Oh Lord, you know that I can hardly wait To meet that sweet by and by And now I see those pearly gates – I’m gonna rock them golden stairs when I die. I don’t appreciate the words that you spoke last night You said your mind was like a pond when the birds take [...]
Dear Conrad
In the filtered orange light, Through the canopy of leaves, I found him laying in the street, On a Boston summer’s night Don’ t you try to make me stand Don’t you take a soldier’s pride Well I’m a stranger to my child And an orphan to my land Well I looked him up and [...]
Lady Drama is sorry, but not really.
Lady Drama has the strength of 10 men, but suffers from severe narcolepsy. Lady Drama does not know fear, but it does experience frequent misgivings. Lady Drama can beat up Chuck Norris, but not Grover Norquist. Lady Drama is charming with your parents, but violent with your furniture. Lady Drama thinks macaroons are overrated. Lady [...]

He told us not to eat that.” “You want some?” “Yeah.” It [...]

All you folks with “jobs” and “responsibilities”, your dreams have come true. The New York Times calls this “…the most highly anticipated show of the 4th week of January in Seattle’s University [...]
Tractor Pics
Righto… we are loving the Tractor these days. Many thanks to Bob (our excellent sound man) and the rest of the Tractor crew. To the stupendously happy crowd who stayed out on a Tuesday night, we salute you. This, right here, is what it’s all about. (Also: WATCH THE VIDEO. Thanks to Jen Burke for [...]
Their memories are short.
Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions — who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this band has already done; what sweet-ass musicians can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage. What the [...]
Imagine you a tranquil deep.
. Imagine you a tranquil deep, with nary cloud nor gale All atmosphere is inward drawn, so seldom to exhale But there! A tiny heresy! A swell upon the brine! Wherefore stirs this turbulence, and from what tortured clime? ••• Look on these ever-barren waves — a hollow spear arriv’d And lo, some ragged [...]
