tuesday morning,
I've been working & sleeping whole bunches but now it's the three day schoolweek so it's time to get cracking and all that. I've been eating a nauseating amount of greek salads and drinking too many coffees.
maybe once or twice a year I'll listen to hulk hogan and the wrestling boot band's classic album "hulk rules" and it's always kind of spiritual, the way it turns your brains into soggy bran. there's a track called "bad to the bone" that seriously rips off some judas priest song, I can't put my finger on which one. maybe all of them, it's so ridiculous. anyway, I want to be a hulkamaniac and have fun with my family and friends. the girls all know that we're out of control, we're bad bad bad to the bone.
I've been listening to a lot of prince, namely his "the black album" album which is amazing. I guess that makes sense.
I finally put the finishing touches on this compilation disc I'd been working on for forever.

robert fripp is in six days which is insane. that business will be all sorts of intense.
this writing is unbearably bland, I'll wrap up with the news flash that I don't have that awful cold any more. not at all.

Oh well, evidently he comes to the world cafe, maybe he'll swing through again in the near future. I'd like to experience live soundscapes at some point. I've seen Crimson the last 3 times the came to philly, but there wasn't much as far as soundscape, except for pre-recorded music before the show.

you've prompted me to learn a hulkster factoid
man that song's a tear jerker.from Amazon:
" "Hulkster in Heaven" is a ballad about a young Hogan fan who was invited to sit front row by Hogan at a show in the UK. Hogan wrestled the show when it took place and looked in the section expecting to see the fan and the seat was empty. It turns out he had died. The lyric: 'Guess there'll be an empty seat when I wrestle at Wembley' comes from that."
A fact a day keeps the doctor away, and you've prompted me to learn a hulkster factoid. god bless you.

How was the Fripp show? I'm kicking myself for not going.
Eno is teh coolness. Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks is the best album ever (after my favorite album of course). Do you know the band Low? They are phenomenal.
Anyway, carry on, carry on...
