The handy dandy notebook with drug songs in it.

Who's familiar with the TV kid's show Blues Clues? Besides Phil.

Last week Steve, the guy in the green striped shirt left the show. Awwwwwwww.

Where's Steve now?

Don't cry Phil. Steve's right here.

And he's recording a CD! A CD of kid's songs?!?!

Well, let's hope so, cause Steve Drozd from Flaming Lips is playing on it.

I'm Gonna Be Rich!!!

Lookit the email I just got, my problems are OVER!!!

"

ABACHA'S FAMILY ESTATE

(ESTATE DEVELOPERS & CONSULTANTS)

Dear Sir,

It is with heartfelt hope that I write to seek your

co-operation and assistance in the context stated

below:

May I first introduce my self as Dr. Mrs. Mariam

Abacha, the wife of Late General Sani Abacha (former

military head of state and president of the Federal

Republic of Nigeria) who died suddenly on 8th June

1998. I came in contact with your particulars through

a consultancy dairy in which your particulars were

recommended to my late husband for proposals which was

disorganised by the sudden death of my husband. Having

noted the confidence reposed on your person by the

sponsor of the recommendation, I became convinced of

your capability and goodwill to assist me in receiving

the sum of US$20 Million secretly willed in my favour

by the late general (my husband).

This money is kept outside security company in Amsterdam Holland and

i have all documents weth me of where we deposited US$20m

(twenty Million United States Dollars) in a security vault for safe

keeping.

This money has been defaced for security reasons and also to avoid it

been

spent by unauthorized persons.

Since, we have been deliberating on how to invest this fund abroad in

a

confidential manner until we came to a conclusion to use it to buy

houses

and part of it will be used for safe and non-speculative investments in

your

country . however, the current civilian

administration of retired General Olusegun Obasanjo

(the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria) is

seeking vengeance on the Abacha family because of the

life prison jail sentence confirmed on him by my late

husband. In pursuit of this vendetta, the present

government have resolved to freeze all known assets of

General Sani Abacha, including properties at home and

abroad and are presently embarking on to seize the

various bank accounts of my husband. In fact, the

attack on our family (The Abacha's) is so devastated

to an extent of seizing our travelling passport,

family accounts and even trying some members of our

family in court for offences allegedly committed by my

late husband.

In view of this grevious threat to our Economic and

personal survival, our family trustee have secretly

protected the will,The Security Company has called me

to do something about claiming this consignment because of the

demurrage it is incurring and i told them we would come and claim it

very

soon. but seriously advised me to move

$20 Million US Dollars into an overseas amount, hence

the reason why I have chosen you and hope that you

will come to my full assistance and unlimited

co-operation.

In the meantime, there is a travelling embargo on us

(the whole family members) and our local accounts are

seized. We are currently living on goodwill of people

who believe we cannot be held responsible for the sins

of my late husband. In view of this plight, I expect

you to be trustworthy and kind enough to respond to

this distressed call to save me and my children from a

hopeless future. And if you agree to compensate you

sincerely and candid effort in this regard with 25% of

the total amount of $20 Million US Dollars. In that

case, when the money ($20 Million) is moved into your

discrete account, you will be allowed to draw 25% in

your favour,while five percent will be for the expenses

incurred on both sides while the remaining 70% will be invested

meaningfully for my children's future. My cousin (Dr.

TONY .M. Abacha) has perfected arrangements with the

Trust Company concerned and has assured 100% risk free

and safe operation.

And in due course, all contacts must be made through

Dr TONY M Abacha, this E-mail address

I look forward to your quick response while thanking

you for your co-operation. In view of all above

details, I request you to keep this letter and

co-operation highly confidential.

Best wishes,

MRS. MARIAM ABACHA."

"Phil's" Weekly Record Review

lucky7_front (62k image) Hi, "Phil" here, with a review of Lucky 7 by The Reverend Horton Heat.

