Hi Kreng.

What is this nice figurine, did you make it your self?
Sure would look nice on top of my record-shelf

i don't remember where i found this.

[Simple Torture]

A tape has been sold at recent gigs: Bonnie Prince Billy II - eleven songs each side. There is no other information on it.

That son of a bitch.

[Dev]

all this guys shit is the same.

[Mike]

Yeah, it's consistently the same at being very good.

[E.H. Ruddock]

all this guys shit is the same.

Dev, BPB is one of the best things to ever happen to music

[LetMeSleep]

Yeah, it's consistently the same at being very good.

[Meddle]

BPB is doing a small tour with Bitchin Bajas. I haven't listened to their collaboration yet, so I'm not sure what to expect. They're supposed to play solo sets and then together.

This will be my first time seeing BPB.

[Simple Torture]

They're coming up here, but I blew my summer concert load on Pearl Jam. Lame.

[super nintendo chalmers]

Man alive, that new record is great.

Has anyone actually bought this? I'd love to know what is on it. Live stuff or rarities? How could you not get this if you had the opportunity?

And also, what do people think of the new Bitchin' Bajas collaboration? For me it's a lot like Dylan doing a Sinatra album: Any release is a good one, but all that energy could have been directed to so many better places.

Yeah, it's consistently the same at being very good.

This was a quality post.

I'm in love with New Partner right now. Both the Palace Music and the Bonnie version.

Cursed Sleep

I slept sweetly unpretending
That the night was always ending
She breathed lightly right next to me
And I dreamed of her inside of me

And in my dream she sang so sweetly
A melody I hope to sing
So enslaved by her sweet wonder
It cut my legs and fingered hunger

She sang my name and so engulfed

I cried and felt my legs fail
In her arms I trembled electric
Oh and she let me and she held me

Then waking she was older still
And holds my love against its will
In spell cast with her palms extended
Cursed love is never ending

Cursed eyes are never closing
Cursed arm are never closing
Cursed children never rising
And cursed me never despising

Oh I am loving always holding
While she sleeps her song enfolding
Epic song it tells of how
She and I are living now

This is probably my favourite Oldham jam.

i'm way behind on his catalog, but for now it's probably mine too...top 3 at worst

[zeb]

There's a video? I'll have to look that up.
