what does dave do on this night which makes it unlike other nights? he listens to the concert for daves america on the transmission wire while he watches the men hurl things and brandish finely tooled sssslabs of wood on the moving picture box.. he wishes to comment on the proceedings and he calls upon you, those that bow down before him (and sometimes after him) to take heed of his words (and then to unheed them soon after).
dave thinks somethings are better heard and not seen (and sometimes not heard as well) the backstreet boys and melissa ethridge are fine examples dave might mention.
dave thinks despite the majority of his movies adam sandler can still be funny. his performance tonight dave thought was an instant classic. i dont know if rudy was there but the whole crowd hooted down mark green and soon after lovingly crooned 'guiliani' en sotto voce.
it is true what dave says, that lands exist beyond the waters. legend has it that once on The Far Shores he takes on new form as a dark red taurus, the color of blood, and can travel at magnificient speeds. it is a wonder he is not torn apart by the brute forces of nature. but that is what makes him dave.
dave now listens to a cacophony over the transmission wire as the assembled chant as one a sound much like an owl. he wonders why he did not think this concert was worthy of his Presence.
we are reminded of the wonders that dave speaks of from his wonderous travels across the water. here he is reacquainted with "rock blocs" emanating from teenage wastelands from The Early Years from The Time Beffore. also there are men (and sometimes women) who speak only of lewd and procreative acts (my love is vengence) in a frenzy of words and beats that can only hope to enliven and debase the spirit at once. this lesson is not lost on dave during his journey (to only dave know where). he too had trouble reading the signs even though the directions were within reach at all times. were it not for the fortuitousness of the turns that he did make would he not have reached his destination? (if he ever had one. it is said he is rootless, unlike the root which is rooted.)
Will We Not Get Fooled Again?
now the Lipps thats Curled (and now curdled). dave asks if it is ever possible to know which mick was finer at his craft, the one they call Mantle or the one who is Jagger. one thing that dave would say is that despite all the orgies of masculine nakedness that both of the micks endured, he is sure that the Jagged One handled his bat in an entirely different manner than the one who wielded one for the damned yankees of the forbidden zone.
dave reaffirmed on his visit to The Far Shores that watching the visual text he calls Meet The Parents causes The All Unknowing One physical discomfort to the degree where he can no longer endure the psychic sensation and must alter his visual text in order to mitigate his circumstances.. this torture he has termed 'humor' and it is his achilles heel or it would be called as such if dave had any respect for achilles. but seeing as achilles was a hopeless prevaricator and merely an "enhanced" humanoid, dave would not like to associate himself with such a hero.
what does kid rock have to say to the children? dave wants to know. he also wants to know how can people actually refer to another humanoid as p. diddy without losing a thing the humans know as dignity?
dave thinks macy gray did justice to Little Help From My Friends, especially considering she must follow The Jagged ONe.
The Crowd in the Garden does not like the one they call Hillary, even with the one they call Bill looking on. now even the Bill is met with a chilly reception. these people in The Forbidden City must have come from the Rebulica Hinterlands. but the Bill can win over The Crowd like the one they call HIllary never will.
WHo let James Taylor back in? dave becomes nostalgic for a time that never was. the men in uniforms continue to partake of sport, the pursuit has become meaningless without the words.
dave enjoyed the firefighter who taunted The Evil One. the fireman ended his taunt with "and i live in Rockaway and this is my face, bitch!"
The Rudy speaks in his platitudes to His people. The Crowd cheers for Yankee roundballers from The Forbidden Zone. There the Rudy is King for Another Day.
if only Sinatra were alive, it would all be ok. but it isnt.
its the melloncamp with a terrible new jingle. it is thought that dave once lived in The Pink House.
dave waits for the Walrus (what would john think?) and then he will be no more. and we can all (once again) praise dave for that.
Yes, dignity, yes I say to myself in
a fit of eloquence & who was the
great Mick yes or the great Bela for
that matter the future only knows
only it doesn't know until someone
tells it like it is. Hey maybe the future
is a conversation moderated by an
uncrass & not debased or naturalized
conversationalist like the net almost
is sort of. The thing is Dave has the pole
position for the run the turn into
butter kind of instant myth making
I for one am hooked to the gills on.
For who really can say what the future
holds although who can't for that matter.
& that was the day Johnny Cash told it
cold, I heard him with my own ears.
"I had the pills, sure, but then the pills
had me." I mean, how apt is that. I mean
I know how Dave feels about country
music.
What would John think?
I caught a clip of Paul's finale, with all the ex-counter culture stars singing "freedom, we will fight to protect our freedom…" Yech. It's a long way from All You Need is Love. The song sounded hastily composed, but without the spirit that animated Richie Havens' spontaneous Freedom at Woodstock. We had a war then, too, and funny ways of explaining it. The authorities said we had to fight so we could have peace, to which the hippies replied "fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity". Something similar is going on here, as I'm not convinced it's really our freedom that's at stake. What would John do? Stop and think, maybe? When revolution was a popular (if unrealistic) notion, John said "we all want to change the world…but when you talk about destruction you can count me out". It's important to qualify the bandwagon impulse. Maybe even more so when it's "right". John might have advocated sending bombers full of rose petals. Nonsense, of course, but I can't see him joining the ranks that were on that stage at MSG. Even when we "have to" fight, somebody "has to" say how awful that is.

dave has nothing against country music as long as that country is france. but then only if they croon in french like theyre from brooklyn.
- dave 10-21-2001 5:51 pm [add a comment]
See it just proves what Michael Stipe
said about Maria Callas is true which is
nearly word for fucking word what
Thelonius Monk said about country
music. "I like music."
- frank 10-21-2001 7:20 pm [add a comment]
so then its settled. french country music looks like maria callas and michael stipes lovechild and sounds like thelonious monk in paris in 1965.

i wrote that "WWJT?" during that awful freedom song. and then he followed it up with Let It Be which seemed a contradictory message. it was not a Give Peace a Chance crowd but Paul (as is often noted and at no time seemed more obvious) is no John. but he makes a good yankee fan if such a thing exists.

All I want to know is if my incessant
& spurious blather has kept Brother
Jim outside the gates of the dark satanic
baseball stadium.
- frank 10-23-2001 2:20 pm [add a comment]
yes, its true. it was a tearful revelation when jim shared his overwhelming desire to go to the game but his inability to do so out of concern for your opinion of him. sure, he says its about the money or maybe its a little guilt over abandoning his boyhood redsox but deep down, its all about frank. if he asks me once more, "what would frank do?" i might have to put him out of his misery.
- dave 10-23-2001 5:31 pm [add a comment]
heres a ticket jim surely could not afford although ballboy is still an option.
- dave 10-23-2001 7:08 pm [add a comment]
Frank of course would leave his prescription on Dave's kitchen table but would have already forgotten dave's address & would become one of those New York street classics standing around Bowery shouting "Dave it's Frank I left my pills on your table, man.." up at the wrong window wishing he had gone to the game with Jim.

In any case, I didn't go.
I am accepting World Series tickets. I'll keep you all posted.
