"Why will you take by force what you may have
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
quietly by love? Why will you destroy us who
|
|||
|
|
|

|
|
supply you with food? What can you get by war?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||

We can hide our provisions and run into the woods.

|
|
|

Then you will starve for wrongdoing your friends.

|
|

Why are you jealous of us? We are unarmed and
|

|

willing to give you what you ask, if you come

One record executive said to me

|
|
I can totally make you happy.

If you just sign here on the dotted line

I tol' him maybe that'll be just fine

For somebody else, but not for me,

I say no wanna be your zombie.
|

Oh no, sweetness of mine.

I don't believe in dotted lines.

You probably won't print this letter to the editor, but
|
|||
|
|
I think your review of the Grammys stinks.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I think all you do is get yourself in a mean spirited,
|
|||
|
|
hateful space and watch it with a notepad in your lap
|
|||
|
|
ready to slam every single artist no matter how good
|
|||
|
|
he or she is.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You hate everyone don't you? Or even if you don't you're
|
|||
|
|
willing to libel us til we want to cry. You're just like
|
|||
|
|
the corporate media no matter how much you bitch and
|
|||
|
|
moan about hating the media yourself.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Always looking for someones feeling to hurt.
|
|||
|
|
Everyone's a critic. You're probably just a
|
|||
|
|
crybaby because you don't have your own contract
|
|||
|
|
with a major label.

[ed note: the re-gifting bag you get for being
|
|||
|
|
nominated was valued at more than my house, lady.
|
|||
|
|
I paid for your consolation prizes manytimes over
|
|||
|
|
subjecting myself to those stupid ads and product
|
|||
|
|
placements during 3 1/2 hours of vomitous greedfest.
|

|

I can write whatever I want about it. Thanks for
|

your opinion nonetheless.]

COLUMN FROM THE PUBLISHER
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"You think of Bill O'Reilly describing himself
|
|||
|
|
as a 'working class guy,' this from an accountant's
|
|||
|
|
son who grew up in Levittown NY., the El Dorado
|
|||
|
|
of the postwar middle class."
|
|||
|
|
--Geoffrey Nunberg in his Sunday Times article
|
|||
|
|
"How Conservatives Pidgeonholed Those Poor Liberals."
|
|||
|
|
[easy reading if you're neither.]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
"Or listen to Ann Coulter who grew up in New Canaan,
|
|||
|
|
Conn., [I just knew there was something Ronnie James
|
|||
|
|
Dio about her!] and her paean to the New York's other
|
|||
|
|
boroughs:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|

'Queens, baseball games -- these are my people.'"

|
Why the prime anarchist is neither lib NOR con:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1) Drives a Volvo (must be lib)
|
|||
|
|
2) Drinks coffee plain (neocon)
|
|||
|
|
3) IQ over 100 (must be lib)
|
|||
|
|
4) Defaulted on Student Loans (must be GOP)
|
|||
|
|
5) Wears Birks allyearround (DNC/DLC for sure)
|
|||
|
|
6) Wears blue cashmir overcoat (republican!)
|
|||
|
|
7) Refuses to wear tie OR blazer (uh, neither)
|
|||
|
|
8) Comes from the working class (must be GOP)
|
|||
|
|
9) Disses work as classist (neither again)
|
|||
|
|
0) and the number 0 answer is:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Equally resents Bush/Lieberman/Hitler/LaRouche.
|
|||
|
|

|||
|
|
+) Bonus answer: Although he's tabled and
|
|||
|
|
given small talks at both Harvard and Yale,
|
|||
|
|
he was "educated" at neither, so he's not
|
|||
|
|
ALLOWED to be a liberal OR a conservative.

Newroz is coming, are you ready? Oh, you don't
|
|||
|
|
celebrate? Don't even know what it is? March

|||
|
|
21st. Soon enough it's time to leap over a
|
|||
|
|
large fire.
|
|||
|
|
That's all I'm saying for now.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I know, lets get the Turks and the Kurds to ruin
|
|||
|
|
their own economies fighting each other and our
|
|||
|
|
economy won't suck so bad.
|
|||
|
|
That is sooooo Bushian!

Any other cats out there we can tail-tie over

GRAMMYWATCH: Ever Following Through.
|

|
|
Antonio (L.A.) Reid has had several multimillion
|
|||
|
|
selling albums since he took over running Arista
|
|||
|
|
Records in 2001. [He] sums up his strategy in seven
|
|||
|
|
words: Beat Boybands And Preteen Girls To Death.
|
|||
|
|
And really quickly, what philosophy was the
|
|||
|
|
previous Arista-prez leaving behind resigning?

|

Beat Boybands And Preteen Girls To Death.

