played a lot of covers including "don't fear the reaper" (w/ anthony singing
backup) "silly love songs", joy division's "love will tear us apart", and
sonic youth's "teenage riot", which was really good! rhp also played some new
stuff including that making paper sounds song...mark did the encore all by

Count me among those who think Dif Juz are great.  Out of the Trees (a
compilation of earlier EP's) is even better than Extractions--i just wish they
would've released OotT on CD too instead of tacking 4 of the tracks on the end
of Extractions.

To hell with the whole lot of you then. I am flippant toward the
concept of karma because it is fucking ludicrous enough that I have no
problem making light of it. I suppose your sanctimonious tone regarding
my own views is not vulgar?

Yadda yadda yadda. I call it mysticism. Not too often one sees this sort
of an outraged emotional response over science, eh?. It's been a while
since I was called 'vulgar' for attacking a bit of quantum theory.

What, are we requiring everyone in the world to believe in everything
these days? It would certainly cut down on arguments, but think of how
boring we'd be. Even the White Queen could only manage _six_ impossible
beliefs before breakfast.

Nuffa this quantum mystic hoohaw! I too thought it was nifty until I went
to college and did the math. What you're referring to is a connection
between low-level quantum states of low-level particles (which can be
explained in other ways than some kind of mystic universal
intertwingledness) not some kind of moral/ethical fate or retribution.
You might as well say that the law of gravity (phrased as "what goes up
must come down") is the same concept as karma, only people have more
familiarity with gravity so it'd be more difficult to get Nu Agers to
marvel at it.

I know e already zapped you on this one but it's too delicious. India is
certainly one of the top three countries I can imagine using nuclear
weapons in the near future (the other two being China and N. Korea, both
with strong Buddhist subcultures beneath the Taoism and official
atheism.) Anyhow, Bell's theorem was discovered _after_ the development
of the atomic bomb; it's not very relevant to nuclear weaponry. It does
wonders for selling palletloads of books to Western wannabe mystics,
though.

ObMusic for those who read this far: Surely Jack Dangers was doing a lot
more on "Storm the Studio" than stringing samples together. Certainly
there are a lot of them, but a lot of the foundation, e.g. the great
basslines on "God OD", are original, right?

        please read the following passage i just pulled down from
        a FAQ on quantumgoodies:

   Wavefunction obeys a deterministic wave equation at all times. All
   possible outcomes of a measurement or interaction are embedded within
   the universal wavefunction....although each observer, split by each
   observation, is only aware of
   single outcomes due to the linearity of the wave equation.

  The world appears indeterministic, with the usual probabilistic
  collapse of the wavefunction, but at the objective level, which includes all o
tcomes,
   determinism is restored.

   Some people are under the impression that the only motivation for
   many- worlds is a desire to return to a deterministic theory of
   physics. This is not true. As Everett pointed out, the objection with
   the standard Copenhagen interpretation is not the indeterminism per
   se, but that indeterminism occurs only with the intervention of an
   observer, when the wavefunction collapses.



        jens and his buddies at the Center for Right Thinking
        intervene with their big ole' egos swaggering, plugging
        a big alpha-male 'self' into the equasion: a relation
        to the universalwave which assures the constipated
        end result that they crave.  this gives them power
        (selfimportance),

        which placates the ever-strengthening ego and now,
        snuggled into a mutual-masturbation pact with the
        blow-up-doll version of themselves, they 'just cant
        help' but convince themselves that their sick little
        system isnt corrupt.

        doing the math on a jens-o-matic calculator, you
        get your answer tailor made for you!  CAUSE ITS
        RIGHT. CAUSE I KNOW IT IS.

        as i remarked privately to 'e' earlier today,

         the regime in India is as morally bankrupt as its british
         predacessor, and has nothing at all whatsoever to do with
         traditional spiritual schools of belief other than exploiting
         them for the purpose of enslaving the masses. no new tale
         to tell there--a government which refuses to acknowledge
         or represent its subcultures? welcome to america.
         the pakistanis wouldnt have kicked _my_
         ass, cuz im a white anglosaxon (former) protestant living
         in michigan. my point was simply that the Powerful
         compartmentalize  'science' and 'religion' for the purpose
         of the wholesale destruction of the planet at a profit,
         exploiting the same 'technology' which could so easily
         set us free.


