I just don’t know where to start with everything. I just got back from Europe a few hours ago and it feels like it’s been a lot longer than just a week I’ve been away. First, The Trouble with Sweeney : I Know You Destroy was #1 in another year end top 10 list, this time from the Tuscon Weekly. TTWS will be recording a new ep shortly, featuring the following five songs: The Amazing Malcolm Smith and His Off-Roading Motorcycle (A Girl Called) Young Song Evelyn Rochman The City Let Me I Hope Your Sleep Is Dreamless and enhanced video clips for “Karen” and “Surrey Is A Word I Hardly Ever Use” off I Know You Destroy. No word on the official release date and name of the ep. Denison Witmer’s Philadelphia Songs will be released in Europe this spring through Sweden’s Bad Taste Records. The deals have all been set and the actual release date and details will be made known shortly. This means that it will be easier to find Denison’s album in Europe and that he should be making a jaunt or two or three over to softly rock your socks off. Johnathon Ford from Unwed…

Happy Halloween. It’s been a week since CMJ and the dust from the excitement has settled. It was nice meeting up with everyone. There are plans underway for a pretty ambitious release, a triple LP-only live concert from Mount Eerie in Copenhagen. It will be a split release with my good friends at Washington Inc. in Denmark. All of us are sorting out the packaging and artwork with Phil. More details once we have them figured out. The show does sound amazing. Sufjan Stevens has agreed to contribute to the one-sided LP series. Could be a little Rhode Island ep, we’ll see… See you all at the West Philadelphia warehouse party tonight for a little White Trash Inc. (Orchestra) performance. I’m off to Punkin Chunkin tomorrow in Delaware with the Garsons, Jess, the Spieses, and maybe more…see you there. :::scott:::
I’m in Los Angeles at the moment and things are very busy and happening. I’m staying with my friends Mike and Elisabeth who live near the ocean in Venice Beach. Their friend James was visiting and they’ve been editing an independent movie that they filmed last year. Last night, we had an outdoor barbeque, went to some super underground improve comedy thing, a midnight showing of Trilogy of Terror with a short talk back featuring actress Karen Black, and then a 3am visit to Rocoe’s Chicken and Waffles offering the best in, well, chicken and waffle combinations. We’ve been visiting quite a few other strange spots, includnig Randy’s Donuts, a donut stand with a gigantic donut on the roof that can occassionally be seen in movies. I’m off to San Francisco for a few days tomorrow. I’m going to see a baseball game on Tuesday with Jamie Hunt, who did the remarkable dry erase paint for Unwed Sailor’s The Marionette and The Music Box, and my old friend John who went to my high school. Should be exciting times ahead. In one-sided LP news, both Early Day Miners and The Six Part Seven are being pressed and printed while we…
