2:16 am


What happens when you mix half a pot of tea, stretching, a workout, and Sleep's Dopesmoker at 1:30 am? A great forking time is what happens.

It's good to realize that you can at least exert a little control over yourself. You can realize that you have little muscles and tendons that you never even dreamed of, even at 23, or 39, or 64, or 12. It just feels good to move, and to think.

Not a lot of profundity here, but I felt like writing. Also, the picture up top is of Al's bass rig from Sleep (and Om too, I reckon). That's eight 15" speakers there. That's six more than most people use. Ridiculous. And completely appropriate, for a band with a song called "Dopesmoker" that writhes around a single theme for 60 minutes without once getting boring.

  2. Amanda, I really should. I think that would get more than few points across.
