I ...


I just got home from Denver ... where I attended the BEST FUCKING CONCERT THAT COULD CONCIVEABLY EXIST IN THIS PLANE OF EXISTENCE. Wow. Blew my mind. It was Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains. Yes, that means Les Claypool on bass, Buckethead on guitar, Bernie Worrell (of parliament funkadelic) on keyboard and random strange intruments, Brain on drums (and assorted other percussion, like one of those kiddie dinging keyboard thingies, and a gong..) and some chick called Gabby Lala or somethin, who opened for them and also joined in on some parts of the song (i say song because this show ran like a jamband.. one continuous song for 4 hours) with things like a sitar and an accordion. Are you impressed yet? To learn a little more about it - http://www.lesclaypool.com/c2b3/ So, collaboration of brilliant artists of different styles, all IMPROVISED on the spot. Word.I tried to capture as much of it as i could by calling my brother and recording it on his answering machine. He started to get pissed after a bit because its 2 hours later in CT and he was tryin to sleep, and everytime the machine cut me off, i just called right back and continued on recording. Aside from the fact that i still have no friends so i went completely alone, and also when i got back to my car my rear bumper was dented, covered in blue-black paint, and my tail light out ... i had an absolutely pimpin time. The only thing that could have made it better would be to have added a Trent Reznor or a Mike Patton. Mmmmmmhmmm.

Have you heard Bjork's newest album? Mike Patton is on a great deal of it. It's an entirely a capella album (well, for the most part). He does some really cool deep voices and so forth. See here for more info.

from the webpage it looks like he doesnt have too big a part (tho i kinda sorta sometimes like bjork anyways)... do you own it? does do he do more than growl for 10 seconds?

Yes, I own it, and until recently had the whole thing posted up, and yes, he does have more than a bit part. She apparently was quite taken with his vocal talents. When I get home, I'll see what I can do about getting you something nifty to listen to. As for the album, I really think that she's dangerous because this album is so different than anything else going on right now; but that's been her way for as long as she's been recording. It's a good album, probably underestimated by people who aren't fans, and that's about the only way I can say that I like it but others mightn't. :)