PRIME ANARCHIST LOOKS AT COLOSPGS SEXUAL
|
|||
|
|
HARRASSMENT(S) 1988-90.
|
|||
|
|
I honestly can't tell you which was a worse
|
|||
|
|
place for women in the early '90s. Fort Carson
|
|||
|
|
or Airforce Academy. I've eaten dinner and dated
|
|||
|
|
women at both. Terribly, I say it's a toss-up.
|
|||
|
|
Compare just the commissioned ranks and AFA is
|
|||
|
|
by far the worst. But factoring in the enlisteds
|
|||
|
|
at Fort Cartoon, and even stack Peterson AFB in
|
|||
|
|
with the Academy, it's about dead even.
|
|||
|
|
Essentially, both suck.
|
|||
|
|
Real bad.
|
|||
|
|
Each woman can tell you she was abused worse
|
|||
|
|
at her post than anywhere else imaginable. The
|
|||
|
|
Pentagon should take note of THAT instead of
|
|||
|
|
everything else they're obsessing over!

GEORGE BUSH'S PLANNED VICTORY SPEECH FOR '92.

My fellow Americans, I stand here before you proud to accept
|
|||
|
|
the honor and challenge of my second term as President of the
|
|||
|
|
greatest nation on earth and leader of the Free World. In the first
|
|||
|
|
four years, we completed our policy of containment, engineered a
|
|||
|
|
peaceful displacement of communism, and ushered in a New World
|
|||
|
|
Order.
|
|||
|
|
In central america, we helped install fledgling democracies whose
|
|||
|
|
governments regularly hold free elections. In Panama, we rid the
|
|||
|
|
hemisphere of a dangerous demagogue; in Nicaragua, which fell under
|
|||
|
|
the control of radical-nationalists, we restored democracy; and in
|
|||
|
|
nearby Cuba, we continue to work toward neutralizing Fidel Castro.
|
|||
|
|
Around the globe, especially in Eastern Europe, we helped newly
|
|||
|
|
liberated peoples to see the benefits of the market and privatization.
|
|||
|
|
In the Middle East I advanced the peace process by...

THE LAST HOUR IS FREE: Review Of An Art Museum
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Milwaukee Art Museum is a bargain at even twice the price.

Thank God they finished this megaopadoppadooza before the
|
|||
|
|
economy tanked, eh?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I'm looking over the middle 1600's today for free.
|
|||
|
|
I was in mainly to ask about what days/hours are
|
|||
|
|
free to residents because I'd heard there was a
|
|||
|
|
day but wasn't sure if you needed a drivers licence
|
|||
|
|
that said this town, or just this state. "Now," they
|
|||
|
|
told me would be free. It turned out every day the
|
|||
|
|
last hour they let anyone in. I don't even think they
|
|||
|
|
need your drivers licence. But don't quote me on that
|
|||
|
|
part, they may have let me through without just because
|
|||
|
|
I looked and sounded like I was willing to show if asked.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
So in the baroque section I saw the world's smallest
|
|||
|
|
Matisse, and almost the smallest Renoir. Yes, I've
|
|||
|
|
seen some tiny Renoirs in my life. In fact, I think
|
|||
|
|
when you have someone score your initials into a grain
|
|||
|
|
of rice, they have to send royalties to the Renoir
|
|||
|
|
family, that's how small he went way back when, but
|
|||
|
|
I digress.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Next up is a normal sized Monet. (don't ask, I'm being
|
|||
|
|
very subjective here. My opinion!) The one I'm looking
|
|||
|
|
at is a good size, but that's all I can say about it
|
|||
|
|
really. I'm not appreciating this one. Sorry. I don't
|
|||
|
|
have a good impression of the impressionists, let me
|
|||
|
|
tell you. What, were they squinting? (I've always wanted
|
|||
|
|
to type that!) Some Motherwells, yuck. Some of his
|
|||
|
|
worst if you ask me.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OK. I'm very catty today. I don't know why. I'm like
|
|||

|

|
|||
|

This one's worth the highest admin price all by itself.

I'll stare at this one once or twice a month until I
|

can get in to see Picasso's "Old Man And The Guitar"

Felix Gonzalez-Torres' Untitled (Veterans Day Sale) 1989
|
|||
|
|
A stack of large pieces of clean white newsprint saying
|
|||
|
|
only "Veterans Day Sale" centered in a tiny NYTimes font
|
|||
|
|
on each page. I'm assuming they all say this, but I
|
|||
|
|
don't dare lift one. He's got my sense of humor, so the
|
|||
|
|
second page prolly says something like, "Mana, you gotta
|
|||
|
|
get into everything, don't you?"
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Pardon me, but I totally do NOT understand Jenny Holzer.
|
|||
|
|
Don't get me wrong. I've seen a LOT of Holzers in my
|
|||
|
|
life so far. But I seldom understand her. I "hear" her.
|
|||
|
|
I just can't articulate any kind of an understanding. So
|
|||
|
|
I guess you could say these speak to me, but I just don't
|
|||
|
|
know what the heck they're "saying."
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There's a yellow LED installation of hers here. I got
|
|||
|
|
a kick out of the name brand of the light, "silent radio."
|
|||
|
|
I'm not following the text really. I know I can remark
|
|||
|
|
that it's moving fast enough to bother your brain and
|
|||
|
|
eyes.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
She "appears" in David Robbins' "Talent," as does Robbins
|
|||
|
|
himself so that just makes me think of some of Woody
|
|||
|
|
Allen's laziest works. OK, that's very subjective too
|
|||
|
|
but this whole collection so far seems just like so.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
So there.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OK, I'm typing this in on the road. I wrote all these
|
|||
|
|
notes on slips of paper in my pocket because they made
|
|||
|
|
me check my daypack. And there were some other pages
|
|||
|
|
with this one. I might not be able to find them. If
|
|||
|
|
I do they'll go after this paragraph. If I don't this
|
|||
|
|
is all you get I guess. Half a review.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Neat.

