Are You Here For The Affair?

so this mind erasing, scramble of a month finally comes to a close tonight

if you didn't know or want to know,

I have been playing solo shows at the hideout everything thursday
of the month, each night with a different guest opener as
well as 8mm films.

tonight is the final show of the month and I am exhausted

along with working the day job, practicing with pedal steel
and finishing my grad school applications, I am in the mood
for a nice stress free weekend

(yeah right I already have planned 15 things for the weekend)

I wonder if all the schneiders in the world sat down at the
same time at the same moment if the world would explode

anyways the shows have been great and I thank everyone and all
who has come out to support.

The O.C. Must Die

thats right

I've had it, can't take it

eating away and devouring too many of my friends for me too handle
(yes g3p0 I'm looking in your direction)

all that we have left are me, fask, quinn, and robby

the rest of you have all been brainwashed and mind-erased by the fox corporation
My brother has even looked at me with a blank stare
spouting off "its our generation's version of the ed sullivan show..."

I am surprised he didn't look at me and tell me that he loves paul mccartney,
hates bob dylan, spends extra cash for premium gas, and is dressed from head to
toe in cubs gear.

I mean after ritualistically running around the couch 3 times and then
bowing down before the fox emblem with his new neon fleece OC sweat shirt

don't get me wrong I love staring at hot chicks for an hour in a row
but those 2 chumps for guys they have on the show have kept me from ever finishing
a single episode. Their voices whine and make me wanna puke

whats that you say?
thats right never done the dance...
never went the whole 9 yards

I mean I have gotten really close
(bottom of the 9th, 2 strikes, 2 outs, man on third...)
and click turned the TV off
it felt awesome
felt better than the first time I actually made it a month without smoking

I am rounding up an anti-OC posse
we will ride through the evening by horseback and stop at every household
watching the OC blaring screeching violins, trombones and broken saxophone reeds
until they get so frustrated by not hearing the dialog that they come outside to
kick my ass when all along my stealthy riders of the night ride into the
friskilating moonlight. When returning they will have lost their place in
time with the storyline and will feel the OC grasp slightly dimisinish
this is your chance to be free

join me

Tommy Boy...We're All Screwed...

I can't believe terry schiavo made it into one of my blogs
we shouldn't even know about the case in the first place
it should have remained private and stayed within the
immediate family.

This bush bible-belt neo-conservative christianity has got to go.

(hey hey... ho ho...
this penis party's got to go...
hey hey... ho ho...
this penis party's got to go)

It reeks of the highest form of hypocracy in the history of
man kind. How can these religious freaks preach about the sanctity of life
with a woman who has been brain dead for 15 years and can't even extend a single
iota of help to a homeless person who has complete function over his/her physical
processes,(even when they are drunk as poets on payday)

It just makes me mad that they waste all of this energy on unborn fetuses
and brain dead patients, instead of helping out the people who could
really use some help and change their life for the better.
the night they had an immediate congressional hearing, how many homeless people
died in the U.S... probably thousands and we are sitting her wasting our time on
one person's private life that isn't even our business.

anyways sorry bout the rant...feels good to get it out

new all time low fox reality shows

michael jackson molesting terry schiavo in real time?

please feel free to offer other considerations

ol oglseberry finding a way to make it to the afterparty..bravo my compadre
unlike the new "maxi-best early to bed" G3P0 who must have needed his beauty sleep.
all of the pedal steel boys were there sans g-heim.
we had an all night champaign jam without him complete
with dual guitar solo's by brett and don
we also took care of some dancin, boozin, and smokin in your absence, so no need to worry

G's gonna kill me for this post, but it had to be done, he would have done the
same given my situation.

I promise to write something someday instead
of just posting pictures............................

thats cool dude...

jerry

here is ol jerry boy in easy rider form..beautiful
jerry was in full mode saturday night and we couldn't have
gotten through the night without him.

Beer Blast

robby

here's robby after getting douched by nissa with some beer
after he sprayed her with some water. Of course this was just after
he had run around the kitchen like a madman, stealing bricks of cheese
and granny smith apples...

