I love that good friends twice my age will greet people on the phone with “Yay!” It tells me somehow that I have the right friends.<\/p>\n
I re-discovered The Birthday Party<\/a> today. I was lucky enough to be pointed thier direction when I was living in Toronto. The quiet joy of knowing musicians. They were just starting out in 2000 and they were called Imajica then, which is why I lost them. It’s quite precious music and thier site is beautifully put together if certain death for dial-up. If I had a credit card, I would buy thier albums rather than pirate.<\/p>\n Which reminds me, if anyone knows what happened to the Jonah Complex<\/strong>, I would quite like to know. I caught them once<\/a> at Lee’s Palace<\/a> and fell utterly in love. They could be a dead project for all I know, but I sincerly hope not.<\/p>\n In other news, Jeff<\/a> has finally updated. More tiny snippets of life in Japan, though for that in specific I strongly<\/em> suggest you visit the journal of Momus<\/a>. He’s on a music tour of right now and gifting us with rich entries full of culture and recordings of fascinating snippets of life. There’s sound clips and video and his writing is simply superbly informative. I learn something interesting and new every time he updates. Links between ancient Greece and Japan<\/a> with links to essays; the particular robes young girls wear to watch the fireworks with the delicate sound<\/a> that thier geta make on the stone streets; recording history and art and people and pictures. It’s multi-media experiencing, intellectually glorious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I love that good friends twice my age will greet people on the phone with “Yay!” It tells me somehow that I have the right friends.
