Well, I did what I had to do (tutor an athlete). Together, we read Act III of Hamlet. I attempted to fill him in on the nuances of Shakespeare's language and the subtle sexy jokes. Sometimes if I make the lewd language more evident by bringing attention to the words and explaining them... people find it more interesting.
I brought Andrew some pasta that I made. I loosely used a recipe from the Post Punk Kitchen... Skeleton recipes are the best kind. I then go nuts. At the Honor Roll Music house, I hung out with Read and talked about "the future." I am not sure where I am going to be next year. I know what I am going to do in late August. I am going to go to the Outlands Festival. I don't know where I will find the money... but I want to go. Tickets go on sale on Sunday. The artists announced so far are: Radiohead, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Beck, Wilco, Manu Chao, Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, Steve Winwood, Broken Social Scene, Regina Spektor, Devendra Banhart, Cold War Kids, Andrew Bird, M. Ward, ALO, Two Gallants, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, the Felice Brothers... I am excited. Regina Spektor is breathtaking. I saw her perform at the Astoria in London last Spring. I think it is something special when an artist talks from afar yet one feels like he/she is speaking to you and cares about you while you are in a throng of people. I had some great videos and pictures, but unfortunately, my computer crashed. So no dice.
Last weekend, Andrew and I held a party at our house. Airship Rocketship performed: our house was the final venue of their tour. Amy took some great pictures www.amy-cohen.com, business as usual. I ought to go read Goethe now. I am going to go read Goethe now... but not before posting more pictures.
