas' finest showgirls. Stay tuned..........

Las Vegas

The Vegas show was outside by the pool at the hip new hotel on the strip called The Cosmopolitan.

Fig won ten bucks at the slot machine!

Before the show, we went to dinner with the AMAZING drummer from The Lips, Kliph Scurlock...and his smart and talented girlfriend Jess!

Drummer extraordinaire!

Our girl Courtney came with us to Vegas to help get the party started. There she is in the background causing a ruckus.

Nithin was in heaven!

These are some of the Wizard Of Oz dancers who are on stage for the whole Lips show

Talk about getting a taste of the good life! We had our own "bungalo" as a green room

Look at the crazy jumbotron screen!!
Ahahaha!!!!

You know what they say about big hands!

Thanks Jess and Kliph for being so warm and welcoming!
