Re:Play-Re:Celebrate-Re:X-Mas



The rerelease of two albums that I have only ever experienced together, since the glory years. Very fitting for this true Sunday morning jam. Honestly, how rad is the makeup of this band? Coming from projetcs such as Slint, Rodan, Shipping News, June of 44, and Tortoise! Glory years indeed.

Promised works.

Promises for the new year, the new life.
Promised awesomeness.
Woke up this morning in Stockton, California. The warm smell of jook with biao guo and pork wafting through the house.
Merry Christmas everybody.
See you next year.

Visions of Sugar Plums



So stoked on this record. The efforts of Dustin Clark and friends. Thanx everybody. Quite possible the best Christmas album since Bootsy Collins' Christmas is 4 Ever.

Seriously, thank you all. And to all a good morning...

OFF! (my tits)



Define Sunday Morning? For me, on this day, Sunday, December 11, 2011, it happened shortly after midnight. Drunk off my tits on my own homemade egg nog I decided to put on some punk rock music. No better way to get the whiskey coursing through your veins. The hangover was so great, it took me until now to be able to form these words. That was one hell of a party.

Punk rock super group:
Keith Morris
Domitri Coats
Steven McDonald
Mario Rubalcaba

seriously f'ing RAD.

Deck the Halls



It is my favorite time of year, again. Annual trek to Santa's Tree Farm with the Sprengs to do some holiday tree hunting. What a glorious sight, the evergreen in the heart of our home. Just got the living room situated, put the finest Christmas music ever on the hi-fi, opened a bottle of 2005 Merlot, it is time for some lights. Merry Christams everybody. See you next weekend...

when PM becomes AM

Again, nothin'. Just rolled into town; home from going 'home' for the holiday. Thought I would have time to post something before the AM turned everything to a Monday. I don't even have the energy to think about what I heard today. No albums in their entirety so, no complete entry. Just this note for posterity.

more later...

Live From a Shark Cage DC170



A beautiful foray into the foothills of the psychie. Looping towards infinity on simple rifs in the key of awesome. As the clouds drop water from the infinite source of the sky Papa M drops strategic beats that fall right as rain. Mr. Pajo does it again (well, did it again). With the weather falling outside, and reality falling all around me, I go to my happy place(s). This record, as many records do, holds for me a record of experience, and adds context to experiences to come. The Great Forever is on his way. Shower the baby today, and on and on and on ...