"If you listen to the band's catalog, you might say there are a few recurring themes found in our songs: beer, gin and tonic, whiskey, cocaine, tequila, martinis, marijuana, cigarettes, cars, more beer, pretty women, sermons, cats and dogs, the devil, Texas, and Jimbo. Not to mention steak and dildos. All the good things in life."

- Jim Heath, a.k.a. the Reverend Horton Heat

An excellent summation! With a slew of fast car songs (one of which touches on one of my favorite cars, the Galaxie 500), broken hearted ballads, and a fine instrumental, this is the perfect record to blast on the way home after a evil day of work, or just play for the hell of it around the house. With the painfully produced by Al Jourgensen "Liquor In The Front" now a couple of records behind them, The Rev proves that he's back and still has what it takes to cram rockabilly and punk together and serve it up real nice-like, Texas style. (And the opening tribute to the Loco Gringos is a nice touch, to boot). Pick it up, you won't be disappointed!

-"Phil"

"Well, it should have been a sign of things to come but my neighbors move into their brand new house. Inventory: 1 artificial Christmas tree, clothes, stereo system, TV, no furniture). The Christmas tree is nicely decorated (remember, it's October). We can tell what the tree looks like because the windows have no miniblinds so at night, you can see right into the house as you drive up. They have also decided to wrap some strands of Christmas lights around their front porch railing. I guess there's no electric outlet nearby because they never turn these lights on."

PDAdvice

ok hopefully since all yall are tech-knowledgers you can help a brother out with some advice on purchasing a pda.

have i talked about this before? if so i wasnt really that serious about it, but i am getting seriouser now. I want to buy a cheap/used pda that would be sync-able with PC(sorry Mac fans). I saw something in office depot recently that intrigued me; a "book" styled dealie where the pda stays in the left side, and the keyboard is on the right side. What are those called?, cuz i cant find them on any site. (I've looked at palm & handspring sites, also half.com and something called cnet.) I think this "book" style is more for me than the fold out keyboard.

i dont much care about any of the modules you can get to turn your pda into a camera, phone, jacuzzi etc, although if there was some such thing that could turn it into a digital RECORDING device, like for audio saples, i'd dig that! I guess email would be cool too; is that a standard feature on these things?

thanks for yalls help, until then i'll keep chiseling my notes and messages into a granite slate.

Dead Kennedys live review

It was okay.

They played the inside room of Emo's to maybe about 150 people. As with any Dead Kennedys' crowd from "back in the day" it was an odd mix of young punks, old punks, frat boys, the merely curious and the unexplained.

I spoke to David Thompson at Emo's who booked the show and he said he was disappointed at the turn out. There were 60 presales. The band apparently asked for a $5000 guarantee, but agreed on $2500, and it looked like the door didn't cover it (so Emo's probably lost some money on it, bar receipts aside).

It was a weird show. It was 3/4 of the Dead Kennedys - East Bay Ray, Klaus Flouride and DH Pelligro - with Brandon Cruz from Dr. Know/Courtship of Eddie's Father on vocals. It was strange seeing the "Dead Kennedys", hearing their songs, but not seeing Jello Biafra on stage.

I spoke to Brandon before the show, and he's a really nice guy (our paths ocassionally crossed in the 80s). He said he was really nervous about this, that this show was the beginning of a US tour - and was curious how it was going to be received.

It turned out they got a polite response. There was some moshing upfront (as I heard one teen say - "I know it's not the Dead Kennedys, but it's as close as I'll ever get). The band played great (I forgot what a great style East Bay Ray has - evil surf music) and Brandon did a fine job for a thankless job.

Still, it was just weird. I think a lot of the crowd was like me, enjoying a really great cover band. Arms kind of folded over, watching it all, but also bobbing our heads at the non-stop parade of Dead Kennedys classics - "Nazi Punks", "California Uber Alles", etc. They are such great songs, but again, it was weird to have it performed by anyone other than the person who came up with such witty lyrics and sang with that odd tremelo that you are used to hearing.