        QT is the frontier, the mother of metatheories, and
        will be when harnessed either the kundalini express

perfectionism...2 encores and some explosive versions of Violaine and

Wednesday night)...

rilkean heart
half gifts
violaine
pitch the baby
one of the tishbite B-sides (forgot which one)


enkore eins:
pandora
pur

enkore zwei:
blue bell knoll



But, can someone please tell me the name of that godawful blues bar opening
act, "Spain" I think it was? I am very open-minded about music in general,
but I really would have rather heard a death-metal opening act than be
subjected to a set that lasted almost a fucking hour of the most boring
pretentious minimalist blues-rock that I have ever had the displeasure of
bearing witness to. Really, there is absolutely no originality to this type
of music; at least on the new Oasis album there were some interesting parts
and some distortion or something.

Oh well, guess I have to bring a walkman to the NYC show or else lose my
place at the front for the Cocteau Twins (never!)

Just 3 more observations:

* e and I were at least able to avoid direct ad hominem insults. Daniel,
as he has before, leaps right into slurs on my character. Why? I have no
idea. I've never met him, he has no idea who I am (and vice versa). I
might be more offended if his attacks weren't ludicrously off target (I
don't think anyone's ever accused me of being an Alpha Male before!)
  If nothing else, it keeps it more fun if we allow slamming belief
systems but not individual people. Whatever happened to debate as an
intellectual process?

* What does some quoted stuff about the many-worlds interpretation (which
I personally favor) have to do with refuting the substance of what I
said? Many-worlds is completely un-Buddhist -- if any quantum event that
can happen does happen, there is no room for fate or karma.

* I don't think I'm contradicting the FAQ; I've never seen any harm in
brief digressions from the Topic At Hand as long as they're not a
particular category of digression (e.g. cookie recipes) that we've gone
into many times already.

Hello...

Someone who is "very open-minded about music in general" wrote...

>>But, can someone please tell me the name of that godawful blues bar opening
act, "Spain" I think it was?<<

Yes it was Spain. For what it's worth I liked them (though am still insure on
their name). Who cares I know, but this is Josh Haden's (brother of Petra and
Rachel "That Dog." Haden). They sounded like RHP meets Eric Clapton (and
Matthew Sweet on downers). If you hate Eric Clapton, but like RHP, you'll
still probably hate Spain.

Other news: Seefeel's "Quique" was named for the kick-drum track on the
mixing board (named "quique"...this was the subject of some discussion on the
list a while back). Seefeel will record a new LP after this Twins tour. This
may possibly released on EastWest in the US (which makes Seefeel labelmates
with Screwy Amos and several rap acts...I like rap). Seefeel will finally
tour the states. Mark Clifford did not DJ after this show. He played during
with the Twins, but may DJ after some other shows.

The Cocteaus are brilliant live. The version they play of "Rilkean Heart" is
a blend of the LP and "Twinlights" versions as is "Half-Gifts". And...despite
the addition of only one other guitarist on this tour (Mitsuo Tate), Robin
Guthrie still does almost nothing, although he's actually been lurching when
he plays. ROCK ON!!!

Matter of factly yours,

Roy

what a disappointment it was that mark didnt dj after.  i waited after the
show (like a dope) for something to happen and i finally got the drift when
they lined all the folks with backstage passes up in a firing squad style and
ordered the rest of us losers out.

They were great live.  Very enjoyable show.  I probably saw you there
Roy...where was the fucking air conditioning?  Had I actually paid the $24
each for tickets, I would have been pissed that it was 120 degrees in the
coolest part of the theatre.  Liz is so thin now.  Last time I saw them (2
years ago) she was slim, but this time she looked like a different person
(not that i could tell from the very back of the room). Her voice was
spectacular as usual.  I would comment on Spain, but i totally missed em.

Amen on that, Brother Roy, truer words were ne'er spoken!  As much as I really l
ke the
minimalism and the overal atmosphere of the Spain album, it's those horrible, ho
rible,
horrible whitewashed'n'sanitized blooz-rawk guitar bits that turned the whole CD
into
unlistenable pablum!  Shoot the lead guitarist, and I think their next album sho
ld be
actually good, methinks.

The new Trembling Blue Stars album, on the other hand, is quite fabulous regardl
ss.  I
find it amazing that the entire album of fourteen songs seems to have been writt
n and
recorded almost entirely for the benefit of one ex-girlfriend.  Bob Wratten is a
poet of
epic magnitude, no doubt.  Buy, buy, buy.

Cheers,
