1 of the Most Important Shows I've Ever Seen; _ ;Setlist for Wilco 1999 Pittsburgh Metropol
This show taught me how to rock it out when your backs against the wall in a tight space place with shitty sound and drunk assholes (this includes myself) and, therefore, made my appreciation real for those true blue pretty gritty rockers who toll-by-toll go out on the road and give 110% (+ a little magic) for hand-claps.

Happy Birthday RYan Adams #TheseGirls #EasyTiger
Happy Birthday RYan Adams #TheseGirls #EasyTiger
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvL9pSvJdQk
Well, girl sometimes i feel just like a boy
Put here on this earth for you to toy around with
Like matchbox cars you buy and burn in your backyard
Like monsters underneath your bed you ain't afreaid of yet
But you let me in
And i feel alright
Yeah, i feel alright
The late night girls are anxious
And they're coming out to play
And i've been stranded on their doorstep for every night and day
I only want them more, it's so sad but when they smile
God, i've been had
I get hypnotized and i wanna go to bed
I used to pick up shells cast off the reef
One christmas i got a funeral and they handed me the receipt
How ever many lies i tell without my tongue
Get twisted into memories 'til i believe them some
And i toy with you
And you toy with me
Can you stop this please
God bless all the late night girls, and they're coming out to smile how can anybody feel bad
It makes me tired and i wanna go to bed
These are better off in my head
These girls are better off in my head
These girls are better off in my head
These girls
Happy Birthday RYan Adams #TheseGirls #EasyTiger

Self Discovery & Individual Politics
Picturesque pictorial
Self discovery,
Personal growth
& individual politics;
Playing a part of elections
A walk down by the mainstream
Dutch Pennsylvania.
High fire light on Old English Tapestries
Autumns colored leaves cover up
The cracks of once baked earth in industrial
Hot ovens of Crow's Run Valley now bricks of village sidewalks & streets
Meat pies. Fat off the bone,
Mad joy of music & dance
Threading vibrant new fabric
Into the making of a new tapestry
All your generation & its friends
Family grown from red faced cheeks,
Red powdered bosoms & butts
This life is sweet with apple rich
Education
Written on my morning walk over here in western Pennsylvania reflecting on a little haunt I had yesterday at Penn State 50 yard line suite looking out & within the ring of mountains

In Session: Lou Reed - Sweet Jane (poetic lyrics included w/ poetic rock & roll guitars)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foMNiug0WGc
Standing on the corner,
Suitcase in my hand
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is her vest,
And me I'm in a rock'n'roll band Hah!
Ridin' in a Stutz Bear Cat, Jim
You know, those were different times!
Oh, all the poets they studied rules of verse
And those ladies, they rolled their eyes
Sweet Jane! Whoa! Sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
I'll tell you something
Jack, he is a banker
And Jane, she is a clerk
Both of them save their monies, ha
And when, when they come home from work
Oh, Sittin' down by the fire, oh!
The radio does play
The classical music there, Jim
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers"
All you protest kids
You can hear Jack say, get ready, ah
Sweet Jane! Come on baby! Sweet Jane! Oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
Some people, they like to go out dancing
And other peoples, they have to work, Just watch me now!
And there's even some evil mothers
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt
Y'know that, women, never really faint
And that villains always blink their eyes, woo!
And that, y'know, children are the only ones who blush!
And that, life is just to die!
And, everyone who ever had a heart
They wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who ever played a part
Oh wouldn't turn around and hate it!
Sweet Jane! Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane!
Heavenly wine and roses
Seems to whisper to her when he smiles
Heavenly wine and roses
Seems to whisper to her when she smiles
La lala lala la, la lala lala la
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane

