UFOs and Shows

Sitting here wishing I knew a few of these songs better. I just sent Andy a text saying that I want to be like a steel trap. And it's true. Practice makes perfect and in my case it helps me with remembering the lyrics. Those pesky words. I said in a song the other day:

"My curse to play with all this alliteration/ die in the street like Edger Allan Poe/"

The curse part is relevant here. The Poe part is another story all together.

Last night we saw UFOs flying in the sky. Walking with our heads cocked back and stopping every few steps, we all saw it. They were very faint and could have almost passed for stars if one wasn't looking closely enough. They flew in a kind of zig-zag pattern that would occasionally jump backwards and then catch up to it's flight-path again. At first we thought it was just one, but then the one we were watching either jumped and disappeared, reappearing in another part of the sky, or another one appeared there in the sky. Not long after, we started to see many of them. Almost like the stars were melting. It was bizarre.

I went into the house and turned to the News Channels to see if there was a global incident of some kind (fingers crossed). There wasn't. Just some stuff about the oil spill and interview shows, the only things on those channels at 10 o'clock at night. I then had the thought that maybe these beings were coming to help us solve the problem in the Gulf of Mexico. And maybe even the Problem on Earth in general.

We left my house and went back to Eliza's to sit outside by the pool. It seemed there was less activity in the sky now. Noticed some regular aircraft flying around. Strobe lights and all that. We went back inside for Irish Car-Bombs and instantly it was already 1 AM! Had the aliens abducted us? Had we just experienced missing time?! I wandered home and wondered how it had happened like how the audience wonders how the magician performs his magic.

Sitting here watching The Bonus Show on Howard TV (Howard Stern's OnDemand channel) with a half full cup of coffee sitting near me. I'm branching off into several different projects, but all I can talk about right now is Joker. I'm farming my brain for information and ideas from the stories I've read. Even re-reading a few important ones. Watching The Animated Series and looking for samples. Need to track down the Mask of the Phantasm one. I recall that there were a few good pieces of dialogue in it.

Tales From The 21st Century is finished and the mastering just might be finished. I'm working on memorizing these lyrics because these songs are very fun to perform. (Due to The New Style*, the lyrics do not just appear in my memory banks anymore.) Trying to figure out which songs from More I should be performing as well. Open Mic Shows will be happening soon. Stay tuned.

*Editor's Note: Eric quit writing raps and has been recording everything as it comes to him. See issue #7 (November 2009).

Mastering TALES FROM THE 21ST CENTURY

I'm almost done. 28 songs. At about 69 minutes. Mastering and tweaking the last pesky 7.

Joker is at about 13 songs. Partyman. House of Cards. Capes. My Inner Sanctum.

Need to get this youtube page popping. Stay tuned.

Now diving headfirst into the Joker album, I'm mixing and wrapping up Tales From The 21st Century. My good friend Marisa is drawing an idea of mine for the cover. Tales will have anywhere from 27-30 songs.

We will be performing July 10th at a "Metalfest" in BF. Its $10 at the door but bring a $20 because you're gunna be buying my CD with that other $10. This show is a must just for my antics alone. ClassicEricFishOutOfWater. Let's do this, Judas.

I just walked upstream through a funeral procession.
