BUMBERSHOOT

WHAT FINER CITY to catch both COULTON and the RUDE MECHANCALS' live production of REESIAN CLIP ART COMICS OF RAGE than Seattle?

NO FINER CITY, for that's where it's all happening.

Plus: MIRMAN, SCHAAL, REDD, m'er-f'ing CROWDED HOUSE?

COULD THIS BE THE GREATEST BUMBERSHOOT EVER?

End of rhetorical questions.

That is all.

HERE IS COULTON AT THE PAX EVENT

THE PAX EVENT apparently is a convention for thousands of decaying zombies.

I WISH I HAD BEEN THERE.

That is all.

SATISFIED?

THE PROPER SPELLING IS:

"Glennnn."

That is all.

BLACK SQUIRREL INVASION



A DISPATCH FROM THE FRONT LINES of the black squirrel invasion that apparently was WRITTEN BY A CAT.

THIS DOES NOT BODE WELL.

That is all.

Courtesy: Catymology

POST SCRIPT: I must second the cat's fondness for this CANADIAN SONG celebrating "Vicky," the black squirrel of Victoria Park, London, Ontario, CANADA.

CO. THE DETROIT EDISON

I HAVE BEEN REMISS in calling attention to my favorite photographs of manholes and other things.

FORGIVE ME, Kodamakitty, and thank you.

THAT IS ALL.

I'M SORRY, IAN, NO

TO RESPOND QUICKLY TO IAN, from the comments, I am not in Boston to do any readings. I am only here to do some writings.

THAT IS ALL.

THANK YOU, ADRIANE

THANK YOU, ADRIANE, from the comments, for the link to STUBHUB.

A VERY USEFUL RESOURCE; if, in the future, I ever have need to see a sporting spectacle again, I shall turn there, and think gratefully back to your help.

THAT IS ALL.

THE BOSTON RED SOX

AFTER DISCUSSING IT WITH INTERNET GURU "COULTON," I have decided this is the best way to do this.

AS YOU KNOW, I DISLIKE SPORTS; however, certain members of my family who are too young to know better have started professing a like for the YANKEES BASEBALLERS.

I HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY to explain why this is an error.

NOW I AM BRIEFLY IN MY HOMETOWN OF BROOKLINE, MA, and my only
hope for reeducating the youth of today is via DIRECT FENWAY PARK IMMERSION, which is to say:

I REQUIRE THREE TICKETS TO THE HOMETOWN BALL GAME TOMORROW (SUNDAY), the 2:05PM game against the LOS ANGELES ANGELICS.

I AM WILLING TO PAY FACE VALUE for these tickets. I will meet the current owner of these tickets at BROOKLINE BOOKSMITH where I will pay in cash or check, and I will also buy that person a copy of my book (IF IT IS AVAILABLE) and sign it IN INK.

SUCH IS THE TRANSACTION I PROPOSE. You know how to reach me. I regret to have drawn you all into this family vendetta.

THAT IS ALL.

.28 SPEAKS


I REGRET I have been away for so long. I have been traveling and without a steady stream of ELECTRONIC INFORMATION PACKETS DELIVERED VIA THE AIR.

BUT NOW I HAVE THEM, including this very interesting packet from one who claims to be ".28", a numbered member of the mysterious EARONS. From the comments...

BEGIN QUOTED TEXT

" .28 said...

"Anonymity is a great thing. At this point of my musical journey, in order to get a record deal, what you look like and the color of your skin determines the genre that you’ll be put in. That thing we call musical category. For me, music has always been universal. The concept of The Earons was designed to listen to the music and forget whether we had long hair, green hair, “punk” hair, black or white, listen to the music, and have a good time. I will always be grateful to Chris Blackwell for taking us and giving us a chance at Island Records to explore this concept we call The Earons.

"Were in a Land of Hunger, a land of waste, kinda makes you wonder about this place.

"We not only hunger for food but we hunger for love and understanding here on earth.

"PEACE TO ALL, ( .28)"

END QUOTED TEXT

.28 IS STILL MYSTERIOUS, but obviously welcome here should the WHITE MOTORCYCLE HELMET OF DESTINY ever wish to make contact again.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE, members and non-members of the EARONS alike.

That is all.
