Occasionally an album will come out that is really special to me. I want to make that first moment with the music as conducive to full sensory absorption as possible. I have to kind of prepare myself and my environment for the experience. I have been wondering how I'm gonna prepare my ears, mind, and other vital organs for the new VV album.1. Pick a day when I've had plenty of sleep so I can be fully aware of everything that's going on in each song. 2. Block my kittie door so Spike and his sister will not disturb me(He only likes Zappa and tends to complain if I have something else on) 3. Take the stupid phone off the hook. 4. Throw on my VV t-shirt of course. 5. Listening to this one will have to be done at night. So I can shut the lights off and not be disturbed by Mother Sun. 6. Have my Stihl 029 FarmBoss(with 20" bar)chainsaw between my feet so when the music becomes so intense I can't stand it any longer I can go take out a tree(I threw that in for you envirowhacks) 7. Buy a very nice import brew and possibly another light stimulant for increased aural introspection. 8. I will probably analyze and study the words and new concept beforehand so I won't have to keep referring to it while I'm listening. This may take some time. and push PLAY......... I wish I could hang out with Blacky when(or if) he listens to it. Now that would be some insight. [ June 03, 2002: Message edited by: Mezcalhead ]

Oops, I accidentally quoted Noitall's Tammy Wynett piece....Mezcalhead, I luuuuv the way you spell my name a different way everytime.....and ask questions that have nothing to do with the topic at hand  As for Cavestany, that was about three years ago down in San Francisco. I moved away from SF (sniff, sniff  ) a year ago. Why, were you thinking of stalking him too? By the way, did I ever send you my mailing address? If not, that last comment shouldn't make any sense to you. Unless....I thought I started one, but maybe I never sent it. [ June 03, 2002: Message edited by: hypergrrl ]
