One more of the Wing's ailerons here. Good afternoon. |

Ours was small and quiet. The highlight was changing the resin in the water softener. Boy howdy! |

![]() I'm going to take this Acid Mothers Temple business live in a week or so. Yay! |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:27pm
Mark R:
Small but nice group. My brother and his wife drove in all the way from northern Michigan. Had a nice visit, took 'em to look at the windows in the city (which except for Bendels I found VERY disappointing btw). | |
![]() |
![]() Full of turkey, pie and whatever. |

Windows? That's a thing? |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:28pm
Mark R:
I notice it's been a while since I've heard a new Acid Mothers album. These guys used to be good for 2-4 albums a year. What gives. | |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:29pm
Mark R:
Well, all the stores on Fifth Avenue used to do these really extravagant windows for Christmas, but this years' seemed a little half-assed, except as I said, Henri Bendel's, which are always extraordinary. | |

@Mark R: Maybe it has to do with the collective ennui. |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:33pm
Mark R:
Ha shows what I know! I'm a little out of touch lately. | |
![]() |
![]() Mine was quiet and full/filling. Girls home from school, no other family members. Drink, food, football. Not in that order. |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:34pm
Mark R:
They must just record every time they get together and jam. Really digging the trippy vibe today, Mary. | |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:35pm
Mark R:
Mary, if I may ask, is Ken ever coming back, or is this just an extended hiatus, or do you not even know? | |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:36pm
Mark R:
Just between you me and the lamppost, I prefer having you twice. | |

Kenzo should be back next week, unless he eats those poisoned chocolates I sent him... |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:44pm
Mark R:
Always nice to hear an old favorite amongst the unfamiliar and new. Sort of like running into an old friend at a party. | |
Wed. 11/28/18 12:46pm
Mark R:
And yes, the wind is indeed wild today in North Jersey. Very bitter! | |

![]() Hi! My folks were bored with turkey and stuffing and that whole bit, so we went out to Elmhurst, Queens, for Thai food instead. It was great. Best Thanksgiving in a while. |

This version of the Heads was SO funky and cool. I'm very, very sorry I never saw them, in any incarnation. Goddammit! What the fuck was I doing? | |

![]() I just saw Byrne on this recent tour. Sensational show, as you might expect. |
![]() |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:43pm
βrian:
The one time I saw Byrne, he was kinda upstaged by Margareth Menezes. |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:43pm
Mark R:
Boy this sure sounds like "Venus in Furs" so far... | |
![]() |
![]() I love this. |
![]() |
![]() Byrne seems to me to be a little socially uncomfortable onstage when he is interacting with the audience between songs, etc .. He could probably be upstaged by anyone with a more dynamic personality. |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:47pm
Mark R:
Carmichael, I wouldn't be surprised to discover he's a little bit on the spectrum. But it's part of what makes him unique and great, too. | |
![]() |
![]() OMG. Mark R! I was just about to type the same thing! |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:48pm
Mark R:
Jinx buy me a Coke! | |
![]() |
![]() HA! Consider yourself coked (oh, wait. That doesn't sound too good..) |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:50pm
Mark R:
No, man, it sounds great. But I'd probably have a heart attack at this point. | |
![]() |
![]() I think most interesting people are a little bit on the spectrum |
Wed. 11/28/18 1:57pm

![]() |
![]() I know circumflex from studying French |