They played a fine set. They walked off stage, the crowd was prepared to leave and the soundman badgered the crowd for more. Quickly the played their encore - "Viva Las Vegas" and "Holiday in Cambodia" and that was that.

There were no rumored Dead Kennedys shot glasses or money clips for sale at the merch table. Just some classic DK t-shirts and the "reissued" (non Alternative Tentacles) versions of their albums on cd.

Some quick thoughts about Throbbing Gristle

tg.bmp (66k file)

I love them but forget about them, then come back to their records again and re-appreciate their humor- that's right- humor. Last week after a particularly gruelling jazz-class dedicated to jazz/rock/fusion, or as i call it, crap, I ran home and burned a live TG bootleg to cd. (Thee Psychic Sacrifice, opens with the very great "Weapons Training") I also finished the cd off by burnig Psychic TV 12" "Unclean" twice, once @ its "intended" 45rpm, then again @ 33rpm, for that extra f*'d-up murky sound.

So I got to thinkin, I've been enjoying the DalPubLib record collection so much, and they DON'T have any Throbbing Gristle in the collection, perhaps I should anonymously donate my vinyl copy of Heathen Earth, just so one day someone on a lark might look for it and find it!

SO, does anyone else have any EXTRA copies of TG or PTV they'd like to pitch in to the donation to DalPubLib? Or perhaps your own local libraries need them..

PS: Dave L, didn't you read and love WRECKERS OF CIVILIZATION? Is it worth the money and effort to find it? Just curious, thanks all!

Texas Punk Junk

Friday Craig Stewart mastered a Stick Men with Ray Guns cd (their first album ever) and Craig's putting it out. Clark (the guitar player) flew from Florida to be there for it. Clark is looking good, is a happy man. His wife is some sort of senior editor at the National Enquirer (I met her too).

Anyway over the course of the weekend I was told about Erin from Superman's Girlfriend's site Texas Punk Junk. It's basically her scrap book of old photos from that time. I honestly don't know most of the people, but it's still kind of fun to leaf through for looking at some Dallas punks in the late 70s (and you do run across the very odd photo of Alan Robinson every now and then).

Also this weekend I went to Motorhead and Merle Haggard. Hoyt, Tom - where were you?

CRAP! It appears that the mp3 got deleted in an unfortunate accident involving a command-line experiment. I think I still have a copy at home, but I won't be back there for couple of weeks. Please check back around the end of September.

Send an email to gene@post-literate.com, and he'll send you a note back telling you where to find the file.

Sorry for the hassle, but we get a lot of requests for this file, and it would eat up our bandwidth, which is why we don't just post it. That and Gene Simmons specifically refused to let Fresh Air post the interview on their site.

Possibly the weirdest thing I've seen all year.

little guy in tails and a skull mask

Sorry the picture is so grainy. I took it through my windshield from about 20 yards away while I was stopped at a red light.

Yesterday, I spotted this guy standing at a non-descript corner in Anchorage wearing a suit with tails, like a tuxedo from a high school drama department's costume closet. But that wasn't the weird part. He had on a big, goofy cloth skull mask and big, floppy skeleton-hand gloves. And he was jumping around and waving. Like it was Dia De Los Muertos or something. Crazy.

Anyway, the light was kind of a long one, maybe two minutes, and he stood there jumping and waving, and just as the light turned green. He gave one last wave and then walked away. Like he had finished his job. Maybe he had.

Amok

Back when I was kid in the early 90s, I was taken by the Amok bookstore in LA and their fantastic catalogs of weird books. It seemed they died out circa '95, so imagine my surprise that you can still get their 576 page catalog from '99:

Amok Fifth Dispatch: Sourcebook for the Extremes of Information

Phil, why didn't you tell me about this?

Amok also appears to have assmebled this 488 page compendium of weird information from '96:

Amok Journal Sensurround Edition

Phil, why didn't you tell me about this?

I've looked around for a web presence for Amok before and never could find one, and really I don't understand why. I would think an Amok bookstore would make more sense on the Internet, where one didn't have to print and mail 500 page catalogs all over the planet just to get some orders.

