Hello Everyone!
Thanks for the happy birthday wishes. I spent my birthday on a flight from San Francisco to New York reading Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road.' Dont get me wrong, I am a HUGE fan of the apocalypse, but this takes a picture of the end of times way too f**king far. Babies on barbeque spits?
There is only pithy (and suspect) redemption at the end. In theaters this November (no joke).
I wanted to let everyone know that Dan Brantigan had surgery on his knee this morning and you should all send him messages of care and love while he is recuperating. It was his limping around and tripping over cables that caused the two power failures during Radiohead's set at the Outside Lands festival this weekend. Poor thing. We all wish him a speedy recovery so he can get back to his iron man training (again, no joke.)
Some things I wanted to mention:
A few new dates have been added for the fall tour. They are:
10/8 The Iron Horse Northampton, MA.
10/23 The Independent San Francisco, CA.
10/24 The Fillmore San Francisco, CA.
Whee!
Ameila Tovey, finest guerrilla filmmaker in all of Oz, did some fun videos with us backstage at Acer Arena. One is me doing a cover of 'Camp Out' by sky-rocketing-to-fame Brisband An Horse. Check them out and others at her space: www.shoottheplayer.com
I covered one half of the brilliant Justin Timberlake song 'Lovestoned' on prior tours and finally did a proper recording of it. MP3's of my version fell into the wrong hands and I got pitted against the man who brought sexy back in a battle of who is truly the greatest lovestoner. Thus far I'm still winning but the margin is getting smaller and smaller. Check out the feature and exercise your right to vote. For me.

Day Sleeper is playing a gig tomorrow night:
CD release party for Weller Grant and Adam Groves and the Stagecoach
The Annex, 152 Orchard St. 7:00
$10 gets you in and both records
Day Sleeper plays at the end of the eve
I have about 10 days off until I start touring again. Any suggestions as to what to do in NYC at summer's end?
love to all,
kaki
