Some helpful notes for you about the songs: "Luces blancas" is about when cars pass each other and there are headlights and also traffic lights reflecting on each other; "El Mar" is about the sea; "Tricotosa" is a type of toy sewing machine popular with a generation of kids in Spain.

More notes: "Aina" is apparently referencing a Spanish hardcore band of the '90s! Apparently Isasa used to be in the hardcore scene back then. @OwnCrab: Will check them out, thanks! @drjazz: Yes, a very nice intimate spot in Brooklyn next Saturday. I'll announce the other dates, too, in case some of you are listening in North Carolina or Maryland. He's in Durham tonight, Asheville on Tuesday, Chapel Hill on Thursday, Baltimore on Friday, and Brooklyn is the tour end on Saturday.

@Itzall@10:28, agreed! But then I'd also take being vomited on by a rhino over Don Felder. (But preferably, a rhino vomiting *on* Don Felder. While eagles peck him for slandering their good bird name.)

Hiya, Joe. A Defcon 4 deadline came out of nowhere and all about are losing control of major muscle groups. Been listening right along, trying to keep my wits about me. Thanks for the spins. Now to get out of this Hazmat suit and into a cool tumbler of rocket fuel. Later.
