No Holy Mountain screening tonight, because I could not convince anyone to join me on my adventure. How tragic. I guess I could always rent it, or Nat could dub me a copy (I think he still owes me for the Can DVD). Either way, I’ve been pretty exhausted all weekend so it’s not a complete letdown. I can sleep a bit longer tonight.
I don’t have any exciting plans for this upcoming week, but hopefully some will form and I’ll accrue more awkward experiences to share with you. All three of you.
Music Time!
RULES for uninitiated noobs: With 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week I’m talkin’ about Satan: praising him, living in fear of him, and pondering over his domain. Several of the nine circles of hell and their occupants are accounted for here, referencing limbo, gluttons, lust, and heretics. The Mike Cooper track, although fan-fucking-tastic, has no mention of any evils. Although his singing “Sitting, bringing everybody down” sure sounds a lot like “Satan bringing everybody down!” Hence it’s inclusion. As always, these songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
