couple of good hours


and then down to th valley

by way of th car

and a joint

and another bourbon


had a great time in th city
just

surfin away


found
mika and johnno

and i think your name is sam

man with th trumpet


had a sing with them


then found rock spider

in his usual hole



he handed me his big drum

and we went



lets get these chicks to dance
doin th rock spider shuffle


started to wear down
and rock spider's like

go and grab johnno paulie

and we'll have a joint

im gunna sit down 
and start singin

and i'll be fucked


but i went

and umm

ok


but mika wanted a slash

so we thought we'd play a couple while we waited


so johnno and i jammed with sam


nice when hes in th mix
he pulls it out regularly

trumpet's loud
and piercing

was findin his notes
and landin
in th vocal mix

stayed high
in th tonal range
most of th night

really missed havin an acoustic rhythm guitar

givin me nice back
to fall back to

i worked hard
sorry
my voice worked hard


johnno
and i walked up

to rock spider's hole
joined his
jam till th 


patrons fucked off

i was doin like

no that was after th joint
with th three of us


doin like



it's alright
don;t worry about it
it's all shit


and then seguin into
rock spider's mantra

love it when they


scream at ya to restart again
from th other side of th street

fuck man

i put th drum down
stop singin and light a smoke

and im gettina abused from across th street

she was dancin

so tall
and so lithe

and fuckit

really long
and she was

pretty

fine features and


somethin special man

when she stopped dancing

each boy in turn

unpaid pornos

"he was sayin we should look to see if we're in one"

+++


there's this gap

between th midrange

and th high range

where i dont have th volume

really felt it
[second pass]


as ever
when ya go acoustic with an amped setup
ya lose a lot of


repertoire


i love that flameco guitar
amplified


but i disappear behind th mmix

i see
mika
straining to hear me

when it gets low

well mika


you know what to do man



i still get heard but
or i wouldnt get those

nice
compliments

runnin on twenty percent
projecting
th highs
and th lows

and th mids


giving it all

and losing

all th th little frilly 
bits

that tie it all together



mika got em though


i sit close
i wanna hear th axe

not th amp


im singin to both





[second pass]

singin when mika was goin

flamenco on me


he pushed me to go percushion

i rest th voice then


and fuck man

im spoiled 
been playin with lots of

rhythm guitars
and if i slide off th beat

ah there it is

cheatin man


mika' s pushin

get on it
and stay on it

but nice

you know what i mean ?



wasnt pissed enough by then


then it was dawn

and i kept slidin off


was startin to come down too much too


thanks guys

+++


mika and i were bopping
everyone else was somewhere else
