Just a question, out of curiosity: Why do I get a negative reputation point from Genteel Death when I post in this thread? Twice now.

Played live last Friday. It was a blast.

little suggestion: have a sort of banner printed and bring it around at gigs, so you can tape it to the edge of the table you put your gear on, the sight of the "mess" of cables and your legs under it may not be that good looking from an audience perspective. OR you could buy a pico projector, and project random stuff on a white "banner" (sorry, I can't come up with a better term for it..) in the same spot. If you like the idea of people being able to "see" those wires and your legs (to avoid the "I'm just pressing play on itunes" vibe some electronic musicians give) perhaps try to tidy up a bit the wiring (bring your own plugs with enough outlets for your gear and set up the wiring the best you can). Random post of the day: mission accomplished. Could be 100% bullshit, but yeah, felt like posting this.

edit: "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to _slavo_ again.". amazing.

This one's for Genteel Death, and in honor of American Pharoah winning the Kentucky Derby!

hanging with father mike.. on a boat!

Great glasses, pony!

Here's my casual Friday look. Note that I keep my glasses in the breast pocket. Real men, i.e., editors, use the pocket for their glasses, not for their hankies.

Cute.

I'm a fan of yer style GMKU....however...my girlfriend isn't....


and

must spread rep to ponycakes

Thank you, EVOL, and that's okay. Most girlfiriends don't have a clue when it comes to men's clothing style.

Just before taking the stage for our Dad and Daughter Dance at her recital this past weekend.

Wet. Out. There. Today! (Glengarry Glen Ross reference. I use it at work and nobody seems to get it, or lets on that they get it. Is it really that obscure?)

dad & daughter dance! nice!

Disclaimer: Please don't discriminate against me just because I happen to have no children who live at home. I can't post fuzzy warm family photos.

I recognize Gary Oldman but who is the actress with him?

aw, that's sweet, bytor! your daughter is pretty!

sharp as always, gmku


did i post this yet? i know youve seen this, rob. it might be my favorite pic of me ever next to the one with craig finn

There's only one word for this: lovely.

Haha! That's me and Kat Bjelland (Babes in Toyland)

Nice! Well, let her know I'm a fan. I was into them in the early 90s, even had the SubPop single at one time.

OK, you're getting too subtle for me, SuchFriends. What do you mean?

Um, okay. You mean cuz I was there in the 90s and hep to things like Babes in Toyland?

no no-- suchfriends teaches history

what he means is that when he finally realizes his lifelong dreams of fame, and has to give talks and go on charlie rose (if charlie rose is still alive in 2077), he's going to use your photos as his style guide

ah, thank you. I don't deal well with cryptic. I barely deal well with clear.

charlie rose will be replaced by a cyborg version of himself. or who am i kidding, he'll still be around.

i don't know why i find this so amusing

but, as always, gmku, stylin.

i actually really would like to be on charlie rose, if only because my skin will glow fantastically against that background.

charlie rose will upload himself to the internet and let go of his body. then he'll interview himself forever like this

https://youtu.be/LFE2CCfAP1o

i... well, now i know that exists. that's truly wonderful.

imagine this playing in a room full of tvs.

it should be on display at moma

i'm still miffed i didn't get the whole day there, or more than an hour at the met (sigh). the matisse exhibit was super fun, at least.

Gibberish.. all gibberish is exactly how i feel everytime i try to watch charlie rose

damn, that's terribly sad.

he has good guests-- lots of interesting people. workaholics maybe, but still.

two things i dislike:

1) when he tries to talk over the guest to prove that he knows everything. SHUT UP CHARLIE!

2) when he brings up shitty movie people to promote their shitty movies. come on dude!

his series on the brain has been great. that little old man with the bowtie that he brings along is simply fantastic.

Evans: The crisis? Charlie Bludorn's birthday. The solution? A snappy banner. Out comes the phone, in flies Bobby Towne, and six drafts later, I had myself a party.

...
Rose: We're back with legendary producer Robert Evans. Now,
before you did "The Godfather," there was "Love Story." Tell us about that.
Evans: Ah, "Love Story" -- the little picture that could. Was Paramount chomping at the bit to make it? Heh, heh, you'd better believe they weren't. But once that tear-jerker hit John Q. Popcorn, it was boffo-boo-boo box office all the way. [chuckles]
Rose: And the critics loved it, too. I remember Vincent Canby

i like his interview with david foster wallace alright, but it's more because you can tell in a way dfw is just enjoying the spectacle of being on charlie rose
