at a coffee shop this morning, someone asked me the last CDs I bought.

1) the walkmen - bows and arrows
2) mercury program - a data learn the language
3) paul mcCartney - RAM (i think it's the record he made after the beatles ended)
4) morphine - best of morphine

playing them over and over and over and over...

NYC

Benefit for the Lightning Strikes Theater Company, with several actors, singers, including Mary Lee Cortes, again. Funny, never met her, now it's twice in a week. She's cool, I like her work. Turns out I know her husband, producer Eric Ambel. Alt rock guy.

variety show style, bad sound, but good crowd. i'll take it.

played:
springtime
daylight
happy

writers in the raw, asbury park, nj

w/val emmich, mary lee cortes, patrick fitzsimmons

asbury is hilarious. i love it there. it's always raining on the clowns' faces that are peeling off the walls along the beachfront. they drip in a sad way, and the streets are almost completely empty and shining.

harry's roadhouse was different, though. it's very new looking, and the place was full. people have been hearing 'grace' on WBJB, so it was great to give it to them live.

i passed the Saint, and a big ol' tourbus was parked outside, violating a major rock rule: never arrive in a vehicle bigger than the venue you're playing.
