Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed
So I'm writing this blurb about our pal Nick and I realize, hey, he's coming to town and there are several of us here...and I've been meaning to hold a FAP here anyway since I got back (and since only DB and I managed to make it to the July 4 one)...so what think, everyone? Wanna see the show and/or have dinner/drinks fore/aft?

M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes, but on ONE CONDITION.

Momus and I will have a photo taken of us in trucker hats.

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I will provide them.

One is a cheapo fluorescent orange mesh with a small plastic kitty safety-pinned to it

The other says "Texas".

I will allow Momus to choose which one he wants to wear.

(One more rule. We must wear them sideways and sloppily.)

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:27 (twenty-two years ago)

And yes I'll be there, and look forward to the FAP. :)

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:27 (twenty-two years ago)

i was trying to get resources to come together, but cannot.
ask momus about love for me.

anthony easton (anthony), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Go forth and enjoy, my merry men....and disregard any faint waves of envy from the South

Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 31 July 2003 19:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Should we gleefully inform him of this tomorrow night or do we figure he'll know in advance anyway? ;-)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:03 (twenty-two years ago)

if he's reading this he'll know. (hi Nick!)

make it three trucker hats, DB, and you're so on.

M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Warn him, Raggett.

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:24 (twenty-two years ago)

lyra63? oh ronny? layna andersen? js williams? jen nonstop? anyone?

M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:25 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll be at the show, possibly accompanied by my husband Doug, ace spider relocator. And I will have a PRESENT for Nick.

Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Warn him, Raggett.

I've heard of this Raggett, I'll pass it on to him.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

If the above sounded like I was going to present him with a spider, no, I'm not. So don't be scared & cancel the show and stuff. It is a nice thing.

Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

is he coming to detroit this time thru or not?

Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 1 August 2003 00:22 (twenty-two years ago)

If the trucker hats are coming, I'm bringing my SLR to document it. :-)

lyra (lyra), Friday, 1 August 2003 02:30 (twenty-two years ago)

OK... so Elysian Brewery then? It's pretty much the obvious choice.

donut bitch (donut), Monday, 4 August 2003 18:17 (twenty-two years ago)

(slight ulterior motive.. someone in Sientific American is having his birthday party there that night as well, and this could meld into another party and become a SUPERFAP!.. but it doesn't have to)

donut bitch (donut), Monday, 4 August 2003 18:18 (twenty-two years ago)

that sounds good to me. what time?

M Matos (M Matos), Monday, 4 August 2003 23:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm guessing it depends on when Momus can have dinner... given soundchecks and all that. Dinner will have to end before doors open for the show, which would be around 9:30pm(?). So maybe dinner should start around 7pm or earlier?

donut bitch (donut), Monday, 4 August 2003 23:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Have you already had a chance to see if he can join you? Just drop him an e-mail, I'm thinking he probably has friends there who might have already made plans for him.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 4 August 2003 23:52 (twenty-two years ago)

I highly recommend this show, Momus was great in L.A.

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 4 August 2003 23:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Have you already had a chance to see if he can join you? Just drop him an e-mail, I'm thinking he probably has friends there who might have already made plans for him.

E-MAIL? HOW PLEBEIAN! Ok, sure. I'll try and do that tonight if someone else doesn't first.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 00:09 (twenty-two years ago)

So dinner is Elysian at 7 PM? I might not be able to stay for the concert, though- work has been killing me, arrrggh launch weeks.

lyra (lyra), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 01:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, me, John Fashion Flesh and Rroland are looking for somewhere to crash in Seattle / Olympia after the show, if anyone has a spare room please tell us! Rroland snores, but apart from that we're a delight to spend the night with.

I just spoke with Mr. D. Bitch and he might be able to help y'all! But I'll let him post further on that front.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 04:52 (twenty-two years ago)

momus, i sent you an email

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 05:05 (twenty-two years ago)

How big is this Chop Suey? Should we get advanced tickets? Can we get in free with presents for the star?

Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Can we get in free with presents for the star?

Prolly not, but cash to bribe the door staff would be the next best thing.

Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Tuesday, 5 August 2003 17:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Allrightie... well, are we still on for 7pmish at the Elysian Brewery thursday evening? I will be getting there via bus after work, so given the unpredictable nature of Seattle traffic, i might more realistically make it by 7:30pm, myself, but we'll see.

and I emailed Nick about this as well, finally..(doh!). Hopefully he and the posse can make it, but if not, it would be nice to see the gang again. :)

All details for Elysian Brewery at this link here. We're meeting at the location on Pike & 13th, obviously.


donut bitch (donut), Wednesday, 6 August 2003 16:12 (twenty-two years ago)

sounds good, see you all there

M Matos (M Matos), Wednesday, 6 August 2003 22:37 (twenty-two years ago)

We will be there, albeit probably late (8ish?).

Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Thursday, 7 August 2003 06:13 (twenty-two years ago)

OK, word from Momus for making the pre-show dinner is: maybe! It really depends on how late or early his soundcheck is supposed to be. Since the Elysian is just a block away from the venue anyway, I could just walk over to the venue first and see if Nick is there, then just say "Hey, if you get some time, swing over here and say hi" and take it from there.

Chester, I never got your email. try again ---> GRO . ICUK @ MNAIRB ---> reverse it, crunch it, then lower case it. fremme neppa venuti frutti

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 7 August 2003 20:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Sure this, Gro.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 7 August 2003 20:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Man, that made even LESS sense.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 7 August 2003 20:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks nairB, I will put my thang down flip it and resend it tomorrow probably.

Momus if the three of you still need a place to stay there's a house in Olympia you could have all to yourselves for the night, if you're willing to put up with a hyperactive dog and a scary ass fucking puppet that crouches in one corner. Email synkroniceties -at- yahoo dot com if you're interested.

chester (synkro), Thursday, 7 August 2003 20:52 (twenty-two years ago)

scary ass fucking puppet

*coughs*

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 7 August 2003 22:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Aw Ned, you're missing out. FAO Schwarz and Toys R' Us's around the country can't keep RECTO and PROCTO in stock!

donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 7 August 2003 22:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Is the lube a separate purchase?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 7 August 2003 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)

*laughs* As long as you buy a case or two

Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 7 August 2003 22:55 (twenty-two years ago)

There's no ass fucking like scary puppet ass fucking.

Dario Perry-Argento (synkro), Thursday, 7 August 2003 23:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, my scary puppet-ass self is unfortunately sick. I'm not going to make it. Tell Nick I say "hi" (in a pitiable sickly tone of voice).

Layna Andersen (Layna Andersen), Friday, 8 August 2003 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

So will there be trucker hats??

lyra (lyra), Friday, 8 August 2003 00:43 (twenty-two years ago)


Ron where are you? We missed you!

Trucker hats were worn, but my camera's batteries died. DB & Momus had cameras, though, so perhaps there will photos posted tomorrow. :-)

lyra (lyra), Friday, 8 August 2003 03:28 (twenty-two years ago)

sorry for not coming. :(
i suxx i r all gray

ron (ron), Friday, 8 August 2003 05:33 (twenty-two years ago)

ohh these are must see pics

chaki (chaki), Friday, 8 August 2003 06:50 (twenty-two years ago)

post pics!

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 8 August 2003 06:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Momus if the three of you still need a place to stay there's a house in Olympia you could have all to yourselves for the night

haha boy this will teach me not to skim

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 8 August 2003 06:53 (twenty-two years ago)

so is he still in the state? no wonder i've been so edgy the last couple days. "there's been a great disturbance in the force..."

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 8 August 2003 06:53 (twenty-two years ago)

come on now, he's a perfectly nice guy no matter what you think of his music/opinions.

the show was fine, but the undoubted highlight was the drunk, arrhythmic couple in front of DB and I dancing.

grate pics forthcoming from DB, fwiw

M Matos (M Matos), Friday, 8 August 2003 07:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Jess in bringing on the Nick hate shockah, zzz zzz zzz.

suzy (suzy), Friday, 8 August 2003 07:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Yo, rroland, fashion flesh y momus are at my pad right now. They say hi. :)

Fun times, fun pics. thank you matos lyra momus and the weird couple in front of us who stepped on Matos's foot at the show.

donut bitch (donut), Friday, 8 August 2003 08:43 (twenty-two years ago)

MICROSOFT HEADQUARTERS ALERT

"We have a report of a Momus in the vicinity, over. *crack*"

(Wanted to thank the Momus operatives for dropping me off at work today :) )

donut bitch (donut), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Was he amazed? Did he take pictures?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:54 (twenty-two years ago)

They are still driving around in the forest looking for Microelves as we speak.

donut bitch (donut), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I have visions.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

(i will be posting pics later tonight.. i have a little of everybody. I had lost my Texas trucker hat, though, so i didn't bring it so the legendary photo couldn't technically be taken, however hats were abound and ablaze. The orange kitty trucker hat certainly was there, as was Momus's straw mesh hat.)

donut bitch (donut), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks so much to Donut Bitch Brian for the sleeping space and the tour of Microsoft's hidden campuses. We are now in a car lot in downtown Redmond where I've hacked into an unprotected wifi network. We just visited the most unfriendly pawn shop ever, with a big sign in the window saying 'No loaded guns', and an old sourpuss standing there in front of a rack of shotguns scowling at us. I have to say this kind of forest-campus sprawl, with cafes called bluntly folksy things like'Friendly Fibres' and 'The Brown Bag Cafe' (because they put your purchases in a brown bag, I suppose) is fascinatingly alien to me, as was the conversation at the FAP thing last night. I never felt more European!

