you should all go out right now and buy, beg, borrow, or steal the cd 'faces down' by sondre lerche. he's a 19 year-old kid from norway, and this album is amazing. his voice sounds uncannily like donovan's (and the female voices on a few duets are way too lovely for words). the music reminds me of what beck should have been, the promise that...

Toreena had a dream about me!
I don't care how horrible or laughable it might have been,
I was just happy to be in there somewhere...
*swoon*

hey takora,
i meant to respond to your last post, too. four of my friends moved away last week, and i don't have many left in town, since they've been trickling away slowly over the years. i'm actually kind of down about it, ech. i think it's what got me into this "what am i doing with my fucking life" and "i need a new thing" mode. echhhhh.
i love your journal.

I did that once.
It was awhile ago, but she and I still love each other, and with that knowledge, we are never alone.
Geez, I am a cornball.
Also, what'd you think abou that leather site? And did you remember any of the other web addresses?

And if by now you don't know what I'm talking about, then you have to be there opening day.

i'm not sure whats more disturbing: that picture, or the fact that you put that picture up.
THE WONDERFUL!!
new pictures of Toreena! and Emma! i never really liked multi-girl sets before, but this one... it's all just too much to take, so i must now join a monastery. i remember that there is a nice little Tibetan Buddhist one upstate, in an abandoned christian church building, in the woods. it was beautiful there. maybe they will have me?
THE GOOD!

badm0j02:
Is that your stormtrooper outfit?
tired, but not sleepy.
feeling a little too warm and slightly queezy.
worked a lot today, but probably not enough.
and not really on anything creative.
and the cat was in a foul mood all day,
and he kept yelling at me and trying to bite my hands as i worked.
i'm not really sure what else is going on...

I think that's the last album I bought too. You should hear the newest stuff. It's really terrinble!!!!!! He has this new woman as his lead singer and they are trying for a contemporary R&B sound as filtered through his past history of 4AD goth to beach boys to appalachia to like Whitney Houston or something. You havta hear it to believe it. Regardless, I'm still kinda intersted in him. His label released this CDR of a record he found at a thrift store. It was called The Steps. I think they were Thai, but it is an instrumental 60s kinda surf music mixed with Thai traditional and contemporary(at the time) sounds. If you want i'll burn you a copy. Go to his website. it pretty funny and mildly interesting just to see the scope of his endeavors. It's probably timestereo.com or something similar.

you know - I used to be a fairly crazy shopper at Dusty Groove too and I am into obscure 60's and 70's soul and funk, 60's now, freakbeat, garage, brazil, italian sndtrck, etc., blah, blah - but there are always tons o stuff that I don't have, so a trade would be good!!
-enjoy your city and your weather, friend. today I was tlakign abtou NYC and I said "The city", and noone knew I was talking about mahattan, because I was in LA. gross.
