Love Comes To Me

Is there such a thing as lyric diagramming, as with sentences?

This song reminds me of that book, The Alchemist. Inquire within for the whole concert.

Bossa de noche: O Pato



O pato vinha cantando alegremente, quem, quem, Quando o marreco sorridente pediu para entrar também no samba, no samba, no samba,
O ganso gostou da dupla e fez também quem, quem
Olhou pro cisne e disse assim vem, vem, Que um quarteto ficará bem,
muito bom, muito bem
Na beira da lagôa a foram ensaiar para começar o tico-tico no fubá
a voz do pato era mesmo um desaca- to jogo de cena com o ganso era ma- to
mas eu gostei do final quando caíram n'água
ensaiando o vocal
quem, quem, quem, quem
quem, quem, quem, quem
quem, quem, quem, quem

RIP: Schickele Mix

Good bye old friend. I could barely deal with the fact that new episodes hadn’t been recorded since the ‘90s. Now that rebroadcasts are gone I can only hope someone out there had been ripping them much longer that I have. Anyone? Please? I’ll be sharing what I have whatever the cost.

High Line Festival 2007

This year’s High Line Festival is being curated by David Bowie. More interesting than that is Daniel Johnston’s inclusion. Ultimate outsider artist, bon vivant of the disaffected, prolific and earnest..

Here’s a clip from the Johnston documentary(recommended) The Devil And Daniel Johnston

Dear Fans

Harvey Danger’s press release concerning their new album.

Why would a band release their album for free? Their case is one of the most coherently written I’ve read.

At the risk of sounding Pollyanna-ish, making records has never been about making money for this band. If the worst thing that happens is a whole bunch of people hear Little By Little… and no one buys it, we’ll know our experiment was costly. But that won’t make it a failure.

This is by no means a manifesto. We don’t pretend to be the first band to spin a variation of the shareware distribution model. We love record labels and record stores. We buy lots of CDs and are committed to supporting independent music. We’re not a bunch of fake Marxists. We’re just trying to be smart capitalists so we can sustain our lives as musicians. This is an experiment. We’ll let you know how it goes.

Meanwhile, please enjoy the record. Everything else is secondary.

Introduced by David Byrne

A new, experimental form of folk rock has emerged in recent years—with roots in ’60s psychedelia, ’90s jam bands, electronica, and a number of world music traditions—and David Byrne introduces Carnegie Hall audiences to some of the genre’s creators.

Knows who they are

The only girl I’ve ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive
One evening, 1945

Come dance in the dark. Come to move these automotive stars. I put my hand in with dusts and blown.

The show at Webster Hall was terrific. Save me it wass attended by the hippest of the hippest of te experimental acid folk scene. Peace and luff jamz. Yes I love you. You who read these words. You who've walked the East Side from Midtown and down to the anchors. Pastrami at Katz's was rather delicious but ... as you can see I'm going for ecclectic. Tomorrow it's off to Film Forum or wherever I can find a great film. You come too. Email me, silly.

Ya, um.

Indie scare when

OH, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,
Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat;
But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth,
When two strong men stand face to face, tho' they come from the ends of the earth!
