Sinister: aislers, san francisco spring is summeriffic

[Ian Connelly]

anyone else on the list going to see the aislers set in san francisco
tonight? probably a long shot, but who knows. but there'll be a group of
us  downing beer and bourbon at the edinburgh castle around the corner
before the doors open. there was a great write-up of the aislers in the
local paper this week featuring a quote from stevie jackson calling them
'one of the best bands in america.'

i'm sitting here today 'working from home,' which is a marvellous idea and
which everyone who's compelled to work should do once a week. you can do
it with your shoes off. you can do it with your own pot of
industrial-strength coffee. you can do it with henry's dress playing at an
indiscreet volume. you can do it whilst two manic housecats fighting for
dominance use you as an obstacle in their steeplechase. i'm dishevelled
and a bit hungover from band practice and dj-ing last night - it was my
friend's last night dj-ing at Radio over in oakland, and he let me on the
tables for a dizzying hour or so. most of what i played was crap, but
'eighties fan' sounded incredible at high volume in the crowded bar.

ah, i've had enough 'work' for the morning. off into the sunshine of the
castro in search of lunch.
