Amanda Fucking Palmer


this one goes to somebody in...

 hotel near La Republique. that reminded me of Francesca.
and this also... amazing xylophone from Conor Oberst's concert on Sat.

The picture's far too big to look at, kid
Your eyes won't open wide enough
And you're constantly surrounded 
By the swirling stream of what is and what was
Well, we've all made our predictions 
But the truth still isn't out
But if you want to see the future
Go and stare into a cloud
And keep trying to find your way 
Out through that maze of memories
It all sort of looks familiar 
Until you get up close, then it's different clearly
But each time you turn a corner
You're right back where you were 
And your only hope is that forgetting 
Might make a door appear 
Is it your fear of being buried 
That makes you so afraid to speak? 
An avalanche of opinions 
Like the one that fell that I'm now underneath 
It was my voice that moved the first rock 
And I would do it all again
I mean, it's cool if you keep quiet
But I like singing 
So I'll be holding my note and stomping 
And strumming and feeling so very lucky
And there is nothing I know except a lifetime's one moment
And wishing will just leave you empty 
So you can try to live in darkness 
But you will never shake the light 
No, it will greet you every morning
Make you more aware with its absence at night 
When you're wrapped up in your blankets, baby
That comfortable cocoon 
But I've seen the day of your awakening, boy
And it's coming soon
So go ahead and lose yourself in liquor
And you can praise the clouded mind 
But it isn't what you're thinking, no
It's the course of history, your position in line 
You're just a piece of the puzzle
So I think you'd better find your place


KingKahn.

we went to sicily for the weekend. we actually went to hear KingKhan&the Shrines. sicily was just a place. favorite Mark's bend.
we arrived right on time. 9.30. flat. concert started at 2.30. next day, right? Annie was so pissed, she went to the backstage, asked: yo, when are you starting? 2.30. she came back to me. no, no way. no concert starts at 2.30. that can't be.
next scene: 2.30. kingkhan puts his glitter on and here they are. it starts!
it was amazing. energy. people. they are so free and so, well, they are not vain. their startdom is fictional  and they now where they are standing.
they are true heroes.
