Mar. 28th, 2003 12:34 pmI'm such a bastard. *smiles evilly*
But I've been listening to les pixies all day. I love charles' voice, and joey santiago's guitar. It's always SO fun to go to a show, and all the people my age are total pixies junkies. And the young ones don't know, but the old people, they understand, to paraphrase Howlin' Wolf.
MMM. I'm really tempted to go to coachella, if only to see der stooges mit james newell osterberg out front. Is anyone else as stoked as me that not just the Ashetons will be in the band, but MikeWatt will be on Bass???? I really wish Iggy would decide to tour with this outfit, not to say that Iggy and his Trolls won't be a motherfucker live, but damn....it's been twenty five years or so...twenty seven? since this classic lineup, minus williamson, has toured. I wonder if James thinks about quitting that computer job, getting some coke, and hitting the road? I know I'd be tempted. Can you imagine being James Williamson, sitting in his office, and some kid walks in, one of the IT guys, sporting an old Iggy shirt, like my Metallic KO X 2 shirt, and getting that little bump of adrenaline, like someone just hucked a five gallon bottle that used to hold apple juice at the stage? I mean, your loss Homesick James, but still....I hope he goes and sees the band.
Would they be huge now? Maybe.

-Someday we will have coffee, I do believe.

But then, I still want you to come back to the City so I can take you for real deli and hot chocolate.