Of course I get the sense Amok was never about money. I think their reason for existence was merely to assemble their "dispatches" - a collection of unusual books that may have exsited at one point in recent history. When I went to their bookstore in LA (which was basically someone's garage with a couple of paperbacks sitting around), I inquired about several books they had in their catalog and the standard response was "we don't have it in stock, but we can probably order it".

Indeed, I just now found their website, amokbooks.com, and they are more interested in selling their catalog then selling the various books, maybe they don't ever bother trying to sell other books anymore.

Still, if any of you web professionals have any venture capitalist friends and feel like starting an Amok-style online bookstore, I'll buy a book or two.

And your bottom rack is full of vids

Of programs you will nay look at

The way they act is, oh, sheer delight

Cardboard copyright

Make it right

Panic in Sudan

Panic in Wardour

Panic in Granadaland

Panic all over

By the wretched timesheeters

Of my delight

One starry night

The powers that be will have to meet

And have no choice but to...

Eat each other

Eat y'self fitter

Eat each other?

Eat y'self fitter

(Eat y'self fitter)

Portly and with good grace

The secret straight-back ogre entered

His brain aflame

With all the dreams

It had conjured X4

Mit-dem

Don't wanna be a mid-dem X4

The centimeter square

Eat y'self fitter

Said it purged fear

Eat y'self fitter

(Eat y'self fitter)

King

I think all that talk of the clash and x scared/bored King away. We need to figure a way to coax him back into the fold..

Here are some King-related themes that might work:

-hot hunky-dude porn

-anything Patti Hearst related, or other 60s/70s female radicals/revolutionaries

-any discussions of Nina Simone, or any lesser known sullen soul/jazz chick singers [Hey King, are you into Betty Carter?][Roberta Flack?]

-discussions about mid-80s funk, a la Cameo, Grandmaster Flash, etc

-red hot hunky-dude porn

-musical instruments from Asia, and maybe Africa

-local political figures

-local news anchors

-the glory days of All My Children

-Tom of Finland

-buddhism

-super red hot hunky-dude porn

Any of these should rouse our King out of his current non-communicado status! :)

Today's April Fools Day Music

balloon_music (5k image)

yes, it's exactly that: experimental "music" made with balloons. I'm listening to it right now at my desk, so the volume is low, but I am enjoying it, it's very freakin odd, she gets some AMAZING sounds out of them balloons!

Some are like sirens, some are voices, saxaphones, electronics, guitar feedback, industrial etc.

Here is her website: https://jdunaway.web.wesleyan.edu/index.htm Note: on another records she claims VIBRATOR as one of her instruments...

Sandanista

So i went down to the record store today to pick up a little somethin' somethin'. I got the new Patti Smith anthology 'Land' which I haven't heard yet. And I picked up the remastered Sandanista.

I'm now listening to Sandanista. How can you say it's bloated. It's an incredible record beginning to end. Give it a serious listen again. I'm having a very productive, happy working afternoon with it blasting through the studio.

You ever have one of them days when you'd like to relieve the mounting pressures in your head

... with a gun?!

Today is one of those days. As the "kick-off" to Resurrection Week (whatever that is), our building has been hosting a variety of Christian music in the lobby, just below my office.

So the early noonish fare was your obligatory Dave-Matthews-as-Christian stuff, we've discussed that here before. Just now ended the set of the standard "Rocker-Christian" band, with twin blonde-girl singers, whose high, bland double-pitch went straight to the IRRITATE PHIL portion of my brain. Who knows what will be next... I'm thinkin about becoming Christian so I can pray that it will stop.

No wonder That Dude hasn't come back yet!

here's the analogy

ever since mike said:

"i've never heard ANY MC5. Ever. At this point i figure; why bother?!? It would probably sound like a let down."

i've been trying to figure out an apt analogy.

now i think i've got it. it's like saying:

"i've never had a blow job. Ever. At this point i figure; why bother?!? It would probably be like a let down."
