There’s a studio in my nabe but I have never been because I hate heat, normally — I’m going to try to BE ONE WITH THE RISING TEMPERATURE while I follow along to poses I don’t know. Will have to try for the 8pm class. What are the odds that I will leave the house again after I get home?

115:1

i place those odds at 5:1

namaste laurel tell me how it goes

^^^^ UH SO GAY

GUYS I AM GOING FLY FISHING THIS WEEKEND

which is manly unlike that homo stuff 69 is talking about

awesome

yoga man roll call

i am going to drink this weekend

4 hours and 59 minutes until i am sucking suds at club foot.

69 you awesome don’t listen to the drunken haters

i have never done yoga and don’t really think it’s in the cards for me any time soon

did you know that you can drink beers and fly fish at the same time????

smokin yoga would be so chill

and yet you post pastel pics of nic cage. you are complex!

xpost

i’ve done smokin yoga

it’s actually really fun

you can smoke and drink while you post pictures on the internet, that’s really all there is to my decision-making process

fly fishing is awesome—where are you going? somewhere in montana i would imagine? i have always wanted to hit that shit.

did tom go in WV

here!

or somewhere like it.

the gallatin river, probably, unless we head up the paradise valley

oh man paradise valley

big sky looked down on awl the peeple

that spot is 20 min from my house btw

where’s dan perry, i’m about to make one of his jokes

i have to work at big sky on saturday, tho

also close to my house!

guys do i quit working to pack y/n

wait a minute i’m retarded for being here on the stupid computer

xp y

that’s where my folks went on their honeymoon (gallatin), i think? THEY TOOK MY GRANDFATHER, SO HE COULD GO FISHING WITH MY DAD EVERY DAY.

that’s, uh, romantic

questionable priorities: a R1ch4rds0n family history

fishing is serious business

So is divorce.

yeah, way to get HEAVY Laurel, sheesh

mellow: harshed

solution: more coffee

damn, i’d kill a man for a cup of coffee right now.

i read like half of our band could be your life yesterday and feel like a sucker for not being more rock and roll IN MY LIFE.

i’m not sure they let you be in rock bands in medical school

aw sure they do

alex beat me to it

In between lab and rounds. (XP)

i read that on a beach on kona coast of the big island with sea turtles coming out of the ocean to sun themselves and waiters bringing me comp’d tanqueray and tonics. it was heaven.

great book though. minutemen stuff was inspiring. dinosaur stuff made me think of junior high kids stuffed in a van and going on tour.

xpost.

So DC is like the thread for the people left on the internets who aren’t crazy?

i thought most of the book was inspiring.

the dinosaur stuff made me realize what a fucking dick j mascis is

well, we just restrict our crazy to off-line behavior

oh YEAH HIGH FIVES BRO

dc handles its scandal in private xpost

off-line, for REAL

yeah a fucking dick (mascis) in a band with a fucking baby (barlow) and a fucking jock (murph). recipe for DISASTAH.

chicago has no scandals to handle.

saw j mascis in seattle airport once few years back holding hands with a girl that looked about 12.

jaymc hating blues music is pretty scandalous

j mascis looks like ben franklin and crystal gayle had a kid and that kid learned to play guitar from jimi hendrix.

no, that’s about par for the course gbx.

meanwhile the buttholes sounded like the most terrifying band on the planet

TA-DAA!

oh i know.

“why would I...etc”

Ed: YES

PS, I am temporarily back but work is being crazy today, make the me joke if the moment hasn’t passed (;_;)

xp hahah

xxxxpxppxpxp

yeah the buttholes chapter is about sixty times more entertaining than any buttholes record, cept maaaaaaaaaybe for psychic, powerless...

i do love that “cherub,” that is a classy song right there

and their chapter is kinda SO BORING too

it was just going to be a vagina joke, it’s cool dan

i need to get better at this guitar, so i can retake my place in $BAND when i get back to chicago

river wolf is steve albini

The bands original line up consisted of Dr. Morton Fairbanks on guitar/vocals, Dr. Jack Putnam drums/vocals and Michelle Hayes bass/vocals. Michelle Hayes was, according to Dr. Fairbanks in an old interview on thecountymedicalexaminers.com, first exposed to the band when she toured a morgue, where Dr. Fairbanks worked, as part of her probation due to a DUI charge.

outed

we can start a new one gbx. although i gave away my jaguar 10 days ago. and i’ll be pawning my amp soon enough. and then i’ll in all liklihood sell the danelectro and my practice amp.

i do have access to a drum kit.

dude pete i am sorry, but alex chilton + danish folks + ravening gibby + “you can’t hit me! it’s against my religion!” = one of the most awesome parts of the entire book

ZR 8080 — that part is sorta hilarious.

kev — i just started to ‘learn’ how to ‘play’ lap steel about a month ago. i’m terrible, but it’s fun making loud noises!

Ok, so this town is a ghost town. Anyone here want chatting up?

I’m the one in the corner reading the novel about a psychic and her assistant.

i am leaving this coffee shop in 15 minutes

i am leaving this office now

that’s ok i’ve “never” played “drums” before either. it’s my upstairs neighbor’s kit and she is now about 7 or 8 months pregnant and she’s been trying to convince me to set up the kit in my dining room for about 4 months now.

xpost.

i can “play” the drums, and i will “fly” to chicago for “practice”

we could answer the musical question “what happens when you give two addled individuals powerful instruments and little instruction then put them on a stage with a p.a.?”

ok, i’m back to playing spoons then.

i should really get off the computer and get ready to board a train

you get awesometown is what you get kevin

You get every punk and post-punk act ever? XXP

also can be the bassist? i can’t “play” the “bass” so i think it’ll work

I will sing vocals thru a cell phone for you guys!

great. only if we can call the band Zegema Beach

because i have been wanting to name a band that forever and if you guys steal it i’m killing you

I wd “play” keyboards for you, but I actually play keyboards! I don’t think that’s allowed!

man the last time we started a band on this thread it all ended kinda acrimoniously

that name sucks, dude

xpost

Laurel strangely OTM

it’s our own fault for being dinosaur jr i guess

ok, laurel get spoons, i’ll sit at the bar and drink while you guys play. WINNER = ME.

:(

sorry dude truth hurts

maybe you should start a solo act called jerkface

actually, every band needs one person who has at least a passing familiarity to their given instrument. i propose we pick up a cheesy farfisa for laurel to lay down some spirit of ’66 keyboard skronk.
