there is so much about what I
consider OLD WORLD humor that
simply escapes my sensitive moods.
For instance, Tony Martin.
The Young Ones?
You know the Boosh are just the Young Ones of the 00s.
with a bit of Goodies thrown in.
i am doing the ivor hanson interview on saturday so if there is anything you particularly want to ask him let me know. my questions are awesome though so don't wory too much.
AWESOME.
as long as your questions are awesome, then awesome.
I forget, are you publishing the interview somewhere?
Regardless, I think you should post it here.
Also, this picture was suppose to accompany my earlier "People's Poet" post:

yeah i'll be publishing it in JERK WEEKLY: The MONTHLY MAGAZINE for WINNERS or whatever John's latest zine is called.
i need someone who is willing to interview some other punkish type authors.
get in touch if you wanna do that.
I'm actually trying to get with Dr Frank next month during a visit to California.
Would you be interested if I land an interview?
PM me if so.
call me tundra boy, because
i move like an arctic lizard
I'm sending out the Ivor Hanson interview today. You'll get a CD with some wav files on it. You do the rest - i.e. turn it onto an mp3 or whatever.
It's got some good bits about the book, and also about Dischord and Fugazi and Ivor's life in DC, but it's also kind of rambling and is nearly 40 minutes long. We both get giggly interview syndrome even though it's not actually funny. If I were going to publish anything in text form I'd nab about ten key passages out of what Ivor said and leave the rest. Just send me a copy before you do anything with it. I'll send you my real e-mail address.
And yeah I'll interview punkish authors if you like. Or at least, I'll say I'll do it now, and then say I wont in about four months. That's the worst that could happen.
thats a lot of pressure you are putting on me,
back off man!
actually, AWESOMENESS.
I will let you know what will happen with it.
Hopefully, it will appear in the relaunch of UNCERTAIN NERVOUS SYSTEMS which I am looking to make a quarterly or some such damn regular punk rock zine tome.
I wanna copy of this interview.
RJohn, get your monkey slaves to transcribe it and mail me a copy post haste!
Did you ever actually get this?
I sent it ages ago.
OOOOOOOOOH YEAH.
I got it big boy.
I got it good.
are you going to use it?
i am slighltly paranoid about this because I have never done an interview before.
also because I sense that that the first version we did - without the microphone turned on - was probably better and less stage-managed.
so anyway let me know if you are going to use it.
love,
big boy.
you realize that OF COURSE i am going to use it.
I thought it was goot.
well that's alright then.
I am reading the DEAD BEAT right now. Maybe I should interview D.A. Gree when she gets out of Bedlam.
Q1 - what was bedlam like?
Q2 - is you next novel going to be about werewolves?
etc.
I'll ask her.

out now
