Did you notice the Y2K bug on the message board? HA HA HA that
was funny. It's fixed now though so don't get too excited.
I have to tell you all the things I didn't tell you before. And
I have to do it while I'm cooking dinner, and before I go to Joel's
show out in Ballard. And I've been promised a party afterwards
filled with Cuban girls who want to be in the movies, if you know
what I mean, so I've got high hopes. But I mustn't burn the rice!
Okay, dinner is through. Whether or not I'll make it to Ballard
is anyone's guess, but I think I'm going to try.... Ha! Right.
Never mind, it's late. These damned little projects. The trouble
is, I finally got the tour journal up-to-date. Now I don't have to do a thing to it until March
23rd! Because that's when we're playing with Cobra Verde and the Downer Trio at the Crocodile. I hadn't mentioned it yet, but I think it's high time. It'll
be a shoe-poopin' good time!
So the real news is that we've recorded a new record. We finished
it in Chicago last time we were there - in early December - and
Tim and Steve mastered it at Abbey Road in late December or early
January or something. It sounds good. Where's my damned CD? If
I had it I'd record a little and put it up here, but I don't have
it. I'll track it down - actually, I think we just got the mastered
version back from Touch&Go, so maybe I'll get one of those tomorrow. I am sure that you
will like the record. It has some golden moments. It is supposed
to come out in June. We still don't know for sure what it's going
to be called; if you have any grand ideas, let us know.
I have to go now. Really I do. I know I will not make it to Ballard
tonight. I am on a budget!

I hope you like the fancy new look. I accidentally erased some
funny shit trying to make this new look. I'll try to come up with
some funny shit later to make up for it.
Oh - the message board works now. I don't know if anyone noticed,
but it was fucked up for a while. Isn't it nice that I have this
little project, and I can break things and fix them and stay busy?
I feel like a retired couple.

I spent so much time on this website today. First I wrote in the
tour journal, catching up. Then I wrote a whole bunch of shit
on this page, many paragraphs, funny funny stuff. Then I started
redesigning some shit. Then I got carried away I guess. Then I
copied a new one of these files from one place to another, and
when I did this I copied over all the new shit I wrote and I saw
it as soon as it happened and I just moved on. But let me tell
you. Let me tell you how sad I am. One of the things I said in
what I wrote was how lousy my memory is, and that if I didn't
write all this shit down it'd be like it never happened. So when
I lose it, oh, it's like losing a whole piece of my life. It's
late and I'm feeling a little melodramatic but boy what a bummer.
I'm sure it's happened to you and it's happened worse but what
a nasty ....
Okay, enough of that. I've changed things, I'll keep at it. Read
the tour journal for new stuff! I'll write some real shit here
after I've calmed down some.
01-22-2000
Sorry everyone! Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! Oops! I had some problems
with my server! Ha ha! Sorry about that! Hopefully next time I
have any troubles it won't take six weeks to fix it.
Everything's not working just yet. There's no message board. I'll
try to have it up by the end of the day, or the weekend, or in
a few weeks. I'll do my best, I really will, to keep everything
moving smoothly.
Now leave me alone! I'll write more later, for now I'm going to
give myself a congratulatory champagne bubble-bath.

I haven't updated this thing in ages! I'm a dork!
We're playing at the Lounge Axe next week - on the 17th! Friday! And the Lounge Axe is closing
soon, moving that is if all works out well, so you should all
go. The Lounge Axe is located in Chicago at 2438 North Lincoln
Avenue. And for those of you saying to yourselves, "fuck that
shit! These guys practice about twice a year! They're gonna suck
shit! I'm stayin' in Muskegon!" - fear not. Tim and I are going
to practice on Saturday. And later, in Chicago, we're going to
practice with Andy. And we're all going to listen to the records
so we remember how the songs go. Be proud of us! We'll be great,
I tell you!
We'll also be finishing up the new record - tentatively called
"my erection is the antichrist" - while we're in Chicago. It will
be better than biting the balls off of adolescent sheep, which
is what I currently do for a living. Anyhow, is there news? Really?
News? Is there? Is there any news? I'm sure there is. Oh! I went
to Chicago for a big ball-biting seminar a couple weeks ago. It
was a hoot, I hung out with Andy and Jon Lee, who's now in Seam.
We'll be touring with Seam, a Vancouver-Seattle-Portland tour,
in January. That will be a real hot-rocket fun-fest. It will!
Stop fucking with me!
Don't forget to come to the Chicago show. You always forget, and
it always pisses me off. Oh! And don't forget to come to the damned
Milwaukee show, either! It's on Saturday night. I'll find out
where (I thought it was at the L'il Poodle-Humper, but I think
I was wrong) and let you know.
Do not forget it.
