[sdre-l]: "fucking greedy little monkey"
Hey all. Don't know how well this is going to work, but I scanned in an article from Sept's Rockpile. A pre-Trocadero interview with Dan. "Moving in Mysterious Ways, Sunny Day Real Estate's Coming Out" by Frank Valish. Okay. hehehe Explains Television, I hadn't seen those comments in any other articles. <> <> BTW, is there some kind soul out there who would be nice enough to tape Mouse's Moon and Antarctica for me. I'm presently B-R-O-K-E, but would REALLY like that album. I'd do a trade, a swap. Many thanks. amy page1.jpg page2.jpg
RE: [sdre-l]: to whoever needed an nyc ticket
Yeah, it's only $24 to get back and forth, Philly to NYC, on New Jersey Transit, and you can call the Troc and order tickets with a credit card over the phone during box office hours, so ticketmaster doesn't monopolize the immobile (i.e. those who have a tough time getting to box offices). > -Original Message- > From: dana kerr [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2000 3:36 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [sdre-l]: to whoever needed an nyc ticket > > > this is for the kid that wanted to go to the sold out nyc show. i can't > help > you with getting a ticket. however, why don't you hop on the train and see > > them in philly at the trocadero on july 8? i don't think it's sold out > yet. > > xoxo > dana > > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com >
[sdre-l]: Philly show, sharing the news
Tickets for the show at the Trocadero go on sale at noon on Friday, 6.2.00. But don't be calling the box office the same time I am. I want my tickets!! and I don't want to sit on the phone for an hour waiting listening to muzac. Well, actually, I don't care.
RE: [sdre-l]: Jeremy Voice Comparison
I was... Listening to Death Cab for Cutie last night, and I was thinking Gibbard's voice sounded kind of like Jeremy's. I mean, he "stole" the idea of "Fallen Heart" to end Airplanes, why not sound like high-pitched, slightly-nasal-Jeremy too? Nah, but that guy has great voice, that DCFC guy.

[sdre-l]: lyrics interpreted, randomly
As a possible topic for discussion, what the heck could the lyrics mean? (hehe Ernesto's gonna love me for bringing this up ;) ) One of the things that I'm curious about is what Enigk means when he says 'running through fields.' Makes me think of the American frontier, mass movement, viewing from on high, or a return to nature, maybe. The lyrics from the snippet of the upcoming album seem more vague than HIFTBSO's, but obviously the same topics, like the cycles of life and death, something or other with millions, delicately speaking of and for the masses (and I've liked how he's done that, here and in HIF)... I assume they're about god, an ever-present presence; and there's a wave, an answer, made JUST FOR YOU. Sure. And in the first verse-section-thing, it seems like he thinks he's been reprimanded for not doing something right. Interesting insight into him personally. Can anyone who knows something about christian or eastern religion give any comments on the possible inferences or references he's making? Someone mentioned something earlier, but I've of course forgotten what he said. :)
[sdre-l]: hands in the air, havin' a good time
Alright, lame on my part, but all I want to say is that the critique given for Enigk's solo from http://www.pitchforkmedia.com had no founding. The guy listened to the album three times, relieved that there was no religious connotation, said it sucked and topped it off by saying it had no climax. No, don't think so.
[sdre-l]: the real lil' red heart
Alright, so my fairytale fantasies of rock stars playing with magic markers and glue sticks for our pleasure was absurd. I've been caught over-dramatizing. And as it's been noted to me, Sunny Day has no official live recordings, so whatever the people at the record store think they know, they're wrong. But in case anyone's wondering, someone told me what was going on with the three CDs I saw. They're bootlegs of various things, I guess made by the same person; three volumes, "vol 1 is at the knitting factor [1995]; vol 2 is jeremy rare and acoustic; and vol 3 is sunny day acoustic stuff." There are supposedly only a hundered, so I guess they'll be worth a bit more money in couple years. Late, Amy
[sdre-l]: Lil' Red Hearts
OK. Dude: I found myself in New York this weekend (and lucky me, the Pot Fest was held this weekend as well, hehe). I strolled down to a record store in search of Sunny Day, tracked them down, and flipped thru a pretty extensive collection. The images on them were relatively crappy, and there was no mention of SubPop anywhere on many of them, so I presumed that several kids had put together compilations or live recordings or whatever, and somehow the store bought them. There were three odd CD covers on the rack that were simple brown paper with minimal writing. I grabbed the perfect one, noted the handwriting looked like Jer-yummy's, but immediately dismissed it, flipped it over to find a heart w/ "Jeremy" written in it, and thought, "How gay. Why the hell would someone do such a corny thing as pulling the lead singer's name in a heart? Duh." As I was making my purchase, I asked the guy behind the counter if the CDs where made by the public, and he half-scoffingly replied, "We get stuff through the record companies. Sunny Day's a small enough band that they'll make a thousand copies of a recording and distribute it." So idiot girl here, slowly starts to piece all the glaring evidence together, after being blinded by cynicism. The three brown covers must have been a product of Jeremy, and whoever else, spending hours upon hours in a studio next to a stack of live recordings, copying them onto CDs, armed with paper bags, scissors, glue, a couple different color pens, and cutesy little stamps, intending to identify and engineer little pockets for those CDs. Um, dude, that seriously KICKS-ASS! That is so EXTRAORDINARILY thoughtful, he wins many a_little_red_star for such an endeavor. Does anyone know anything about these? Anyone seen them? Any idea how many exist? Am I completely off-base on them being handmade by the demi-god himself? I intended to scan the cover, and I will if anyone wants to see it, but I can't do it right now...
