almost forgot to write today! Deerhoof was awesome, as you know. we've talked about all that already. today's kinda blah. rainy cool and gray. i've gotten myself into a deconstruction process with a song that needed revitalizing. it's coming along okay but it's presenting an odd set of challenges... time suspension, continuity, does-this-really-work, etc. i'm trying to mold it toward the way i've been playing it on guitar for Karola's dance projects, free and open, but keep the pop aspects in tact too. i've always felt the recorded version lacked a little in surprise. hopefully, if i can pull it off, (or at least meet the idea half way), the new end result will be something a lot more intriguing.
apologies. i haven't put any thought into what i might post today and i'm kinda holding out on a couple songs until right before leaving. plus i've been listening to nothing but Deerhoof and readers of this page (lurkers, voyeurs) are probably sick of hearing about them by now. so what's the first thing that pops in to my head? honestly, it was I'm Gonna Booglarize You Baby (and i will, rest assured) but this is more appropriate for the bittersweet anticipation of our wonderful reunion.
LRV, b
