So Chemical Angel is taking a hiatus... the "ego" has a new job and works nights... and can't get time off for te upcoming calendar. So we're cancelling a few gigs, and turning down one we both really wanted to play.

Shrug... the "ego" is to be commended for his responsibility. Less reasonable people would call in sick... I support people making sure they can pay their bills. Cheers, "ego"... we'll bring it back together in the fall.

incidentally, go here, http://www.mixposure.com/song.php?songid=9251 if you'd like to hear my favorite song we've got in the catalog right now.

Ever feel like you're leaning over an edge? I've been feeling a little emotional vertigo lately. like the ground of experience is rushing up at me... not completely unpleasant, but the rabbit is inclined to leap and run... "i hate's that wabbit"...

I've recently concluded that speach is ugly. It sends rough little translations of what the ego is thinking. And, well, the ego's the true "child of Omelas"... and that's not pretty. And nothing it thinks is worthwhile. If a thought arises, it is intended to distract. If an idea is had, it's goal is turn the mind away from awareness.

sigh

got a great idea for a burning man camp. I'm going to make an attempt at organizing something for 2006... The idea is to start now, so that planning doesn't crunch com June next year. It will require money, time and commitment... I want to build a "speakeasy"... with a secret password, free "bathtub gin" at the bar... secret agent spy techno on the sound system and guys and dolls and shit... I think it would be a blast! Basically a brick facade, a door with a little spy window, tables, chairs, some carpet and a 500 watt sound system. Nothing I haven't done out their before... just DIFFERENT. hahaha...

I would love to have past campmates join in on this, but most won't! And I would love even more to find new people to love the playa with... so I'll be posting about it on some groups, etc. We'll see.. either it will happen or it won't... I figure I'll have a clear indication of it's potential by January, and I 'll buy tix then if it looks good... if not, I'll go to Europe on the money I save! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Cheers my cotters...

See ya

Re: Killerpatio writes

yeah me too...

honestly, after about 1998, he was the last reason I went... It's been a while... I have bad memories of uglyness from my last experience... so, with a new fresh attitude and idea I think I'll give it a whirl... we'll see...

i don't believe i've heard any of the chemical angel stuff before, but goddamn! i said godDAMN! this really makes me want to pull my leather out of the closet and jump into a mosh pit... and it's been years since a tune made me feel like that!

Hahahahaha... yeah, totaly... when I got into this project I was like, "What the hell am I doing? I don't even like this music anymore." But I've had a ton of fun with it and I've been able to inject my own stuff into the sound... it's been rewarding, and I honestly think we're genuinely good!

But, I recommend leaving the leather where it is, hehehe... once you go awhile without wearing one, they're DAMNED heavy and uncomfortable. I gave mine away years ago.

say, if you start planning now, you could do Burning Man next year. We could use a good breaks DJ... and, I promise, you'd dig it the most!

oh man... i've never even considered going to burning man. wow. well, i'll give it some serious thought... and consider buying some "secret agent spy techno" records.

are you actually proposing erecting a building?

[info]porksound

July 14 2005, 23:40:47 UTC 6 years ago

Not a building... but a facade... prolly plywood panels... painted with bricks, maybe do some 20s era graffiti research, etc. set one with a darkened door, single light bulb, etc... set someone to minding the door and only letting people in who know the password... which would be judiciously dissemenated all over the event during the day!!!

don't know if you know much about it... but even at 25 years old B-Man still changes lives with a shocking shift of consciousness... just have to look past the simple stuff like the subtle greed of the organizers, and the stupid antics of the drug addled... but then you've been to Rave parties, so surely you're used to far worse on both fronts, hehehe

I know it's a long shot, more than a year and 2000 miles away... but, you'll be welcomed if you come...

"I've recently concluded that speach is ugly. It sends rough little translations of what the ego is thinking. /// If an idea is had, it's goal is turn the mind away from awareness."

I've been on this page a lot recently; lothing the imperfection of language.

I can say Puddle of flesh and a fully formed image springs into your mind. But it's your image, not mine; it's never what the speaker is trying to convey.

Telepathy now, plzthxbi.

(This, by the way, is why I sometimes greet strangers with the phrase "Damn I wanna get jiggy wit'cha, whassup?". If all communication is equally imprecise, you might as well say whatever the hell you want to, at all times. Provocation weeds out the weak.)

yeah, but thoughts and ideas themselves serve only to limit, to distract. Speach is just their sychophantic lap dog.

Their vomit...

ah well, "Who's talking now" ????????????
