I found my password again. who cares?
thanks for coming to the shows. I like music.
Have you ever tried buying all your clothes at truck stops?
no wonder I look like this.

Never, ever, ever buy anything larger than medium at a truck stop. Even if you are 6'4".

 

don't be fooled, he goes by many names: mother, ted, mother ted, sir ted drumsalot.

D2 got busted for giving drinks to a minor (aka Boy Soprano) and his female friend.

Yes it's true, we jog after the shows. Jog with us. You have to wait for us to pack up the equipment and merch first, then we go on a 10-15 minute jog. If you've got crazy jog ideas, meet us after the show with your maps and lead us. Try to top Austins jog to and into the state capital at 2am. maybe in DC we can go into the white house. maybe in montreal we can call a general strike. maybe in LA we can liberate people stuck in traffic. its fun to run in the streets, it brings back spontaneity and urban anarchy. my shoes are flat and its going to kill my back. just run.

thanks for the tea! what i really want is my warm genmaicha.

 

thank you to the texas jog sly and robbie foot destroyers of jogging dedications!!!!!!!!!

david had the idea of tour goals
both individual and collective
the xiu xiu tour goal is to buy (which we have now accomplished) a spanish language instrictional cd set and listen to it in the car 5 days a week
we did it for first time tonight
we are all at different levels of speaking and comprehension so it is funny and also in spanish
also david, ches and i are going to run after every show
we want to get people from the show to run with us
how bout it?
ches individual goal
transcribe a bethoven piece by ear
caralee
not to eat junk food
david
learn a flute piece with japanese flute notation. he says if you have any please bring it to him and he will look into your eyes
jamie
start at 50 crunchy style sit ups a day and make it 100
these are quaint and honest real american goals

 

somebody please help us:

can somebody download henry rollins reading "get in the van" and burn it to a CD and bring it to us? we have a van. i think we should be listening to it. but what we really want to do is play it inbetween bands at ever show of this tour.

i saw a kid with an exploited shirt. i punched him in the face. mike watt won't stop talking. i used to scoop ice-cream. get in the van.

hi
ummmm
so.....
what have you been doing?
oh. God i am really sorry that happened.
we are going on tour starting saturday
the dates are on the header under "eat me"
i mean they are under tour figs
we are touring with
THE CASIONTONE FOR THE PAINFULLY ALONE
THE KATIE EASTBURN
THE SUNSET RUBDOWN
THE SHEARWATER
they are all better now that we had our summit and subsequent follow up talks. no worries, peace will reign in the kingdom of zoron
i hope you come.

 

there have been 65,000 deaths of iraqis as a direct result of military intervention
there have been 600,000 deaths of iraqis since the war began due to bombings, sectarian violence, disease, starvation, etc.
there have been about 3200 usa military deaths.
it is the official policy of the us military not to conduct body counts.
so every dead american is then equal to 188 or 20 dead iraqis depending which number you consider the usa culpable for.
when you see a service person with no legs rolling down the block think of how many more people whose lives they have destroyed. any sympathy is a horror.

 

 

i do, i have two infact. i spend a lot of time everyday checking, maintaining, and obsessing over them. most of the time i feel truly disapointed. i hate supporting fox. but i dont ever buy any of the shit that they advertise. i do play the mini game advertisments including the shave britney's head and win a blackberry. oh boy. anyways every once in a while i get a very nice message from someone on the xiu xiu page that makes me realize its not so bad. today i got an invite to a very special myspace group:

http://groups.myspace.com/xiuxiurunsmylife

if you join this group im very flattered and very worried about you at the same time.

ps. thanks to you nina martini

 

Many microbats have various facial protuberances,used in echolocation,which make it hard cock to refer to them as "cute". Fruit bats don't echolocate and have large cocks designed to be efficient at twilight. Their bodys are plump and furry. They are so cute!! Combined head and body length is about 20cm and wingspan can be as much as about 90cm. you need lots of lube.
They live in subtropical and tropical areas. Ryukyu Flying Foxes living in Kuchinoerabu are the northernmost of all the world's flying foxes. In winter they become less active in the low temperatures and are difficult to find, but they don't hibernate.
Bats have four very long cocks and a short thumb to each wing. The wing membranes are attached to the fingers and to the legs. They have a claw on the second finger in addition to the claw on the thumb. These are used to manipulate fruit, cocks and leaves.
Fruit bats make audible sounds like "fuck me , oh you are the best!!!!!". When two individuals meet they hit each other with their wings on the ass and scream loudly. so hot. Large colonies are occasionally very noisy with monkey-like screams. As fruit bats roost in trees out in the open their loud chattering can be heard from far away., through the walls of your apartment.
Fruit bats feed almost exclusively on fruit. They crush the fruit to extract the juice and swallow the cum. The droppings are liquid. They look like bird droppings but lack uric acid crystals. They drop seeds in flight over a, spread, pink wide area, giving them a good chance of germination. Sometime they eat the V-hole and the nectar of the flowers of mescal,palm and garcinia and so help in pollination. When fruit and flowers are in short supply in the woods they also eat leaves. Fruit bats have a good sense of smell. Many tropical fruits and flowers that bloom at night have scents that attract fruit bats.
Fruit bats don't use echolocation and have keen vision. As they can't see in total darkness,. they fly using moonlight,starlight and townlight. During the day they roost in trees not caves. Sometime they drop to fours during the day.