Old English Tapestries
Sunset in the Hudson Valley was a heavenly display of warm generosity
Driving into Pennsylvania we started to feel the road from Newport, R.I.
and may have even brought that Atlantic gail besieging our Volvo wagon.
It was evident we needed to pull over to eat, drink, shower and sleep.
We were tired however still stimulated from being highly aware from travel.
This spring night warranted hot toddies. I downed three or four and ate ribs.
My eyes also fed me and catapulted me back in time as a fellow into an old
English Tapestry on show at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London from June
14 to 28
For four centuries this magnificent tapestry remained hidden from public knowledge.
It was only thanks to dogged detective work by an art dealer that it was rediscovered in the U.S. and brought back to Britain, where it will be displayed this month before going on sale with its sevenfigure price tag.
Sheldon's craftsmen were mainly Dutch Protestants who had fled religious persecution in their homeland.
"The modern-day equivalent of the first owner would be the equivalent of an extremely-rich hedge fund manager buying a Picasso," says Will Bennett, spokesman for the Grosvenor House Art and Antiques Fair where it will be displayed.
The wool tapestry with silk highlights is one of only around 20 ever made by Sheldon. Only a small number have survived and few are in such good condition, since it has not been exposed to daylight or smoke.
Art experts believe the image portrayed is based on idealism rather than the harsh reality.
For example, the castle in the centre of the piece is based not on any genuine English home but was almost certainly taken from an image of King Solomon's Palace printed in a German version of the Bible produced in 1564 by Jost Amman.
The work also contains several of Sheldon's trademark designs - such as the intricate border featuring gargoyles and coats of arms - yet despite this, it has only recently been revealed as an example of the tapestry-maker's work.
Around the palace a hunting party gallops through woodland glades full of wildlife, swans swim serenely across a lake, and a man with an early type of gun outrages anglers by firing it at some ducks and frightening the fish.
And so walking years later walking with the big little Lhasa Apso into an autumn morning that has lifted the dark veil of late October night
revealing a tranquil scene of a 21st century village along the Ohio River from the city of Pittsburgh
with valleys full of unforgettable life.
I have my own morning soliloquy transacting:
"Fall flourishes with pheasants for peasants and yet it's winter who is the victor - in its acts like a real baron."

My eyes also fed me and catapulted me back in time as a fellow into an old
English Tapestry on show at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London from June
14 to 28
More than 15ft wide and almost 6ft high, it is a work of art, a portrait of Elizabethan life and a triumph of craftsmanship.
Not to mention worth a million pounds.For four centuries this magnificent tapestry remained hidden from public knowledge.
It was only thanks to dogged detective work by an art dealer that it was rediscovered in the U.S. and brought back to Britain, where it will be displayed this month before going on sale with its sevenfigure price tag.
The intricately woven masterpiece was created in the Cotswolds workshop of William Sheldon, considered the finest tapestry maker of the 16th century. It probably took between one and two years to produce.
Art historians believe it was most probably made to order between 1580 and 1590 for a landowner or merchant to hang above a panelled baseboard in a Tudor country house.Sheldon's craftsmen were mainly Dutch Protestants who had fled religious persecution in their homeland.
"The modern-day equivalent of the first owner would be the equivalent of an extremely-rich hedge fund manager buying a Picasso," says Will Bennett, spokesman for the Grosvenor House Art and Antiques Fair where it will be displayed.
The wool tapestry with silk highlights is one of only around 20 ever made by Sheldon. Only a small number have survived and few are in such good condition, since it has not been exposed to daylight or smoke.
'It is one of the most important Sheldon tapestries to have survived. It is a stupendous thing'
It was designed to provide a lyrical and often humorous picture of English country life during the reign of Elizabeth I.Art experts believe the image portrayed is based on idealism rather than the harsh reality.

Re-launching the Past to Create the Future? Good or bad for Profits & Culture?
It's an interesting move. And we get the gist: a high fashion-focused magazine for men, aimed at men of a certain age who might remember M in its glory days or younger men who want to enjoy a magazine printed on paper. It also makes sense since there's a dearth of American high fashion men's magazines. http://www.theatlanticwire.com
Re-launching the Past to Create the Future? Good or bad for Profits & Culture?
I certainly read M: The Civilized Man and learned to appreciate great tweeds & classic European American looks. This magazine definitely influenced my view of fashion & pop culture.
I read JFKJr's George Magazine to shape my politics. (Wish it had more time here on this planet).
I'd like to see both of these magazines make a comeback via a re-launch. I think it would be a positive source of content for impressionable young male minds who could use examples of what to aspire to for the next level in becoming a modern day man of good character.

Cover Me Up
Cover Me Up by Rusted Root off the new album The Movement (on tour now) = listen here @
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ehu617s2Sjg
Drowning Clowns will be opening for Rusted Root when they roll through Pittsburgh, PA Nov. 7th = Will be a real great show as Liz Berlin and Dirk Miller are in Drowning Clowns with some real mighty fine players & friends like MIke Speranzo, Frank Spadafora, "Shaggy" and pro-skateboarder Evan Smith (what Evan lacks in age & experience with the rest of the band he sensibly balances with disciplined maturity). I would describe Drowning Clowns as global-cosmic-music skateboarders can use for their pro videos and have viewed millions of times -Americana.
