All the cool kids seem to be playing with Context Free and Processing these days.
I love the name “Context Free”. I used to always describe a coworkers conversational style as “context free”.

“terradynamic cavitation”
Todays phrase: “terradynamic cavitation.”
Now I just need a song befitting that title.
Phasmatodea aborbed into Death Jazz
Badger and I will be playing with Crowmeat Bob and Brian Donohue this Wednesday, July 20 at Bickett Gallery as part of the ongoing Death Jazz night.
Not sure what to expect, but it will be improvised. Show should start at 10pm or thereabouts. No cover.
I was reading an article in Cycle World about inexpensive motorcycles. One of the bikes reviewed was a Triumph Bonneville Black (aka, just like mine).
One of the reviewers made the comment (paraphrased): “This bike is perfect for picking up artsy chicks.”
Lets hope so.

details
If I ever had to make a living as a car detailer, I would starve to death very quickly.
I apparently, do not have any washing/cleaning/detailing skills. Or, at least, the lack of patience to learn them.
Trying to wash the bike yesterday afternoon was a bit nerve whacking. I thought it was nice and clean till I started looking closer. I
also can’t polish/wax worth a damn. Maybe a nice dull oxidized patina will be a good look.
show report
Saturday, went up to Charlotte Court House, VA to play a show at the 434Noisefest.
Based on some emails from the organizer, I wasn’t expecting much. The venue is an old house with power, but not a/c or running water. No house PA either.
But, it didn’t turn out too bad. Everything was pretty informal which helped work around the conditions. We got up there about 5pm, and watched a couple of sets. Some cool stuff. Played around 7:30 I believe for ~35 minutes.
Seemed to go okay. Started out on stick, using the ringmod. Don’t remember much else of what I played. I switched to fretless guitar for the second piece, but wasn’t really feeling it, so switched back to stick for the end of the piece.
One of the guys after our set was The Subliminator. He had a setup with a Boomerang looper and 4 alesis Air* boxes. Apparently, at some point or another, this guy had played with Hawkwind. And he totally looked like he could of played with Hawkwind. English accent, long hair, black unbuttoned silk shirt, black jeans, and plenty of road stories. Very rock and roll.
Talked to a bunch of folks, exchanged some email addresses, etc. All in all, not a bad way to spend a Saturday.
