Good lord, I should start writing a sociallite column.

I'd probably love em'.<br/><br/>I was the fake joe mathlete. I sold thirty dollars of index card art, all for IBP, but some people still owe me two bucks..like Joe Mathlete himself who didn't pay me for his requested drawing of "Willie Nelson riding on the back of a wooly mammoth smoking a doob in outer space." Pay up Joe.<br/><br/>(Killian, like the gentleman he is, paid promptly for his art.) Hey ramon who was playing the proggy, jazzy, deady, stuff? I’d probably love em’.

My friend's older brother had it and a cd copy of <i>Meddle</i>. He would play the album and watch the video because the video didn't have good sound. I'd like to hear a dub of the Gilmore DSotM solos from the studio footage over the final solo on the recording. I went to Pompeii when I was twelve, it was trippy enough without Pink Floyd.<br/><br/>Mr. Mathlete is a busy dude. I got to play with him again with the IBP gala band on Saturday. He changed costumes three times. And there was another Joe Mathlete present. I bought a drawing on an index card from the fake Joe Mathlete because he undercut Joe's prices. I asked for a picture of Joe Mathlete singing "amoebas are animals." It's now hanging in the BMOL practice space. I want to write Joe Mathlete one more time. Joe Mathlete.<br/><br/>I loved the cardboard show and Charlie did a great job of summing it up. I'll put something up as soon as I can but I don't have the usb for the digital with me so it will have to wait a couple of days. Too bad I didn't run into Mr. Naked. How could I miss him?<br/><br/>I want to do the show again in December with a little more prep and have some bands play. We could certainly have had more people out. Didn't help that it was a rainy night. Great great work all around. I was damn proud.<br/><br/>Ramone was great btw with the Redo band (and so was Mike Switzer), don't listen to him bad mouth himself. His droney distortion played well against the twang and jangle Brando and I usually do. Reminded me of the dS show that Roberto played. Lots of FUN!

I love it whenever I get to see an art show involving a number of very different takes on the same rather unique concept. Some of them kept a largely consistent thread running through them (like Justin and Olivia), some of them featured a great link between artwork and title (Mike), some of them were photos (Rosa), and some of them were some of the oddest collage and/or 3-D compositions I've seen in a long time... I thoroughly enjoyed it. Of course, I missed seeing Mike there, and as I got involved in the Houston music scene a little too late to catch de Schmog I didn't really know which person was Killian and wasn't feeling social enough to figure it out (sorry Killian), but at least I got to say hi to Ramon and catch all the art. I didn't stick around to hear what the high school band sounded like; I only saw them setting up, but I had to remark to Ramon how I saw them in the performance room and thought it odd that they all seemed to look alike. All these skinny kids with the same dark curly hair. Maybe they were all brothers. It was just weird. Oh, and the cardboard art show was great.

Seriously, everyone should go check out the Mathletes whenever you get a chance... the songs are fun, and you never know what you're going to get. The Notsuoh show was, I am convinced, an anomaly even in that context: Joe had three different rhythm sections, an ad hoc choir (in choir robes even!), a horn section (me and Mike, natch), balloons with things written on them, a bandmember who included amongst her instruments a gun that shot bubbles, and covers of both "Dry the Rain" by the Beta Band and "Psycho Killer" by Talking Heads. I've also got to say I'm quite partial to his cover of "Linger" by the Cranberries. The Dimes still frequently play with Joe… they played the last three songs or so at his Notsuoh show.
