Hey everyone, we missed their tour, but Radiohead is going to headline the first night of the Coachella festival on May 1st. This will be their only concert in the US during 2004, and we're still accepting donations, so who wants to help out?

I come to you because you all are such nice people and I thought I'd plead my case with you. How many of you have heard Radiohead's new album?? Yeah!!! And how many of you love it?? Alright!! Now how many of you are going to see them live? Well, whatever that number may be, it will be 2 less than it should be if all doesn't go well for me (or us) :O
I'm in LA and I want to see them play here in September. Only problem is, my friend that wants to see them lives in Oregon :-\ We're both poor college kids and can't really afford (even between the 2 of us) to get his arse down here in order to see them (and it's not like he could see them in his state, they're not playing there).
This is where you all come in! I know I'm not a very active poster and you may think, why should I help you? Well, because you'd know you did a good deed :D Josh (my friend) will need about $140 in order to get down here and back...If any of you could find it in your hearts to help donate that money, it would be greatly appreciated :D If each of you donated just a couple dollars, we'd be able to afford it and you'd have helped make 2 CMers very happy :D
Thanks for listening, guys!


Chances of that working on the CM are slim to none, as 90% of the CM population are also broke college students (or Canadians, who's money is as useless as toilet paper :D )

Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home.

Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

(Oh, and our new $20s don't count as multicolored cos the colors are so muted and just plain oogly. Blech.)

We used to have pound notes. But they changed to coins in about 1982. I'm not sure why.
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.
