Lightning Rod a la carte

[firsty]

listnin to it right now. very v v NICE.

[Lightning Rod]

thanks for listening, sean

just something that I do in the evenings

[firsty]

i like especially thelonius punk and southern man. good stuff. i wish i could sing like that. like anything. but i like it, it's good.

[Lightning Rod]

Felonius Punk was done in a real studio and String Man
the rest are basement recordings

[tinkerjack]

Leave me alone I am busy
listening to first track, just ended,
I almost jumped in at southern man but my conscience did not bother me so I am begining at the begining.

thanks maybe it will help me settle down here, I have not hit a lick this week, I love wolves, even dire wolves, but only through a telescopic lens not at my door

cold weather, thinking about those Valley winters up there. Reading weather.

i really like it all, i like the classical takes, i like it all. somehow in my mind's narrative i heard your voice differently. stupid me. you cats should hop a jet this weekend and bum with me and pel in the bowery.

[Lightning Rod]

voice is a peculiar thing

we have our written voices and our spoken or sung voices

voltaire said that that which is too stupid to be said can be sung.

i really should learn to sing, then, indeed.

Wish we could make it. Hope you two enjoy! One day, we'd love to meet you.

I don't have "virtual albums" like LR does since I haven't created web pages of the recordings I've done and we've done together but in lieu of us making an appearance in NYC, I'd be happy to send you and Pel one of the CD's I've recently put together of some of my piano music, spoken word, a couple of songs, and some collaborations with LR. I have an extra one sitting on my desk. It's called "Perimeters." Just send me your snail mail address and it's on the way.

[firsty]

or even better burn the tracks to mp3 and email em to me. that way, we could have em in time to listen in the car. woo-hoo! come to think of it, i do have to make a few more traveling cds for the ride.

will send snail mail also via private msg.

[Doreen Peri]

Great! Just send snail mail by pm or email and in reply, I'll also send you some links to mp3s which are online, as well as put the CD in the mail.

It's nothing fancy. Basement recordings... like all the links of LR's, too. We just stick a cheap Radio Shack mic in the back of the mac and push record using audacity.

And just remember (as I've told others)... a CD is a wonderful thing because it can double as a frisbee, a coaster, or a Christmas tree decoration! lol... and right on time, too. This one even has christmassy colors on it. Ha!

Hope you have a great trip to the big apple. As Ronnie said... say hi to Moonshine if he's still there. The guy's a trip! Ask him to do his piece about food for ya!

Feeling like a mushroom man today, my government keeps me in the dark and feeds me bullsh*t

Magic mystical mushroom

On this humble pedestal..

Azure mountains and a city

I couldn’t tell
Past or future
Heaven or hell

I swear I really couldn’t tell

All the snakes were blue
And morphed into the snake goddess who danced for me
She beckoned me to the sapphire fountain
I drank my fill
And closed my eyes
And said Bring it on.

foam-born aphrodite
when KRONOS (Cronos) had cut off his father’s members, he tossed them into the sea. The immortal flesh eventually spread into a circle of white foam... from this foam, APHRODITE was created

Athene, another meddler in the Trojan War, had given Diomedes the power to see the immortals on the battlefield. She advised him (Iliad, book 5, line 129) to avoid all the gods except Aphrodite, “her at least you may stab”.

ZEUS advised her, No, my child, not for you are the works of warfare. Rather concern yourself only with the lovely secrets of marriage... (Iliad, book 5, line

I was in bed with Penelope when lightning struck, the first thing she had asked me to do was rearance the furniture in her bed room. I moved the bed near the window. It was all so sweet, but Ulyseses was such a war hero I felt bad. Went up to Grants tomb in NYC and lit a candle for Robert E Lee.

Me and Diomedes had a good cry, cause you don’t know what you got till its gone, just a stab in the dark

Clay this may be ala carte, but it is a full meal. Inventions two and three something for me to chew on while I hook myself to my bionic pancreas.

Going through the play list, got to leave it here for now. Gracias

Snakes on Everything
Someone looking out for me
You can step right up and show yourself if you will
It seems like I've been hiding from my friends too long
You can take over for a while -- I need the rest
A chance to laugh it off
I ain't made sense in so long -- I almost quit trying


Inventions 1, 2, 3
Inventing meanings to inventions

I am a yo yo of dominance and submission
I am the king of the well intended
The profligate rose
Singing in the wind

My license to steal is still enforce
Just look at what I have stolen here.
My license to kill or be killed has a motor cycle endorsement
Pirate breeze is a breath of fresh air at gun point



I am the king of the road
But before I can ride
I got to get high
To see my pretty Alice in every headlight
But not for long