Crystal Gaze

here's me and bro riding on the crazy train on saint patty's day

How can these guys even think for a second that they didn't use roids

I mean look at these skinny twigs
its like they drank a whole vial of
radioactive gamma rays and hung
out with the hulk for a while.

whitesox 2005

Skinny legs and all

twiggy

in a manner of speaking

"I smoke my cigarette with style..."

so it has been 3 weeks since I have had a smoke and I really don't miss
the day to day rountine of waking up wanting wanting wanting
and still wanting as my throat feels ripped and torn to shit

the things that get me are thinking of slightly brisk
sunny spring days where you can wear a light jacket
and the snow has just melted and made the ground all
wet and damp, and the flowers are just starting to bud
and bloom and as you walk down the street on
a 4 oclock on a saturday as you light a smoke
and sit and think about everything(of course while you are walking)
and take in everything around you

I also think of nights staying up all night with a girl dancing around
your room with candles and music and laughing and kissing
and secretly stealing smokes out of my window as the morning
light begins to fill my room talking of
everything that has ever happened to the 2 of you.

of course you don't need to have these moments
to still enjoy beautiful aspects of life
but once they have been cast
it really is hard to picture these experience the same
without them
or to at least not somehow desire to relive the situation

smoking isn't something you need for coffee
or beer or parties or going out
but in memories and things that you once
had or didn't have

things from the past or things that you
sit and dream of someday becoming

dry skin = lotion often

so I have something to throw out there that I thought
some of you could help me clear up

I would like to know if anyone has any clue what is meant
by the liberal "biased" media

what or who in fact are/is the liberal media

it seems to me that any show that actually looks at
american affairs from a global perspective is known as a liberal program

if it isn't 100% pro-american it is a liberal program

the new york times, washington post, cnn, npr, bbc
all of these programs tend to tell us of what is going on in the world
instead of why the rest of the world is screwing us over

I mean fox television and right wing radio programs
are money making schemes clear and simple and that is it
they are in no way telling us the news or what is happening in the world
and I have to admit they know what they are doing

but they only tell a certain portion of the world news
which would leave many (and does leave many)in the dark

how is telling as much of the truth as possible liberal
and only telling a sliver of the actual reality on this planet
conservative

I wouldn't nomenclate it as liberal vrs. conservative
but somewhat shadey vrs. super slim shadey

where does Al-Jazeera fit in?

Nouvelle Vague

has anyone heard nouvelle vague
really great french/brazilian 60's influenced pop band
that plays covers of early 80's no wave and punk

here's the website

great version of joy divisions "love will tear us apart"

I also especially love the cover of the dead kennedy's song "too drunk to fuck"

very very hot

the russians are coming aka KgB-p

kGbP

looks like g3p0 is about to bust his "breathless" move
godard would be proud my friend

anyways had a sucessful mission to the north country
great shows in both madtown and minny with a write-up in
each city.

the drive to madison sucked, friday traffic with rain and people
driving like idiots, got to the king's club at 9:30 with an hour to spare.

stuck in gp-kb land for most of the ride
not a bad space to be, although I kinda freaked out
when I couldn't just chill to darkside of the moon on the way to the gig
there is something about that album that has to be
played all the way through with no interruptions(sorry kgbp)

beautiful day yesterday
time to recharge the batteries

I am not a robot...

typing under water

the beginning of the singleman affair residency
started last night and I really had a great time
although as per usual there had to be a bunch of
major snafu's to maintain my high anxiety level

I remember feeling really good walking into the hideout
with the sun still shining and my head thinking
this is gonna be simple, hook up the projector and then
tune up the guisitars and then its go time

the minute you think those things is the minute
you knew you shouldn't have

you should always anticipate disaster
that way you are always ready
what the hell was I thinking

when I got there the s-video cable was busted
and the video projector wouldn't communicate
with windows media player
I had to then play all of the movies through quicktime
which sucks because it won't allow you to expand to a full screen

another quick note
if you start a show at 6:30
pace yourself, I was wasted by 9:00pm
it was kinda like when you get a keg at 5:00pm for a party
and you are passed out in the living room before
the first person even arrives.

never ever settle

up late last night with qblog working on
a puzzle, trying to find all the small tiny lights inside
las vegas [puzzle style]

we had a really good talk about what everyone is looking
for and what we all want in our lives

Q: " never ever ever settle until you find something perfect"

that rang in my head for a while
and I think it is a testament to life and living itself
to never ever settle on anything in your life

until something feels perfect in your heart
it ain't perfect for you

now I'm not saying that you need to go
out and be super judgemental about every little
thing but it does feel comforting to still
strive for some form of ideal

is idealism an eternally fated idea?

can true love exist without tragedy?

chew on those for a while...
I sure hope so tot he last question, but it doesn't seem that way

I have been in grad school application dismay for too many weeks now

too many ways to say things about yourself
that all comes across as ass kissin and bullshit
