Free download while supplies last!!!

Now you, yes you can own a digitalized copy of the analogously recorded lo-fi spectacular known near and narrow as "ghosts of christmas presence by joel rockey." By simply clicking on the link immediately following, you will be mere moments away from downloading a zip file containing a hi resolution cover image, original insert sleeve in printable PDF format and all ten tracks in glorious AAC just waiting to be burned onto a crispy new CD-R (cd-r not included). All that's required of you is that you must listen to it backward and forward and upside down while hanging from monkey bars in a chicken costume while whistling along to every tune... (use your discretion on that last one) Please enjoy and have a neat summer! BFF!

Share the hair

The reluctant hermit emerges from his cavernous dwelling once again in another attempt at assimilation.
He carefully walks his ever thinning line between social butterflies and social lepers.
What was never more than a glimmer of hope has all but surrendered to the already deafening cries which he imagines from women and children on the street.
"The beard! Destroy the beard!"
He will not be shaken.
He returns to the fold of silence and empty pages.

Whatever happened to...
Remember this young balloon toting pop star who helped navigate the dreams and aspirations of all americans toward peace on earth, walking on moons and domesticated wildlife? His name was Michael Jackson. The name may sound familiar as a pasty gentleman who uses the same name has found himself gracing the cover of many a tabloid in recent years. However, the young man pictured above performed a song which made innumerable turns around my record player as a child. I purchased the 45 rpm record for side A which ultimately saw very little needle time once I flipped that piece of vinyl over. From deep within the grooves of side B emerged a repetitive dance groove which sent me and my brother into a frenzy each time we heard it. I still own that 45... deep scratches, cracks and all. Ladies and gentlemen, as far as I'm concerned, "Thriller" was the B side of this lesser known Michael Jackson classic. Experience this joint as I did as a child and lose yourself in its hypnotic groove...Can't Get Outta the Rain by Michael Jackson

American blood

I found this photo in a recent unpost...
Daniel Day-Lewis's portrayal of oil man Daniel Plainview character is brilliantly executed. His descent into madness is a frightening yet mesmerizing spectacle... on par with Orson Welles' George Foster Kane.
Checked out the film Great Wall of Sound...

Week espresso and the darjeeling limited
Nothing like weak espresso to give one a kick in the pants. No more I say. No more.An epic turnout at the strange brew turned another last minute hootenanny into a true event. Collaborating with mr. kyle siegel and mr. scott hensley was magic. Sending out the good word about ms. eddie's little film that will. It will.
Met some new folk and was quite pleased to see some old friends. Age has nothing to do with it. Thanks for coming out and supporting the independent arts - music, film, coffee, etc. Speaking of, ms. toni carr who co-owns and operates the strange brew coffee house with her guy mr. dan carr is having a book of her knitting designs published. Pre-order Knock Down Knits: 30 Projects from the Roller Derby Track from amazon.com right now if you know what's good for you.
So, miranda jane and i sat down and absorbed the delightful new wes anderson film The Darjeeling Limited this week. It was a moving tale of brothers reconnecting and coming to terms with their father's death and their mother's abandonment as they venture across India with all of their proverbial and literal baggage in tow. Do see this film.
Also see these films:
Margot at the Wedding
Eagle vs. Shark
Juno
Can you taste spring on the tip of your tongue yet?

Thanks mr. bent
Your welcome mrs. moorman
