Recent activity...in the last couple of weeks:
So, wrote a new song with Neil Gaiman, which will appear on a cd (in the very near future...probably the beginning of November) by a wonderful musical entity called Lorraine a' Malena. I also arranged a '20's era oddly beautiful (David Lynchian) standard for it (which involved my theremin), and did the layout & design for the cd booklet. I suggest you hunt it down and make it a part of your life.
My new goth night, "Crypt" (a continuation of my ManRay Wednesday night) started tonight, and was a resounding success. xoxo to everyone who attended.
Saw "Mirrormask". Run/walk/hobble/fly to your nearest theatre for a visual experience you won't soon (either) remember and/or forget.
Went to see Dead Can Dance. Live. Why can't I get my bongos to sound as amazing? And whay isn't every popular band using a hurdy-gurdy or 3?
Went to a midnight showing of an amazing Japanese lesbian nun bondage movie called "School Of The Holy Beast". Highly recommended for the whole family.
Saw Neil Gaiman do a reading and book signing for "Anansi Boys".
Saw the Crxshadows live.
Cleaned a lot of junk from my computer, and organized my sound & music files.
Wrote 4 new songs.
Spun music at "Heroes" the Saturday night thing I started after ManRay closed. It's going well, and I'm so happy about that.
Found two ridiculously out of print cd's online that I used to own (they were stolen from me), and rushed to buy them. And won. (!) Yay for Masami Tsuchiya's "Life In Mirrors" and Blancmange's "Believe You Me". I now finally own these two treasures again.
...And I'm spending time with my hubby. Buying a house together definitely seems like a reality in the not too distant future! More developments soon!