GATT: Guitar Anarchists' Tricks of the Trade
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
OPEN LETTER TO DERRICK SILVA:
|
|||
|
|
This morning I saw a pic of you on page 13 wearing
|
|||
|
|
gauze gloves. Your caption says you're 22, your
|
|||
|
|
hands were burned in the Warwick fire from pushing
|
|||
|
|
the bar to the HandicappedExit which saved how
|
|||
|
|
many lives??? and that you hope to play guitar
|
|||
|
|
again.
|
|||
|
|
Now I don't mean this in any way to belittle
|
|||
|
|
your pain, and it's not even a "misery-loves-
|
|||
|
|
company" scenario. I feel for you. This more a
|
|||
|
|
challenge really and attempt toward empowerment.
|
|||
|
|
Please continue playing guitar no matter how it
|
|||
|
|
seems to sound at first. Sure it'll seem rude and
|
|||
|
|
crude to start. But after all is said and done you
|
|||
|
|
are going to own a historically unique sound and
|
|||
|
|
style that no one could ever duplicate. I will
|
|||
|
|
give you two examples and send you on your way.
|
|||
|
|
When I was about 15 I met a man summering up
|
|||
|
|
the street from my boyhood home. He was on a
|
|||
|
|
porch and from half a block away I could hear
|
|||
|
|
a style oozing out of that home that Stevie
|
|||
|
|
Ray Vaugn or Eddie Van Halen could NEVER capitalize
|
|||
|
|
on.
|
|||
|
|
He played a very old Gibson with BlackDiamond
|
|||
|
|
strings but that wasn't where the sound was
|
|||
|
|
beginning really. He was missing his wedding-band
|
|||
|
|
finger.
|
|||
|
|
THAT is where it all came from!
|
|||
|
|
In G, B, and C blues he was able to get 2-3
|
|||
|
|
extra frets out of his pinky. In E and A he
|
|||
|
|
got 4-5!
|
|||
|
|
Now I would never cut off a finger just to get
|
|||
|
|
his sound, maybe some will. I won't. I "go with
|
|||
|
|
what god gives ya" so to speak. Au naturel, or
|
|||
|
|
something. Let me tell you, I've tried replicating
|
|||
|
|
this guy's sound with open tuning, slide, whammy,
|
|||
|
|
different bridges, everything. No go. I still try
|
|||
|
|
every once in a while to bring out a lick or two
|
|||
|
|
that sounds half as exotic as those I remember
|
|||
|
|
there. This recording-studio-reject from Camden,
|
|||
|
|
NJ had something no one in the industry could
|
|||
|
|
get. History.
|
|||
|
|
And lastly, just remember you still have hands.
|
|||
|
|
Your thumbs (if you've still got 'em) will relearn
|
|||
|
|
how to oppose your fingers, trust me.
|
|||
|
|
Victor Jara had his hands removed by machete in
|
|||
|
|
front of thousands of Chilean fans in a soccer
|
|||
|
|
stadium when Agosto Pinochet heeded Henry Kissinger's
|
|||
|
|
greenlight and overthrew Salvador Allende. I'm told
|
|||
|
|
the last words Jara heard before dying was a soldier
|
|||
|
|
saying, "let's see you play NOW, monkeyboy."
|
|||
|
|
He will play no more.
|
|||
|
|
Physically anyways.
|
|||
|
|
Victor's late wife Joan gave one of his guitars to
|
|||
|
|
an acquaintance of mine. A year ago last April I had
|
|||
|
|
the good fortune of hearing that guitar get played by
|
|||
|
|
both this acquaintance and by my friend David Rovics.
|
|||
|
|
I have to speak spiritually here of course, when I
|
|||
|
|
say that so many decades later Victor Jara's hands
|
|||
|
|
are still "at work."
|
|||
|
|
Every disaster, every mistake, every mutation is
|
|||
|
|
proof once again that the guitar is way more than
|
|||
|
|
the sum of its parts.
|
|||
|
|
Ooh, I ought to point out one extra example and
|
|||
|
|
then close.
|
|||
|
|
Black Sabbath's Toni Iommi.
|
|||
|
|
After their first great metal album, you'll hear
|
|||
|
|
something quite unique on that second and subsequent
|
|||
|
|
albums. Toni had cut off 2 or 3 of his left hand
|
|||
|
|
fingers while chopping a winter-supply of wood. After
|
|||
|
|
surgically reattaching them, his new sound was still
|
|||
|
|
not satisfactory to him, so he taught himself to play
|
|||
|
|
left-handed!
|
|||
|
|
Now perhaps "Black Sabbath" and "Wicked World" can't
|
|||
|
|
be attributed to his accidentaly inherited sound, but
|
|||
|
|
"Paranoid" and some of the others surely can.
