Hey, I'll be in New York, New York next Monday for the My Bloody Valentine show. (They aren't playing Boston, and I am suspecting that their set at All Tomorrow's Parties NY will not be enough to satisfy 16 years of waiting.) I'm planning to stay around for another night (at the glamorous Newark Airport Wyndham Garden Hotel) to do some sightseeing and general soaking in of New Yorkishness. So, if you're around on Tuesday 9/23, or the afternoon of Wednesday 9/24, and want to hang out, let me know. Also, feel free to point out some sights to see that are off the beaten path (or even some that are on it; I've never been to the Guggenheim, for example). I was vaguely thinking about visiting The Dream House:
In the concurrent sound environment, La Monte Young presents The Base 9:7:4 Symmetry in Prime Time When Centered above and below The Lowest Term Primes in The Range 288 to 224 with The Addition of 279 and 261 in Which The Half of The Symmetric Division Mapped above and Including 288 Consists of The Powers of 2 Multiplied by The Primes within The Ranges of 144 to 128, 72 to 64 and 36 to 32 Which Are Symmetrical to Those Primes in Lowest Terms in The Half of The Symmetric Division Mapped below and Including 224 within The Ranges 126 to 112, 63 to 56 and 31.5 to 28 with The Addition of 119, a periodic composite sound waveform environment created from sine wave components generated digitally in real time on a custom-designed Rayna interval synthesizer.
...but sadly it's only open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Maybe next time.

[Yes, this post's subject is a Genesis reference. I am that much of a geek.]

Re: in 7/8 time or whatever


Oh! I guess I never paid much attention to the lyrics. (It's "cuddled the porcupine", which is why I wasn't finding anything with Google.)

Apparently Trail of Dead do a cover of this song. Maybe they'll play it at ATP!

Ha ha, clearly I didn't pay enough attention to the lyrics either.
