I ain't got much time cuz just did gig six of the fiftyone I'm doing

the u.s. southwest or what? well worth it though cuz gig-goers coming
are most happening, respect.

but look, this is BIG TIME important and my tour shit most piddly in
perspective:

this is for my music brothers/sisters... I wanna ask you something.
righteous skaterman/musician tommy guerrero is putting together a
benefit comp to help w/the hurt over in japan right now cuz of the
earthquake that wailed on them. I'm sending him a track from my new
album and wondering if you might wanna do something like that too. to
find out more, please write him at:

tommy@dlxsf.com

thanks so much for hearing me out on this.

and this from ms mo, another way folks who don't blow notes can help:


http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Asia-Pacific/2011/0315/Japan-earthquake-and-tsunami-How-to-help

respect to ms mo. her folks had tsunami stop half a klick from their

HUGE LOVE!

let's bring it on and help!



on bass, watt

Subject: pynchon in public day 2011

 

 

http://www.pynchoninpublic.com/about/

Suggestions for the day itself:

1) Reading books, in public, by or about Thomas Pynchon.

2) Reading work of his 'heirs', such as David Foster Wallace, David
Mitchell, Neal Stephenson and Dave Eggers.

3) Reading work of authors who have cited Pynchon as an influence.
These include: Don DeLillo, Ian Rankin, William Gibson, Alan Moore,
Bruce Sterling and David Cronenberg.

4) Reading any other work, for example Katie Price's latest biography,
preferably with a sticker on the cover, 'My Other Book Is A Thomas
Pynchon'.

5) Organizing a local version of the W.A.S.T.E. postal network, as
described in 'The Crying of Lot 49?.'

6) Calling local radio stations, requesting they play 'Gravity's
Rainbow' by the Klaxons and other Pynchon-themed songs.

7) Organize a 'Philately Gone Wild' club night. Patrons could come
dressed as their favorite Pynchon character, covered in mute post horn
symbols in body paint or Weimar era cabaret stars.

8) Launching model V-2 rockets in an appropriate safe open area.

9) Post the muted post horn everywhere (see below).

10) Set up your own W.A.S.T.E. Network

11) Take a hot-air balloon trip in honor of the Airship Boys in Against
the Day. Openly carry a copy of the book as you do so.

12) Pledge to begin writing a Pynchon-influenced novel or short story.

13) Read The Education of Henry Adams in public.

14) Buttonhole strangers at random and explain to them the process of
entropy.

15) Adopt a Pynchon character's name for the day. Use it on official
forms.

Subject: word "punk" and shakespeare

 

http://hotword.dictionary.com/punk/

What does Shakespeare have to do with punk rock?

June 17, 2011

While the modern day use of the word "punk" might suggest anarchistic
youth, William Shakespeare used the term quite differently over 400
years ago. So how did this word evolve from a derogatory term aimed at
a woman to a derogatory term aimed at a young man?

Although its exact etymology is not known, the term "punk" has
survived numerous changes in meaning throughout the centuries. The
first recorded use of the term (unknown origin) occurred in the early
1590s, with reference to a "prostitute, harlot." The term "taffety
punk," a reference to "a well dressed whore," appears in William
Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well, penned between 1604 and 1605.

The Scottish, spunk, meaning "a spark," is a 1530s reference to
burning embers and ashes. A similar use of the word can be found in a
1618 account by native inhabitants of Virginia as a reference to
overcooked corn: "Some of them, more thriftye then cleanly, doe burn
the coare of the eare to powder, which they call 'pungnough,' mingling
that in their meale, but yet never tasted well in bread or broath."
Native peoples throughout the Delaware region of the United States used
the word ponk around this time to reference "rotten wood used as
tinder."

By 1896, and perhaps fueled by the "rotten" connotation to the term,
punk had become synonymous with "something worthless" and "young
criminal" -- specifically in relation to a male youth. It is perhaps
the latter definition that Dave Marsh had in mind when he coined the
phrase "punk rock" in his May 1971 column featured in Creem magazine.
