Ireland Kyle and sheep in no man's land

Missing home. Being nostalgic. Ireland was bewitching.

Sarabeth Tucek Interview on her upcoming album.

I never received or took any photos for this interview so I stole this one from the wonders of google.


LM: So you’re working on an album with Ethan Johns, how is that going, being that it’s your debut?

ST: the record is going really well. Ethan is great, very inspired and soulful. he has added alot of dimension to the material through various instruments and he's a great player too so i not only have a great producer and engineer but a musician that can exercise his ideas. it is also being co-produced by the wonderful Luther Russell.

LM: “Something for you” is really a beautiful song. How did you and Brian Jonestown Massacre hookup, and is Anton really the lunatic he’s made out to be?

ST: i'm glad you like SOMETHING FOR YOU(SEER). it will be on my record. i have known Anton for a long time and he always really liked that song and asked if he could cover it for the EP. i sing it in DIG right before he kicks that poor guy in the head. is Anton a lunatic? hmmm, well, there is probably enough info out there on him now for anyone to answer that one. recently, i was with a group of people who were talking about him and one person said "Anton's a lunatic" and then someone else said " Anton's a dick" and then, in conclusion, someone said " Anton's a lunadick" so.... i dunno.

LM: If you could build a time machine that could only go back in time before the 20th century, where would you go, and who would you meet?

ST: if i could go back? uh, i wish i could go back and retrieve all the money i've spent on alcohol but before the 20th century, i guess maybe before there were people. perhaps, roaming the earth like a big peaceful platypus. just eating and walking. i'm lazy. i guess i would probably want to meet another nice and lazy herbivore or maybe a carnivore, if i was bored.

The Fountain - Graphic Novel

Finished the Graphic Novel adaptation of "The Fountain". It's beautiful. I couldn't sleep for hours because of the melancholy state that it put me in. Too many mistakes in this dear life, pray for transcendence.

Sounds like silence

I dropped the song "sound of silence" over the old "calm at the edge of the sea" trailer. i really like it this way, although the everlovely trailer is amazing as well. just something new.

BOUGHT:
The Fountain Graphic Novel by Darren Aronofsky and Kent Williams.

STARTING:
Writing a massive screenplay in the hopes that I will turn it into an amazing graphic novel. Tell you more about it someday.

CALM: Casey will be doing the final sound mix for "Calm" within the next couple weeks, which is really exciting, for the path behind us has been long and slow. I like that long slow pace although. Hope to screen the film up in Chico early 2007.

MUSIC: Still mixing elements from the ECHO PARK LODGE - Mexican Thanksgiving session that took place a few weeks back. Should be finished before I split town for X-Mas. Co. of Owls will do a limited release on CD-R with artwork and other oddities. It's special and won't be posted on the EPL Myspace.
