Music: Bread & Circuits at the Goleta Fest, 1998

Perhaps we can consider this an extremely late addendum to the note I posted years ago about the Bread & Circuits set at the Goleta Fest in 1998, eh? A while back, I finally scanned some photos that had been sitting in an old shoebox for years, including these shots of Chuck and Mike, and I thought other folks might be interested in seeing them as well. Perhaps I'll post some of the other stuff I found soon. In the meantime, enjoy, and here's a link to "Letter From Chase," from their record on Ebullition: "There are questions, simple questions / they do not want you to ask / should you choose not to choose / the least resistant path..."

May Day 2011

Happy May Day! The last four months have moved with unsettling speed. I know that you've heard this before, but I really am resolved to post with more frequency. For now, a scene from Rude Boy, one that made a big impression on me when I was younger: "I've just thought about it a lot, and I just think there's nothing... there's nothing there. You can get all the Rolls Royces, all the dough, all the country houses, all the servants you want, and I just think there's nothing at the end of that road, no human life or nothing, and that's why I just don't want to go that way. That's why I think that it's all of us or none."
