Ok, I’m on my way to Australia and this is my book. So far its frustratingly over-descriptive and way too self-consciously cool…. but I must add that at least it actually IS cool, enough. Cool in an exotic foreign poverty kind of way. Oooh. Deep.
By the time I get to Australia I’ll be long since done and will letcha know if its worth the fourteen bucks and/or the time it took to read it instead of something else.

(2006) Oh my god, it’s a veritable coup d’etat of great acting, directing, editing, writing, cinematograhy, thinking and above all genius casting. Wow, this is genius on every level. See it now if you didn’t then. |

(2002) If you’ve booked your elderly lead because he looks pathetic enough to play Don Quixote, or if you’re going to lease a nearly wothless tract of land to shoot in Spain when the Spaniard leasing agent says “well there’s only one leetle problem with it”, just walk away. |

In Seattle at Bumbershoot. We’re playing at the foot of the Space Needle. I’ll see if someone will send me pics of us playing with it in the background.
Slightly more interesting though is the gaming conference which is happening in a pretty big way too. I loved these great looking hipsters, one photographing the other whilst he hugs the eye of the beholder.
Yes, thank you.
I’m also gonna tell you how much I’m digging on my framing what with the four sided and eight sided and twelve sided dice adding such depth and dimension. OH I didn’t just slip that in there too. I’m on a roll…..ok ouch. Sorry.

(2003) There’s some great performances and some great clever writing here but ultimately someone should’ve lobotomized this writer before he was actually allowed to complete the “4th wall breaking” part of this mess. |

(2007) It took me a good 30 minutes befor I went “ew, what an awful idea for a movie” and turned it off. |
Avatar I reviewed when it came out. Update: “Dances With Wolves In Space”.

(1959) Even if it weren’t Gregory Peck, Anthony Perkins, Ava Gardner and Fred Astaire it would still be a tedious little overwritten doomsday flick from the nuclear-scare era. |

Last night’s French festival. Rainy and cold but damn it was fun. Rock tends to generate heat.
Finally London! Um, why isn’t it raining?

Sisters of Mercy were awesome last night. Andrew Eldritch marches around like a drill sergeant and sings like the coolest dude ever. Both of his guitarists are smokin too. Couldn’t get a great pic cuz they’re busy winning the award for most smoke machines. After the show Andrew assured me that they actually need more.

We’ll be on this stage in an hour. Belgium.
Here’s the bill for this festy. That’s Gang of Two on now. Then us. Then Sisters of Mercy.
I just woke up from three days in Amsterdam. Notice Motley Crue on this list? Tommy took a cab from here to Amsterdam to see our show and hang out for a couple days. Apparently it cost around 500 bucks. Love that guy.
