finished Bing! last night, in spite of myself and have to say this is prolly the first piece i've ever written that is truly not really even about the subject, but more totally focused on the representation of the subject in history. bing! is an interesting fellow, but covered in every way so i had to get creative. we'll see what the sound collectors think of it.
just bought the cee-lo album from the local friendly indie record shop - they look at me equally strange when i ask, ' do you have the new cee lo? how about deathprod, on the norwegian rune grammofon label? no, hmm...well, do you have the new luomo? no, but he just played in boston last night. Oh, okay...fine, I guess I did want this new Olivia Tremor Control reissue.'

If you haven't read this ridiculous MBV article, then you must not be trying too hard. Oh, I was listening to Pagoda, btw, which is a project with my dear friend Scott from Shortstack's lead guitarist, Adrian, and it is some lovely dream pop crafting. I would like it even if I didn't think Adrian was a genius, a haunted spirit and an all around swell guy (in spite of the fact that there are fleas living in his couch).
