The roaring

Last night I saw Mount Eerie play a set of quiet songs. I was hoping for some crashingly noisy fuzz to blow out my eardrums too, but it was just Phil and Nicholas Krgovich playing some of the softer songs in a folk venue, and getting only as noisy as one guitar and a keyboard could allow. Yet the quiet of it was brilliant. Something about the way he sings seems so disarmingly honest and humble and intimate. His lyrics are pretty delicious too.

There's quite a prolific amount of music he's made and different bands he's sung with, and never a bad song. His artwork is great too! I'm a little bit in awe of him.

Drawing plans all night


A thread of blue light
Draped a brewery one night,

But here memory is murky.

From basement to roof we went.
It was with the fireworks and liqour
That my memory bent.

We wobbled back over a fence,
Skirted the river,
Handed the building to the pigeons

And to the past tense.  

Sleep covered the events,
It poked black moth-holes in the fabric,
And in a delicious muddle I woke.

I searched my pockets for clues.   
I found:
A tarot card, a map of the stars
And some dirt-caked shoes.

True story (a poet i'm not).



               














I love this song.

 ~ Scan the stars,
Spin it tight.
Measure all the angles (You make it)
Ride your bike all night (You make it right)
Read the book,
Draw plans all night,
All night ~~

The books

Are so wonderful.
And they have some of the best videos. Official ones, fan-made ones.. Oh they are brilliant and relaxing. Why not while away an afternoon watching them?

 


  Who knew golf could be this entertaining


PS. Read eat sleep.

Into the night

Pillows, rum, biscuits, incense sticks, a hot drink, books, a leaking green biro.
A bath. Steam.
A slightly eerie soundtrack.
Plotting an extravagant breakfast for tomorrow.
These are peaceful nighttime things
