I sometimes have real problems getting to, and staying asleep. My mind usually races non stop for some reason, where I will think of totally random things, mostly all at the exact same time. Thoughts over lapping one another. No reason what so ever, and totally random.
I was up till 2 or so last night, and thought it would be funny to write down just a couple of the things that went through my head.
-the seat I sat in the theatre when we saw The Faculty back in 98
-how we used to sniff Jello powder back in grade 6 and we thought it was hilarious when we would spit out bright red strawberry goobers
-the GBV strokes David cross poster Nicole bought me back in college
-when is my next oil change
-how wind turbines cause huge annoying shadows on the people that live near them
-that old lady I saw get hit by a car when I was in Croatia back in 94
-why doesn't the cable in my room work
-that cigarette burn I got on my hand during that trail of dead show at call the office
-pavement in NYC
-will the new Simon Pegg movie be good
-why does my ceiling fan make so much more noise when the light is on
-should I make coffee tomorrow or just have orange juice
-the first time I herd Taster by Grandaddy. On my discman at the bus terminal back in high school
-why can't I sleep? It's 1:30am
-why is the bass lacking in our surround sound system
-that time we drank vodka water in a rental van before a Steve Malkmus and The Jicks show in Detroit
-paying bills
-should I sleep on my black pillow and hug the striped one or vice versa?
-how good the cd booklet smelled when I first bought The Sebadoh
-how I should make a list of all the random shit that runs through my head, often overlapping one another, as I try to sleep
-how awesome it is that Clair on Six Feet Under is listening to Built to Spill
-why do I eat genoa salami when it makes me poop at 5am
-how it sucked having pink eye
-how someone stole my Jim Rose Circus Sideshow VHS from James' locker in grade 10
-when will the weather stripping stop making that insanely loud suction cup noise whenever someone opens the door at 5am.
-what was the name of that chemical those tanks shot into the Waco compound
-the poor continuity when it came to the soccer ball they used in the movie Hot Shot
-that guy in Dayton where we discussed how Kevin Drew is kinda pompous now, and how he is the perfect embodiment of everything that is Toronto.
-when am I going to go to the dentist, and will it be the same guy
Here is a little teaser for GRATIFICATION TO PAVEMENT.
I spent the last two hours doing this, and it turned out pretty not bad given how fast I did it.
When is the first screening/drinking party?!

Billy Corgan is hilarious.
Alt-rock blowhard Billy Corgan has said some ridiculous things, but he's nearly outdone himself with a new batch of controversial tweets. On November 20, Corgan and his new version of Smashing Pumpkins will be opening for Pavement in Brazil. Shit's going to be awkward in the dressing rooms, however, as Corgan decided to openly diss the band on his Twitter account.
Here's the full blurb from Corgan's Twitter:
Just found out SP is playing with Pavement in Brazil. It's gonna be 1 of those New Orleans type funerals... I say that because they represent the death of the alternative dream, and we follow with the affirmation of life part... funny how those who pointed the big finger of 'sell out' are the biggest offenders now…yawn. they have no love... by the way, we'll be the band up there playing NEW songs because we have the love xx.
You may have the love, Corgan, but you actually don't have any original members involved with the Smashing Pumpkins. And, seriously, who knew "Range Life" would still hurt so many years later?
