Did anyone see Beck Live at, I think Brixton Academy?, on Saturday night on ITV(or UTV)? It was only when I saw the credits that I realized he was playing with Lyle Workman, very cool!

Hope everyone is well. I had a great weekend - the highlight had to be taking part in a creative dance class for 2-5 year olds (well, parents are encouraged to join in). It will surprise no-one that I was a very good frog ('Ribbit'), but my dolphin was lamentably poor.

I heard BECK likes the Pixies.
Anyone hear BEck's version of BOWIE's Diamond Dogs. FRANK BLACK does a version of Diamond Dogs also.


In this weeks issue of Blender magazine there is an article with Spanish Teenie Boppers Las Ketchup. They are HUGE PIXIES FANS!

Also Austrialian teenie bopper Rob Levitt has a song called "PIXIES" on his last albums. One of the lyrics is "FRANK & KIM WOULD NOT BE LEADERS/SO KIM DEAL STARTED THE BREEDERS

Also, there's a band on Grand Royal Records called LADIES WHO LUNCH, they have an album call KIMS WE LOVE and they do all PIXIES covers.

Also, Post-Grunge rock group from Memphis called HAGFISHES have a song called "FRANK BLACK". One of the lyrics is "CHANGE YOUR NAME FROM CHARLES to BLACK/ PLAY YOUR GUITAR AND DON'T LOOK BACK"

You can buy any of these album at your local Record Shop

It's into the tuna nets with you, Andy! :-) So was the dolphin sound more of the "Eeeeeeeep!" or the "Kraaaaaaeeeeek" variety? Sounds like a fun weekend. (Z and I were in a music/movement class last year and had a good time until they changed locations to a room with a giant mirrored wall--she was so entranced with herself that she lost all interest in dancing around with her little scarf. Vanity, thy name is three year-old!)

Hi bazza! That Beck concert blew my tits apart!, unfortunatly it was on bout 3 in the morning but I was wide awake because thats about the time I got up that day! My friends went to see him at the first Witness but I missed it! Anyways Im listening to the female version of him right now, Solex, anyone ever hear of her, I think she's from Holland, really good weird sampley bopping music stuff! She did a really cool Stooges cover lately as well.

New people popping in the Henhouse - love it! Kluck kluck, kiddo's.

STILL no news - I imagine I will have SOMETHING to report tomorrow. As of now, we are at 2 calls each, for anyone keeping score. 15 love. Or something. I don't know tennis.

V.fun about the class, Andy, dear. It sounds like a blast! I wish we could hear that dolphin noise. I do a good rooster myself. Believe it.

I am cracking up at Zelda and the reflection, Sarah. We all need a little narcissm at times.

Catch you all on the flip-flop, as my three year old pal likes to say.

OOOPPS! How embarrassing, thanks for pointing that out:) but I do admit to having terrible spelling in my bio thingy. So I wish everybody who sails aboard the good ship Tampoon, may your Bishops always be fragrant and your chins always point true North! I heard from a lady friend of mine that the best place to hide your money if you think your going to be burgled is in a tampon box but I suppose that connotes all burglars are men?!

Hee-hee! "Tampoons." I love it. You should keep it, Irish Barry #2! Sounds like feminine protection for girl pirates. Or as Em says, "some kind of wacky submarine." Or an episode of PMS that is of hurricane/typhoon proportions. (I, for instance, feel that I am about to be swept up by a tampoon of incredible bitchiness. All around me should run for cover!) Yep, "tampoon" is my brand-new term for premenstrual rampages. Thanks!

"well the toilet went crazy yesterday afternoon,
the plumber he told me never flush a tampoon" Flakes - Frank Zappa

This is clearly not a typo or a premenstrual rampage but a secret tribute to Frank Zappa. Respect Therewererumours !

Oh ye, um, exactly:) Actually I think The Tampoons were a black vocal harmony group back in the 70's hee-hee!(I only have one Zappa album compared to your 500 probably!:) sorry)

But, Steve, I want to keep it! I'm not giving up "tampoon!" Like Frank Zappa has any use for the word anymore!

Only kidding, and of course I do respect Therewererumours. I'm just on a tampoon. = )

Didja get your stuff done?

I did get it all done and handed in, thought to a rather low standard. I have now been awake for 39 consecutive hours, all in the name of getting a degree.

No matter what its still a piss poor poker hand

Excellent... I am being offensive as usual... lots of topics to discuss lately... getting tired of talking about frank on the war and history... what will you be teaching?

I loved doing presentations at Uni... considered being a prof for a bit but it is on hold while I enter the real world... when it gets scary back to school...

I can talk a lot of shit and thus my presentation skills are pretty good... always had trouble with writing and gramer so relied on the presentations as well... the secret is take weird presentation topics and you can't go wrong...

What aspects of theatre... tech or structure/story?

Hmm, I never thought of it that way. I guess that's one way to get a cheap buzz. I'm sure the first two years of parenthood would have been a lot easier if I'd just considered it a prolonged hallucinogenic experience.

I was late handing everything in though... because of strange topics I often got extensions... in the right situation charm can work although when finished burning a dubie at the end of the semester the thought "did I learn anything and do my profs respect me" tends to cross your mind... after getting a degree I realized this was not that big a deal...

Ugh, I am just the reverse. Writing is no problem whatsoever, but hate the talking.

Mostly we'll be doing a history/lit. kinda thing, from 1800 to present. We'll read about 30 plays and a lot of history. I wish I could teach something less exhausting like acting or scene painting. At least I'll get to use my heretofore useless master's degree. Woo-hoo!

Tampoons works too kind of a weird semionic slip... wrote about a buddy pooping the question the other week... I would wager I am the worst speller in the board.
