Coolest Thing I Did this Week:
Saw Hobble put on the best show I've ever seen them do at
Emo's on Saturday night. I don't know if it was the mood,
the venue or the fact that the boys had played a set at Emo's
in Houston the night before to warm them up, but Oriah, Mike,
Gene and Tom were on fire Saturday night. Mike may be a bit
unusual sometimes in real life, but when he gets on stage,
like Oriah, he simply lets loose and goes for it. He was rocking
that night and Oriah was in rare form. He looked hot as fuck
and his vocals have never sounded better and more intense.
He sold those songs like they were gospel!
The boys usually play 35 minutes or so and the set seems
so damn short. Well, they played about 35 minutes Saturday
night and it wore me the fuck out! You could not help but
get into the groove Gene and Tom were laying down. The boys
opened with "8 Track Tape Player" and didn't stop through
a set that included faves like "Cowboy Song," "Blackmasking,"
"Gene's Song (Why You Never Home)," and the phenomenal closer
"Suicidal Blunder." I was in heaven.
Mike told me that he and Oriah have been working on their
second video for "Yoko Ono." From what I understand, it sounded
like an homage to Warhol's "Eat."
Lodger's Most Recent Poem
Adam
By eating the apple you have become Adam
You break over the threshold
Unto the vast purpleblue sky
Stiff with electricity
Your smoked soul cracks the mirror image
Breathe fire onto my island
Dark with unbearable nothingness
No wonder God is angry
You have replaced him
You have become god
Hark! Tomorrow is approaching
It has arrived
I am afraid But, at least,
far more alive than ever before
Until next time - that's a wrap Lodger2001
