Attention!!


Not that I'm expecting anyone (besides the few who already know) to read this, but it's always better to just get these things off of your chest and out into the world, whether it be in the wide web or the actual(?) one...

Anyway, something bigger is beginning to happen. It's the type of thing that makes you wanna believe in magic again.. on par with a spread seed of the dead dandelion or watching the arriving flights line up on your way home on the 405..

So... ATTENTION!!! Stinky Pinky, Big Moke, Gnarle, Jubien, DJ Heartbreaker, Eyeball Burp! Magazine, Ten at Raize Collective, Free Moral Agents, Blank Blue, Up Above Records, Second Thought (if you MFers still think you can rap), Harsh, Jupiter Ignition, Gray, Sal, Omar, Paradigm One, The Big Spank, Markisa, Gardena, Mingo, Tomorrows Bad Seeds (if you're all not too busy..) and anyone else doing work in the South Bay:  WELLS NEED YOUR HELP!!

I figure, if everything continues to go better than what I admit to dreaming of, then there is a very big splash to be made.. there will be lots of eyes too! ..and hearts to be taken!  So stay tuned!  And tuned! Because although none of us can presently afford to dream, I assure you our time is close!

If we keep moving like this, like something's after us, I think we'll be ok..
..or like we're after something...
Something IS after us.
Some things were before us.
And something will come after us once we're good and gone..
Luckily, what we're after is right before us
Or at least it feels that way..

Safer - Animal Collective

Why am I so scared
that there're shadows on the walls from yesterday?
I turn and tell my dad
I saw ghosts in the park wooing girls with cakes.
Their moms are scared
cause they haven't been home in two or three days.
The wind blows trees though the tops of my hair
I saw wolves in the fog, I can see through the rain.

Oh, many things have changed
in the snow filled lakes where there used to be waves.
I feel deranged.
They're building beaches inside, so it's sunny on me.
I don't know. I think it's strange
cause I know we met before, but I cannot place it.
I don't know if there's any real danger,
but the creatures all know that it's safer in the dark.

Why am I so scared
of explosions going off in just any old way.
I turn and ask, "Is it really that bad?"
They say we've much bigger problems.
We've got wolves on the plain.
And they left their den
cause of cracks in the pipes through the murky graves.
They're runnin' just as fast as the hares.
They say you shouldn't leave a place if you can eat there.

Oh, man and things have changed
in the snow filled lakes where there used to be waves.
I feel deranged.
They're building beaches inside, so it's sunny on me.
I don't know. I think it's strange
cause I know we met before, but I cannot place it.
I don't know if there's any real danger,
but I'm alright, if you're alright.

Rant I

When your heart jumps from out of your mouth
and fumbles it's way into the wavy world;
and once a string of shiny moments makes
you trace the day from behind its horizon;
And then, day
breaks again,
You'll remember December.
And you'll wonder what rain is:
The sky or the water.
And you'll remember why.
