Sinister: If you wanna be a martyr...try harder!

[Walkn10 at xxx.com]

I'd like to thank the lovely soul who used a Braid lyric as her subject line 
last week as it lead me to dust off my copy of "Frames and Canvas" and 
re-discover what a great record that is.  Its a shame that as of August 
they'll be calling it quits...alas.  I know someone else was going on and on 
about Rainer Maria awhile back, and being a huge Rilke fan I went and picked 
up the "New York 1955" 7" and its quite good.  The two songs sound a bit 
similar on first listen but I like the girl/guy vocals alot.  Does anyone 
have their new album and is it anything like these two songs?  
I got a haircut today and for whatever reason the very nice lady doing the 
cutting ended my newly born sideburns' short life.  They were coming in so 
nice and scraggly until today, so I'm a bit down about it right now.  She 
didn't even ask...just 'snip,snip' and they were gone.  They will be missed.  
Does any future Biologists out there know whether peanut butter or another 
equally high source of protein really does make hair grow faster?  Someone 
told me that once...
Unfortunately I couldn't make the DC picnic this past Sat but I heard it was 
aces so I'm glad.  Croquet matches 20 people large sounds very awesome so I'm 
really sad I missed that.  Hopefully "Picnic Organizer Extrordinaire" Christa 
or someone with equal parts gumption and resolve can set one up for August.  
When do the DC cherry blossoms bloom?
Any DC and MD listees keep an eye out for a compilation CD coming out this 
summer entitled "Spitting Seeds V: The Best Maryland has to offer" or 
something along those lines.  My band Poplar Ridge has a contribution 
entitled "Great Scott" which is our homage to Michael J. Fox and the 
legendary Back to the Future trilogy.  I'm sure we're among the best MD has 
to offer but we're on it, its a cheap disc and we may being playing some 
shows up and down the East Coast to support it so we may run into some you 
hopefully.
Well my parents are telling me to bugger off so I will...
