the song sleepwalk, i believe, was originally performed by a group called
santo & johnny, two brothers from either the bronx or brooklyn--one of the
ny boroughs. an interested bit of mm relatedness, on the b-side of the
sleepwalk single, on the canadian american label, if i remember correctly,
although i never saw degrassi high, as any self respecting skankin' pickle
fan (former, in my case) should know. they had a song called "i'm in love
with a girl named spike" whom aparently was a character on the show. i
can't remember the words now, but i used to love that song.

you can create harmonics with a guitar by picking a string while holding
your finger gently over certain frets. depending on which fret you finger,
the harmonics vary in intensity. the loudest are probably 5, 7 and 12
(octave). make sure that you finger the string directly over the fret
for all you portlanders out there--i've got a show of some photographs

Did anyone record the Portland show? I will trade pictures. Oh yeah, I was
in the front, one person back, to the right of issac, with a Canon and a
big flash. Best show ever man.

As far as my favorite shows, just thought I'd throw my two cents in:
Elvis Costello at the Hult Center in Eugene
Modest Mouse and IQU (then ICU) at the Crystal Ballroom
The Music Tapes and Olivia Tremor Control at 17 Nautical Miles
The New Bad Things and Matthew Hattie Hein at 17 Nautical Miles

for all who are interested. modest mouse is playing the crystal ballroom in
portland, or on november 30. tickets are not on sale (yet), and details are
to be announced.
going nowhere but i'm guaranteed to be late,
