Drawing letters is a lot more challenging than I expected. I wasn’t happy with the hand drawn version, but it made a good base for a digital rework.
#5!
I finished issue #5 of my TMBG zine today! Unfortunately, I don’t currently have the money to make copies of it, but in two weeks either I’ll be getting money or I’ll be starting to volunteer again at the zine library, where I can do it for free. Another friendly reminder that the first four issues are all on Etsy!
So I have a thing I do where I always try to get John’s leftover coffee when I’m at a show. I know it would probably freak him out but WHATEVER, if he doesn’t want people to take it he shouldn’t leave it there. Anyway, this one time I was at a show when I was first going, on the Mink Car tour. The roadies wouldn’t let us reach over and grab anything off the stage (not even setlists) but Danny wandered out so I asked him to give me John’s coffee. He said, “John doesn’t want people to have his coffee!” and I said, “John doesn’t have to know!” Then I said “Danny, you’ll be my new favourite member of the band!” and he laughed really hard and said “He will always be your favourite member of the band!” Well…trufax.
whenever i’m down i just remember that i heard john linnell shout “DICK JACKOFF!?”
JEALOUS
So I have this bootleg with no track names. I was going through listening to everything for a second to label it, and there was this one song I didn’t recognize. Apollo guessed it was “a Pal Joey revival” and when I actually went through listening to the full show it turned out she was right—Flans introduced it. It’s called “I Could Write a Book” and here it is.
what quinn meant to say was !!!PAL JOEY REVIVAL!!!
!!PAL JOEY REVIVAL!!!
I have spent years wondering what one of those sounded like…and now I know. (I am not yet sure if I am relieved or disappointed that Flans didn’t try to go full Sinatra on us.)
Well, they also did “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered” and (both) sang on that. And they did “My Funny Valentine” which was also instrumental.
