Dash Snow & Jade Berreau by Ryan McGinley This is a little response to Fool’s link to John Steinbeck’s letter to his son Thom on love.  Some excerpts. “There are several kinds of love. One is a selfish, mean, grasping, egotistical thing which uses love for self-importance. This is the ugly and crippling kind. The other is an outpouring of everything good in you—of...

Wye Oak - Strangers (orig. The Kinks) One of the best shows I’ve ever been to, one of my favorite songs from the show, the guitar solo somehow made my now-healing burnt arm hurt. All the things I own I will share with you, and if I feel tomorrow like I feel today, we’ll take what we want and give the rest away. Strangers on this road we are all, But we are not two we are one.

Alex Clare - Damn Your Eyes by Alex Clare Really great cover; Alex Clare is, for me in general, an extremely hit or miss artist.  Either I turn it off after 5 seconds with my eyes screwed shut, or play it 35 times in a row.  No dl link with this one, impossible to find a hosted active link, but enjoy the song.

Gauntlet Hair “Keep Time” by DOJAGSC Hah!  Who has to wait for tomorrow!  Here’s that more ‘out there’ song I was talking about.  I think a Gauntlet Hair show would be one of the most fun things I could do.  It’s on the list.  Yelps and echoes, deliciously textured, indefinable emotionally; feels like being pulled towards something, but it’s behind...

Many, many thanks to Justin Turkus for his beautiful work on my arm—we had a great time and it looks rad. It reads, in a more flowery and dramatic translation of which there are many “These are the binding threads of the scattered sheaves of the world.” The full poem was translated by a friend as, “Let the ascetics sing of the garden of Paradise — We who...