Will probably check the Richard Foreman festival in Seattle tonight before heading to Olympia tonight to (hopefully -- Chester?) sleep with the ass fucking puppet. So Jess Harvell, watch out for jarring feng shui!

Momus (Momus), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Sorry Momus, the buggering puppet offer was just for last night, and I'm off to Portland for the weekend. Get in touch if you need a place to stay there, though I can't promise anything bigger a loveseat and a bathtub, and the amenities are limited to a non-anus-nuzzling cat.

chester (synkro), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:38 (twenty-two years ago)

One knows no worse hell than an old skool Redmond sourpuss (who sells guns) scorned.

donut bitch (donut), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

So I drive to Portland the next day and check out the tribute to Richard Foreman (avant NY theater director and father of the Ontological Theater on St Mark's Place) and who should be performing in it but Chris Piuma, ilXor!

Momus (Momus), Saturday, 9 August 2003 04:58 (twenty-two years ago)

How cool! Did you meet up? He was down that he can't attend your show tomorrow because he will be performing that night.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 9 August 2003 05:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Not only did we meet up, we ended up in a Foreman piece together tugging at opposite ends of a tug-o-war rope!

Momus (Momus), Saturday, 9 August 2003 05:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Hurrah!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 9 August 2003 05:27 (twenty-two years ago)

PHOTOS PLEASE

M Matos (M Matos), Saturday, 9 August 2003 16:55 (twenty-two years ago)

The nuder the better. Er wait.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 9 August 2003 16:58 (twenty-two years ago)

DB: trucker hat photos, please!

lyra (lyra), Saturday, 9 August 2003 20:37 (twenty-two years ago)

These photos are all by Donut Bitch. They depict deranged singer Momus wearing a jacket over his head while singing 'Beowulf (I Am Deformed)', sceptical critic M. Matos and Tetris-besting gamester Donut Bitch at Seattle Chop Suey, August 7th, 2003.

Momus (Momus), Saturday, 9 August 2003 22:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Prophets, seers and sages, all of 'em!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 9 August 2003 22:51 (twenty-two years ago)

And here's Momus and Chris Piuma having a tug'o'war at Performance Works Northwest's Richard Foreman Mini-Festival in Portland, August 9th.

Momus (Momus), Saturday, 9 August 2003 22:57 (twenty-two years ago)

The blurry guy with the bubbles is my boyfriend, by the way.

Here's another pic, for those who haven't seen it:

that photo is now my desktop background; thank you

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:51 (twenty-two years ago)

though i am a bit disappointed momus didn't rock the meshback too

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:52 (twenty-two years ago)

i want you to know that my previous desktop background - mc skat kat and crew - had been around for SIX MONTHS, possibly the longest of any background ever in the history of my pc ownership.

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:53 (twenty-two years ago)

brian looks more like fred durst than i ever really wanted him to

matos looks a bit like a yokel serial killer

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:54 (twenty-two years ago)

momus and i have the same arms

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:56 (twenty-two years ago)

finally! we come together

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 07:56 (twenty-two years ago)

b-but simultaneous orgasm is a myth

mark s (mark s), Sunday, 10 August 2003 08:55 (twenty-two years ago)

she was just trying to not hurt your feelings

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 08:57 (twenty-two years ago)

that, and the fact that three thousand year old mummy princesses have a hard time achieving orgasm anyway

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 10 August 2003 08:57 (twenty-two years ago)

tell me abt it!!

mark s (mark s), Sunday, 10 August 2003 08:58 (twenty-two years ago)

you look like cornholio in that one picture, momus!

Tad (llamasfur), Sunday, 10 August 2003 09:11 (twenty-two years ago)

"he's not done! he's got more in him! waitress, bring my man another capuccino... yeah, leave the whole pot..."

ron (ron), Sunday, 10 August 2003 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Donut Bitch looks so much like Durst in that picture that it is a little frightening.

Larcole (Nicole), Sunday, 10 August 2003 15:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Well maybe this is a good Durst. You know, a reincarnation.
