Thank you much. I'll d my best. . .

Can you wait til the contest?

Yes sir, Mr. sledgbrainerd. Anything you say.

The 1992 Television album was suprisingly good, actually, but its a bit like the situation I find with Portishead now. Their new one is interesting, has some great moments, and all the ingredients that made them what they once were but it still comes as a disappointment. This is due in part to the fact that Dummy had such a catacylsmic effect on me that anything after that was bound to suffer in comparison. It was the same with Marquee Moon. That is si wonderful that it was always going to be hard to live up to. I will listen to any new Television release though, just in case. I think the exception to this rule is Bowie. He has had this brilliant ability to reinvent himself countless times that kept successive releases fresh and interesting.

Well yeah when you say it like that it sounds dirty.

P.S. You are such a celebrity ;)

Thank you, I feel honored to be noticed by such an accomplished mixer.

I'm in class being naughty? Hahaha. Does it sound dirty?

I've been spotted. I must go. Talk to you later ;)

Hahahahaha. You slipped on some spilled beans? Oh no!

I can see you. I'm in class being naughty.

Crime & The City Solution was Mick Harvey's band. Harvey was with Cave in The Birthday Party and the first ten years of The Bad Seeds. The first Crime albums featured several current bad seeds, and I think the last one was just Harvey. Mick Harvey was also involved with Einstende Neubaten, and I think Cave recorded with them too.

Charley Patton is always a must, and my favorite (over and above Robert Johnson) is Son House. 'Deathletter' can't be beaten in my book. \I love Barbeque Bob. I think there are only 8 known tracks by him, but they are wonderful. Not Delta, but very wonderful also is Lightnin' Hopkins. I find that the leap from him and John Lee Hooker to Cave, Mick Harvey, etc is a very logical one. Have you ever listened to Einstende Neubaten and Crime And The City Solution by the way?

What I find very very cool is that although you and I have pretty different musical tastes, there is a point of convergence, namely that punky nasty bluesy music that the likes of The Black Keys, Cave and Jack White put out on a good day.

and what do they mean?

My dog is very hamburger is better

YOU SO EVIL!

YOU TURNED YOUR DOG INTO A HAMBURGER AND THEN ATE HIM???

my dog is a hamburger?

mi perro está rompiendo el viento

I just ate. Was that description really necessary?

Just so you know, i'm imagining something out of ren and stimpy now when i talk to you on here.

Hi Mate, I have been out of town. Had to rush to San Diego to see my Sister In Law who was on life support. She is doing better now so we are back. I have the Racounteurs all set up and ready to play later on this evening. I had my Mother In Law in the car and she finds anything to the left or louder than George Strait to be unacceptable. I will let you know later, and I will also have a go at your mixtape. Cheers

Your body must be really out of proportion
