How do? I'm a (whisper it so the tax payers don't hurt me) student, of the philosophical inclination. I spread the Sonic gospel to all, often in my one SY t-shirt, which is the needlessly garish lime-green DV'69 one. Album that got me hooked was Sister, used to listen to it at full blast when I worked as a kitchen porter in a nursing home, christ knows what it did to the minds of the poor alzheimers-ridden old ladies as it seeped into their brains through the floor.... not sure which my favourite of all time is, but I've listened to the 1999-13-06 bootleg more than anything else by them in the last 6 months (you know, the one when they supported the new york quartet, ace recording, did tenney's '....percussion' and stil and expressway, what a set!). I try to convince people that Silver Session is a legitimate album, and have upset several people with my endevours. Only seen the yoof once proper on the DN tour (and thanks to everyone who sorted out the links for the vid of the encore w/corsano flower duo!
), but saw thurston at the colour out of space fest w/ nace n corsano again. Other tastes go from beatles to cream to stooges to zep to can to sabbath to neu! to magazine to pil to siouxsie to cocteau twins to spacemen 3 to mbv to smashing pumpkins to bjork to early oasis to sleater-kinney to acid mothers temple to merzbow to queen adreena (in roughly chronological order). Er, thats more than enough for now... Oh! fave sy song is diamond sea (hence my nick), BUT the 26 min. single b-side/destroyed room version cuz it's more blissed and loopy and lush than the album one, which is only 19 poxy minutes long and goes all dissonant at the end
