am i the only one lurking out here old enough to remember a cool and funny, sad but true song called something like, pegged in the head with a lawn dart, by the incomparable ed’s redeeming qualities. got it on wicked old cassette tape, however i cannot manage to find it on cd or vinyl anywhere, at least not the stuff by them that i want. btw lawn darts is a superior (your skin color here) trash sport but like ANY trash sport, always more fun to play than to get killed just watching… but shit you gotta be at my parents annual 4th of july party if you wanna see the REAL THANG!
cuz ya cain’t buy ’em anymore folks…too hard, this will take forever:
where is my mind, i guess.
vamos, fer sure.
subbacultcha, most likely.
la la love you, or no. 13 baby,
but ya see, i am easy, i get riled listening to any pixies. anytime.did i forget to mention levitate me? this is why i can’t play these games real good. even turned a few folks onto ’em. hence the following ramble…
my nephew saw frank black in a teeny tiny intimate little club in vermont a couple years back and the pussy(my nephew not FB) did not even dare to say hullo, he had several easy opportunities over the course of the evening. i thought i taught him better than that, alas this seems to confirm the silly old adage. do you know the one saying the apple does not fall far from the tree? yea i too admit trepidation at approaching someone i admire, regardless of the extenuating circumstances, but ain’t it just proper to say hullo or thank you anymore? mebbe people are just kinder through the looking glass, darkly.allison,
t’anks ever so, i missed that thread somehow or other and i went totally cuckoo cuckoo on thursday when i discovered J was gonna play in my home state of ME, will it be acoustic? will he have a band? i DO NOT CARE. happy i am, this summer is shaping up nicely…
i really do get by with a little help from my friends… heck yes, just purchased my ticket online at the skinny in pot-land, anyone need a backyard to sleep in that night? i can promise a good time will be had by all!
Thanks again Allison,
sarsyhey salam, so you are saying you prefer the earlier genesis with p. gabriel to the later p. collins experience? cuz me too!!! or were you bein’ facetious? in that case i blush and also reveal more of my LAMENESS by admitting i listened to steve miller(the one w/ fly like an eagle on it) yesterday and it ruled!

ha ha hullo, can anyone please tell me where J will be playing (specific venue necessary, please!) in portland, Maine, On july 27, i think??? i am so thrilled to see him perform again, first with a real band in atlanta for the 4th fest (getting my transport finalized this week for the journey south to see sludgie) and then to see j once more in my old stompin’ grounds back in the state of maine (oh J please do not be booked at the freakin’ civic center ppplease!) i gotta get tix immediately and make plans to crash w/ my brother in his little bit of heaven in the middle of the biggest most culturally advanced city in vacationland(ain’t sayin ‘ much as it’s a mere village with a baked bean factory plunked on the edge of the ocean, really)…someone, anyone ask J if he needs a place to stay in portland? there is room in my tent. all men, boys, or dogs welcome!!!
nope, evil malkie i refuse to buy maladroit… i fear i will hate it and that happens too often.
today in my stereo but NOT necessarily in order:
pure funk compilation
cypress hill III temple of boom
beatles yellow submarine
come recline with black velvet flag
jack drag unisex headwave
and as i write i listen to my new purchase of the day
johnny cash mercury recordings
i ordered 2 cd’s today, went swimmin’ and i can pick up my guitar at the guitar dr after missing her for 2 WEEKS consequently i am numb with the unnatural combination of positive events occurring latelydear ash,
thanks. i feel i know you well even with oceans and continents between us.
i admire your courage and the strength it takes to reveal yourself, i am a coward and cannot let anyone read my poesy. thank you for finding this place, it is a freakscene, feels like home, don’t it?
your freaky friend sassy- ‘member the womb, did we meet there or somethin’?rosa,
wowowow, thanks i grok completely as i prefer going to shows alone too (do not want to be responsible anymore for someone else’s good time) even if it requires taking the train into the city(your city here) and then getting stranded w/no way home, it happened the wintry night i saw j perform at tt the bears in cambridge, cuz he went on soooo late i missed the last train. nevertheless it was my choice to stay, it was an adventure, and i made it home eventually, cold and hungry but with stars in my eyes and rather blissful despite the bitter weather.
i know NOW i could have posted my review of that show but had only lurked here up until recently so thanks rosa thanks you rockthis mornin at home?
veruca salt -american thighs
desperado -the soundtrack wakes me up, stirs me up
cypress hill – unreleased and revamped
also learnin’ and listenin’ to specifis tracks like neil young-harvest moon, kristin hersh-gazebo tree, my FAVE at this momentb is i’d love the change the world by ten years gone… as a novice i still have to work WAY hard to learn to sing WHILE i play, my complex wittle brain aches.
in the betty mobile on tape i got bob marley,
i got j mascis, i got weezer(not the new one, the blue one and the green one and pinkerton.
oh i just ordered the jicks new cd to prepare for the 4th of july in atlanta and blood sugar sex magic to learn some stuff off that too.
looks like i might get to swim today! when is high tide?don’t think i am truly prepared for this pissing contest, i still squat when i pee…
gorgeous ovation folk balladeer
marginal ovation celebrity
takamini something
one ugly fretless bass
loverly seagull folk acoustic
a gremlin, not the car the guitar
wicked old banjo my nana played in the 20’s
just learnin’ classical cello(really it is my house-mate’s)
penny whistle, kazoo, tambourine, cow bell and ancient bongos… there is a bit more but my wish list is thus:
any rickenbocker any condition
mandolin(potential b-day gift this year)
and eventually i’s gonna get me a 12 string, dunno have not met her yet…
oh mebbe a manjo too
and someday a drum kit, cuz i have not played drums since like i dunno 6th grade or somethin’
by the way i also collect old books and my drug of choice is music so to keep that monkey satisfied i spend way too much time and $$ at the local record shop, that and the guy who owns the shop is soooo groovy. i pine. i want. i wait.i too just passed the one year mark here, and i feel wicked lucky i found a place, this place, where i feel comfy being myself, lurking and sometimes connecting with the other freaks out there.
i am planning on heading down south from new england to attend the july 4th fest in atlanta. i reckon this is one show i do not want to miss and the fireworks should be ok too. i really wanna see malkmus and the jicks as i NEVER got the chance to see pavement, not ever. oh and to see J with a band will rock, fer sure. but i do not get the feeling it will be as intimate and up close as his show at t.t.’s in cambridge a while ago. bother… nevertheless i intend to deal with the heat and humidity and possible pugilistic rednecks with aplomb and mebbe some help from deepsludge or slush as the case may be?
she is lovely, dude, i drool…fuck the keyboard…
my thought on nick drake’s death is: he was depressed, clearly, and of course he considered suicide but when he was on the anti-depressants he would have the energy to commit the act, who knows… it is just fuckin’ sad…