There are few bat biologists so the life of fruit bat has not, as yet, been well studied. I have read that P.d.daitoensis mate in November and December,but I have watched them mating at the end of the year and into the new year. Babies are born in May or June. Their roosts are not always permanent. They roost in small groups or singly. Sometimes they roost in large colonies. Bonin Flying Foxes in Titijima Island have large fixed colonies from January to April. They wake up at sunset. When the sun sets and the sky darkens their voices are heard from the roost. About 30 minutes after sunset they assemble at the feeding site. For the following 2 or 3 hours they are very active feeding and chasing each other and God knows what else.. As night draws on they disperse and rest and cry in eachothers arms. They begin to return to the roost 1 hour before sunrise and go to sleep at dawn. Sometime ,when it is cloudy, they don't return to the roost until after sunrise.

 

pissing on my hands into my vitamin water and pouring it on the bus floor


we are all flowers. we are all artists.

life is art , whether you realize it or not.

we are all creating. we are all part of the creation that is happening.

we are all feeding ourselves with energy . feeding ourselves with experiences.

and everything that goes in , is interpretted and then it goes out.

in and out logically functioning vessels of energy.

we are all patterns of energy.

sometimes the patterns are too frustrating to deal with.

i believe that is a large part of the reason why i strive to be special.

i strive to make my life story as interesting as i feel it should be.
as interesting as i am brave enough to make it.

everything we do is in patterns.

we are just systems within systems . traffic . government. heirarchy.college.

just systems within systems part of bigger systems and bigger systems.

understanding that we are just patterns. i strive to be as unique of a vessel by living my life consciously as a life artist.

"art" is our established justification of self indulgement. to do what you feel is most interesting at whatever time you feel it is interesting, disregarding social properness.

but with the establishment of "art".

there is an established system of "art" and "artists".

and you can go to school to learn "art".

I need to live my life as a life artist. because it is the only way that seems to keep me motivated to live.

to create myself into as interesting of a flower as possible.

that is why "art"...., that is why life has always felt special to me.

I strive to be unique. I strive to be a special flower.



In art schools.

you have attached yourself to the establishment.

an established idea-ideas of what "art" is.


you have attached yourself to the establishment.
the establishment is feeding itself to you.
and they are reinforcing the establishment.
and you are reinforcing the establishment.
and you will reinforce the establishment.
and you are growing into the establishment.
and you are becoming the establishment.

you'are just learning precision.
techniques and skills.

none of this is wrong,good or bad. it just is.

patterns and techniques to communicate your energy.

but "art" is life. and in life there is no correct destination. that

is why life is amazing to me. it can go wherever you feel

you want to take it, and the feeling and interpretation of your creation is subjective.

because everything is energy.

and everything in this world is energy.

and energy can feel like anything.


so everything can feel like anything.

rainy days can make you feel happy.

sunny days can make you feel depressed.

and sitting in mcdonalds can feel euphoric.....








everything is pattern.
we are all artists.
we are all flowers exuding our energy.
it is not the precision of the patterns that makes your energy special.
it is the life energy behind the patterns .


anyone can learn patterns.
but it is the life energy behind the patterns.
behind the words.
behind the chords.
behind the strokes.
it is the life energy behind the patterns
that makes the artist stand out.
and it is each person's subjective interpretation that makes something special.


love.
mario.

Alamni

My mother had locked the doors of the car while she went into the liquor store and left my sister, my friends John and Almani and me in there. We thought it would be really funny if we started screaming as loud as we could. We were all around 5 or 6 years old and my sister was 3. It did not occur to us at all that anyone would hear us or what could happen. `

After a minute my mom came running to the car. She opened the door and just stared at us until we stopped. My mom in those days was not a person who was very calm or rational and I think that she could understand or relate to what we were doing. Eventually she did quietly say that it was very very wrong to scream for no reason. A man walking by had heard us and told her she should check on her kids. She went back into the store and we could see her talking to the man at the counter from where we were parked.

