updated Apr 15 2008

1. the tour-ific tour-leg one:
the jicks strafed the midwestern/ mid altlantic/ eastern/ southern REgions and it was a Superior Extravaganza!!!
THank you to the" All of You" for coming out.
Important to document the first show ever in in in Indiana (Easter Sunday in in Indianapolis was .....Intense?)
We appreciated the tough/ honest love in PHilly , Atlanta. The real people in western Mass. Three days in Nyc--
JOanna was showered with love over her birthday weekend. we put the pieces back together in Austin on april 20.
the joggers will play too. this is a sick band. so get there early.

2. A mountainous avalanche of ephemera-- we are sorry if you are overfed.

pick up an AMerican magazine last month and odds are you saw something about what is a Jick? or fatherhood/ or pavement reforming /or what its like to play with Janet.
Important questions ,no doubt--.noble grist to put between the advertisements. Unfotuntaley we have nothing to add in the way of news ... it has all been said so perfectly in the trades.

Todd Haynes mentions Stockton California twice in New mOvie.

WE (kinda) know Mr Haynes is from GLendale or San Bernadino . But after doing his undergrad at Brown and A stint in the garbage factory that is New YOrk CIty, we thought the Metaphorical Power of STOCKTON was far from his mind...

SO it was a shock to this Moviegoer when the Pure Vanilla DESPERATION of Stockton was invoked Mr. Haynes nu movie IM not THERE> Maybe he read Fat City. We know Denis Johnson considers Fat City to be a masterpiece of compression.
If you looked up the word "NOWHERE" in the Psychic Dictionary of Places, Stockton would be the first Definition.
NICE work, TOdd.
