no stars for endurance

nope. ;)

cruising along fall is, just cruising. i'm sorry, anyone? september? ideas where it went or if it was ever here?

meanwhile, music, planning, ice chips very much, and smoothies. also, baked potato.

frankly, there are plans that are more than that: we're shooting some footage for a couple songs later in the fall, super excited about that, and um-finally? tour dates have been ridiculous delayed but that's only cuz it's been a weird year and ive hadda do a bunch of stuff i hadda do so there. but soon! cant wait.

meantime also, juliet settling into her new place, getting chilly up there i hear, and down here, getting cool. about. nearly. i could run for a full hour and not die of heat stroke now, let's put it that way. i could drink only three gallons of water a day and not pass out from dehydration, another. so.

anybody got ideas about japan? we are talking about music in japan, i keep hearing music in japan, music in japan--what are they up to? i wanna know! two fabulous buskers from ol' harvard square have hit some fun times all over, dresden doll's amanda used to play dress up and be a bride statue across from The Yard a hundred years ago, and martin sexton played every stop around the city i think but the Square was His. badass, buskers. they know a thing or two. careful who you run across and dont forget to tip! i think mike doughty still hits the subway on occasion to mixitupalot now that he's a disco-master ;)

anywho, time for.... carrots and hummus and a movie-- tomorrow's long and then: dancin. hmmhunh, dancin.

liberty ave @ liberty way

great intersection.

well, the rains have quieted a little down in the deep-a south. gulf south, that is. thnk gd. i was turning into a plant.

the sounds of a repeat on a take of a particular guitar lick over and over is an old form of torture used on prisoners of war in the last century, after recording was invented. (not looking up when recording was invented.) some of us crazies do it to ourselves, it's called working on a record. a music project. whatever, haters, we are what we are.

slowly a form comes into view out of a fog- that's what some takes are, a form coming out of a fog.

like this year.

my man

eiji oue conducting the osaka philharmonic orchestra.

what's his god? who's his nation? affiliations? memberships? status? zodiac sign? who the fuck cares.

total triumph of the human spirit. i love this man completely.


(ps tho, i think holst failed to resolve jupiter, as if anybody could: at about the 5th minute, he fails to resolve, but where do you go?? i want to hear the music of what happens really, after the 5th minute of this movement...)

black madonna

it's nine-nine-oh-nine, ain't it? ;)

juliet met the madonna on the c or the q train today. nice day.

she still thinks about her.

what a day. mercury is a bastard, i hate him. ok, i dont hate him but he is a bastard.

missed all kindsa calls, sorry, peoples.

but i did see: cranes, small little guys, too white. and little funny seaside birds also so peculiar to the sea. and i saw alice float which she doesnt ordinarily like to do. i dont know nuthin about nuthin but that seems like it'll do for today.

oh, and, shows are going great, the record's selling like a bastard and i have no complaints about the cushy new villa i just acquired in seville. all in all, no complaints ;)
