I usually stay away from the boards.


But for some reason I just had to read the comments about the new gibson movie controversy.



Why did I do that?



I mean- I was expecting the usual childish ignorance- the usual ego trips- the self righteousness- the deeply rooted IDIOTIC religious concepts- the hate that DOES EXIST- no matter what PC colors you paint it with....

Alright. Cool. I'm not trying to make it scifi. More conspiracy than anything.

Besides, with Barry's comment, he was ASKING for it. tongue

Hey! Just had to add my dubious opinion on cameras. I have the Canon Powershot and I LOVE it! All the pics in my journal have been taken with the 5 megapixel model. It is so easy to use and does a whole shit load of stuff that I haven't even started to learn about yet. Digital cameras are big, big fun! biggrin

I read somewhere that the throughout his life, the avarage person is likely to swallow 4 spiders in his sleep.

And I say- that's mediocre bullshit!


I'm above avarage-

I'm shooting for 8!

So much has happened over the weekend.

I'll try to recap, but as it is 1:24AM and I wake up early tomorrow, I'll start with a brief list and will try to fill in tomorrow. (just in case you're actually curious about all this stuff smile )

I finished reading the saddest book I've ever read.

It was also one of the most beautiful.

lol, turtleegg604, yeah, it's illegal to dance in any establishment in all of NYC that doesnt have a Caberet license. And the cops enforce it. . kinda. . . its more used to give them an excuse to go into a bar and start searching people and checking ids and collect ticket and fine $$. But it sucks....actually the most fucked up part is the wording of the law:

"....any rhythmic motions that could be considered movement to music."

So technically tapping your hand to a song, bopping your head to a song while sitting, or, if they really want to be assholes, i guess they can misconstrew a musician tapping his/her foot to keep time as 'dancing' or some sort of breech of the law. Anyone seen Footloose? lolol tongue

Groove, Arc is a club down in tribeca. Danny Tenaglia spins every friday. They have their fair share of bigger name underground DJ's (yay paradox, lol) they usually dont have a liquor license so it does tend to have its 'fair share' of drugs and younger people because no liquor means . Arc It used to be Vinyl a while back. Unfortunately its closing in april frown

Today we will learn how to play one of the strongest rhythms in the world.

Well- actually, it's not really a rhythm- it's more a 'Clave' ('Klah-v') which means: 'key'

I wont get into the subject in depth- that will take a few hours of typing. suffice to say that this 'key' - is the skeleton for most African based music, Cuban, Brazilian,...

Hey Groovester!

Your drunken post made me giggle with glee. You know that there is always room on the starisea futon for you, right? smile

I picked up the Tabla Beat Science DVD at Millenium Music. It was actually spotted by my boy. He has amazing karmic frequencies when thumbing through CDs. If I would have been hip to this gig, I totally would have flown down to San Francisco to be in attendance. It must have been mind blowing to see it live.

How was Karsh Kale live? Did he do mostly drum stuff or mixing or both?

(Teehee! I ran into Flux whilst shopping yesterday. First time that I have spotted an SG offline. She is so wee and was so gracious and cool. I got to compliment her personally on the day that her and Scylla's set went up. Yay! Got to love the SG community. love )

PS~ How did your Friday night gig go? Give me details man!

Yeah I've been air drumming for a long time now. I've started making my own beats actually, on the PC that is.

In accord with my advices to myself, I went to this jam session downtown, that's famous for being a pretty good 'meat market' for getting good paying gigs.

It's about f'ing time too- I've been in this city for 3 years...

Man, you certainly can write a lot. eeek I wish I could be a generative as you.

If I have to change my handle, I think I'll skip the whole "User formerly known" thing and go right to the unpronouncable symbol. wink
But, that'll be a while yet...