"Let's all stick eachothers dicks up eachothers butts when we get back to my house and dance in a circle," I suggested to my friends. They all thought it would be a good idea. My sister did not say anything. She either was ignoring us playing with her doll Baby Beth or did not understand what we were talking about.

A couple of years later I had thrown that doll into our pool. Nobody got it out and it floated and bumped against the side for the entire winter and began to look disgustingly alone. Its neck was twisted and dark and it was waterlogged. In the spring I could not take seeing it there anymore and I hucked over the fence onto the grass. My sister still has that doll now and its neck is still fucked up and leaning to one side. She is having a baby soon and I think she is going to give it to her daughter when she is born. I will think about my entire family leaving that doll to float in the pool for so long everytime I look down into my future neices cradle.

When my mom got back into the car I told her about our plans for the evening. She did not respond at all but when we got home she told John, who was a year older and lived next door, that he would have to go home. I am assuming she thought it was his idea. In his garage, a couple of months before that, he had given he these 3 really huge hickeys on the side of my neck and when my mom freaked out about it he tried to tell her that I had fallen down. I remember his older brother, who must have been at least 16 because he could drive, watching us do it.

Almani's dad had a recording studio at his house and my dad was a record producer
so I used to play over there with him while our dad's worked for days and days. In Almani's bedroom, he crammed a soft, grey rubber eraser in the shape of a bust of George Washington into my mouth. It was kinda big and it was an awkward shape so there was a ton drool spilling out over my lips and onto his bed sheets. His sister Sala was in the room too. She was about 4 and she started screaming, "That's nasty! That's nasty!" while Almani and I laughed and laughed which just made my drool spray out even more.

Later that afternoon we went up into his tree house in the back yard and decided that we were going to put eachothers penises in eachothers butts. Alamni took off all of his clothes and started chanting, "I'm gonna strip! I'm gonna strip!,"his tiny erection was bouncing up and down in time with his chant. I had never heard the word strip before and I did not know what he was talking about. He turned around and I pulled up my sweater and pulled my underpants down to the midddle of my thighs and tried to stick my penis up his butt while he stood in front of me. He was taller than I was and I had a hard time getting it in. My mother had recently explained to me what it meant to be circumcised and said that
I was but that my brother was not. I stood on tip toe to look over his shoulder and see if he was circumcised but he was too tall.

We tried to make this work for a little bit then we stopped and I turned around. He resumed his chant of, "I'm gonna strip, I'm gonna strip!," and put his dick in my butt. It did not hurt and I did not expect it to. He did it to me for way longer than I did it to him. Then we put our clothes back on and jumped out of the window of the tree house and crashed onto the hard ground and weeds over and over.

Almani's mom called us to come and eat lunch and told us we were going to get hurt jumping out of the tree house and made us stop. We ate Spagetti-Os on the picnic table in the back yard. One of the smaller O's had fallen on the ground into one of the larger O's.
At the time I was sure that I had seen that before and I think it was the first time I had felt deja vu.

When I came home that night, I could still feel the warm ghost of Almani's dick in my butt. I sat on the orange and blue macrame couch that my hippie parents had in the living room and told my mom that I had done something that I did not think I should have done. She asked me what it was. I said that I did not want to tell her. She just stared at me.

the worst music journalist ever i mean the best
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

jamie and i dialogued about boredom. he said my views were elitist b/c they don't include the oppressed. i have a new argument: in boredom you choose nothing - you choose neither life nor death - you choose inactivity. being in a privledged life w/ time to do nothing you can make this choice and nothing happens. if you were in, lets say, in an oppressed state, if you make the choice to refuse to do anything, you would be making the choice of death (can we call it suicide, i don't know?). if you are trying to survive, and you make the choice of "i'm not going to do anything" you don't survive, you die. if you have a family to feed, they don't eat, they die. yes, they can choose to do nothing - but that state of boredom/nothing/bliss/emptiness is not the same because it immediately becomes destructive.

how is that? is that good? what do you think? talk talk talk talk.....

tiny rant about the party at davids house
if you are between the ages of 18 and 29 please for the love of God make up some new music. the 1980s are stunning and they will always be there but the few remaining days of earth needs you to push yourself beyond beyond beyond beyond

i will do ANYTHING for you if you do

posted by Jamie

holy shit... there is so much new amazing party music out there. Not to be a snob (read: to be a total snob), but maybe if you didn't live in Oakland...

I am going to make you a mix tape - and you will throw a party - and your buns will be tired from dancing in your kitchen. Party Jams is the only genre of music I can listen to these days.

also - happy birthday.
