SAN ONOFRE-Same time next year, lil ole yarnspinner you, John?!
Hey Big O,
What a definition of perilous dire straits this week has been. A fog! Sunday night I was hit with some sort of bug. I wasn’t sure if it was TB, polio, or leprosy. I was fit for an iron lung. I spent from Monday til Wednesday sliding into dream visions. And, my brother, they weren’t enlightening or visually stunning. No! These things were dull and uncomfortable. I dreamt my niece and her family were like the Joads from “The Grapes Of Wrath”. I had to push their jalopy up the San Bernardino Mountains. Nothing but broken inner tubes, metal wash basins, and feral chickens. The next dream was more depressing and went on for days. I was in a truly square conference room stuck at a cafeteria style folding table. The room was packed to the gills with evangelicals. All in polyester suits. Donald Trump was at a dias. He was bragging about himself. Then he started lecturing about his past lives through the eons. Dating back to ancient Egypt. I was feeling uncomfortable. I looked at my arm and noticed I was wearing an ugly brown suit.
I finally pulled myself out of the sick bed to take care of business. I was walking like the undead and had an I.Q. of even less. I passed a large hillbilly woman that was smoking a cigarette who gave me the stink eye. She was wearing a t-shirt that read “If you’re going to be salty then bring the tequila “.
If I had my 110% I would have talked about it when we talked; now follow me along here…
Vincennes. It’s the center of the universe. The whole burg believes if a nuclear war was to happen it would be the first place to be bombed.
Iggy Pop peeing in a drink and trying to serve it to a guy I used to work for. That is only the tip of the iceberg.
Joe South and his importance to me right now and the writing of this latest TH album. Plus all of his songs are self help odes. And I know nothing about that!
No album title yet. That’s how that one goes.
Playing Deep Blues Festival in Clarksdale, Mississippi this fall and hitting Memphis and elsewhere way down in the south.
And that’s all the news from this week. Joe Patt, the TH drummer, are headed to Madison, Wisconsin tomorrow to play a party for an Illuminati inspired beer brewery.
Until then!
