I’m in Amsterdam with Denison at the moment. We’ve had an amazing weekend walking around with Diana and Lucas. We discovered the magic of raw herring, a Dutch delicacy. Denison ate all of his, I only managed to stomach a little more than half, but I feel like I still joined an elite club. Today, we saw Dogville with Diana/Lucas and our Swedish friend Micke. It was just an amazingly captivating movie with quite a surprise ending. Nicole Kidman was unbelievably brilliant and Lars von Trier delivers yet again, if not with his most important and impressive movie yet. It may be my recent post-movie excitement, but it was really quite good. Denison is playing quite a few shows in Europe, you must see him play. We’re hanging with Rik and Alleke for the rest of the night and I’m off in the morning to Singapore. Early Day Miners Vinyl will be out in stores on Tuesday, 2 September, go buy it… Welcome back to the U.S., Jess, talk to you soon. :::scott:::

I’m off to France and Singapore in a couple of hours, so goodbye to everyone and hello to my friends in Europe/Asia. Thanks to Scott and Jane for taking me sailing yesterday and to Matt and Emily for making breakfast and Rich and Deanna for being there. Thanks to Matthew for cooking up mexican food on Friday night and everyone who stopped in for a visit. See you all in a month or so. :::scott:::
Today is my 30th birthday. Joey told me that 30 is the new 22, offering whatever glimpse of hope he could. I am offering a special deal…Type in “Happy Birthday Scott” or some fine derivative and receive free shipping on your order. If you order the Unwed Sailor hardbound book, I’ll give it to you for $18ppd, a mere $5 more than the digipak version. You cart contents won’t reflect the deal, but I will take care of it upon charging your credit card. Type something positively witty and you might find yourself with a better deal still. The deal’s off if you somehow manage to insult me, so be careful, and it will only last into early September. So, are you feeling lucky? Thanks to everyone who stopped by last night. A special shout out to Mr. Jeff Mangum of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Tuscon and mad props to the amazing girl who tracked it all down. :::scott:::
