...But in spite of all [the poet's] pride, a secret shame
Invades his breast at Shakespeare's sacred name:
Aw'd when he hears his Godlike Romans rage,
He in a just despair would quit the Stage;
And to an Age less polish'd, more unskill'd,
Does with disdain the foremost Honours yield.
John Dryden (1631-1700).

shame is real... - Mon, 23 May 2005 11:16pm

we actually have no shame at all - thats why we love this message board..

There’s a brand new dance but I don’t know it’s name
That people from bad homes do again and again
It’s big and it’s bland full of tension and fear
They do it over there but we don’t do it here

Fashion! turn to the left
Fashion! turn to the right
Oooh, fashion!
We are the goon squad and we’re coming to town
Beep-beep
Beep-beep

Listen to me - don’t listen to me
Talk to me - don’t talk to me
Dance with me - don’t dance with me, no
Beep-beep

There’s a brand new talk, but it’s not very clear
Oh bop
That people from good homes are talking this year
Oh bop, fashion
It’s loud and tasteless and I’ve heard it before
Oh bop
You shout it while you’re dancing on the ole dance
Floor
Oh bop, fashion - Mon, 23 May 2005 11:18pm

Calgary has been great so far... I mean aside from Haden getting comments like "you're not hot, but you're hot to me" and "hey! You're almost a cougar!"... yeah ouch. I think it's because we've been hitting all the "pretty girl/ bar star" bars...

So far I think we've enjoyed the drive out here more than the actual time here... Will be heading to the back alley tonight tho- things could change for the better.

I'll be posting pics of the trip on my site (under random thoughts/ message board)- as well as stories of what's happening once I figure out how to get the pics up there.

We're out mostly for a vacation but brought our instruments to hit random cafes for impromtu performances and busk along the way. at this point- we need to make some $$$ to get home!

I still can't believe that 2 guitars, a stand up bass and all our shit fit into that tercel and still managed to make it over the rockies ok.

Sorry we missed the show, but we'll catch the next one. - Sat, 28 May 2005 9:19am
