"You can never go home again, but you can identify what it was that you liked about your home and maintain those presences in your current life in a way that achieves an almost totally satisfying approximation."
From a
Chris Onstad interview in the New Yorker. Man, have I ever been not blogging. I have done and seen literally dozens of things in the last week or two that would have made for great blogging, things you would have found interesting, funny, or insightful, things that would have excited you and aroused your interest in things that you had previously not heard about, or knew of only slightly. But I blogged none of these things. And you know what? I feel fine. I feel good about it. I feel basically the same.
I want to tell you, however, that
Bend Sinister were awesome last night. They get better all the time and the new lineup is clearly totally in the zone. Naben's guitar parts are insanely bluesy all of a sudden. I only wish they'd played a few more new songs. People have heard their new album and tell me that it is epic. I eagerly await it.
