Since I’m such a Lovecraft fanatic why not use that for the basic idea? Since I’m also a huge fan of ambient, minimal and noise I can slowly build it up throughout the show until at the end the people in the crowd can dance as I switch from my music to DJing other music.

I was talking to Nelly yesterday and she gave me the final idea. I still have that unfinished lsd song that I screwed around with. As the performance goes on it can be inferred that this is really a Lovecraftian acid trip gone very bad. You can watch as the main “character” goes from the start of hell to the point that they understand that nothing is really real and need to start enjoying themselves.

So far it’s just in the basics stage and I really need to start writing the full ideas out along with a time line to see how much music I need to write and the sort of weird shit the performers can do along with it. I also need to reread a bunch of Lovecraft to brush up on the whole mythos and the sensations I wish convey.

Before anyone else could come over, a building two or three doors down, seemed to have caught fire.  I’m going to guess somene’s cooking didn’t agree with the walls and decided to pick a fight.  It was pretty sweet watching the firemen do their thing.  Running up ladders, carrying hoses and all that.  It must not have been a very big fire because it was all over within 15 minutes.  Firemen really do have a tough gig.

Then onto the super bowl.  What a game that was.  I was very shocked when the Cardinals took the Steelers towards the end.  Then in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter the Steelers went and did an incredible drive to win.  Down to the last minute.  Was exciting to watch the only foot ball game of the year that I ever watch.

Of course super bowl means commercials some were really god damn hilarious, I’ll only post two that cracked me up and we had to rewind on the TiVo a few times to witness a second, even third time.
