The Flood, the Faint, the Faithless and the Friends

04-18-2007

Flood
so i've been fighting a shitload of flooding in my basement. this is typical about once a year, but finally my landfolk are addressing it and installing a pump. my life's artwork from 1998-2000 is toast. not from this most recent flood but i've not wanted to confirm it for years. so sad. such great memories creating them.

i need to take pix of how ridiculous my collecting is as i've had to clean out the basement t accommodate the construction to come.

Faint
rediscovered my shelved fav band, sad that i will miss them in May in NYC. i needed to step away from them and rediscovered their sheer joy in the paranoidattack vid from their site.

Faithless
speaking of bands in NYC, next week i travel there to see Faithless and finally make peace with that restless part of my soul yearning to see them. Maxi and Sister Bliss… i humbly am honored.

Friends
and finally speaking of NYC and bands and all, i see Eric on a momentous showing at the knitting factory. i also hope to see one friend —finally— in the city too. i'm very excited about that.

and i also miss three friends greatly: all women of course and my thoughts and heart are with them daily, hourly and some, minutely.

and Zöe, your brother will arrive into this world bringing tremendous joy and adding to a wonderful family.

end of line

response:
"Landfolk" that's a good one! So sad about the lost works but it ups the value of the rest of your oevre, don't you think? Collecting pics are definitely in order, I'm curious to see what you been stacking up down there in yer basement.

As for the Faint, you mentioned 'em recently in a thread, which has them already on my "must check out" list... I feel like a troglodyte who's never heard of *anything* fresh and exciting and not (yet?) mainstreamy....

Faithless: so funny, when they came to Sofia it was the last thing that EVA woulda X'ed my mind to go see an electronic act perform live. And now, here I am checkin the ticketweb site thingy... o irony!

NYC, I'm-a be there, so I'm hoping to cash in a drink ticky too! what is it with you and women anyways, I've seen pics and you are obviously a manly beast of a man, and yet you are smart and fun and kickass cool and sweet and witty enough to hang with the laydeez. Waddup widdat?
