NICK EDDY RELENTS: July 2013

Wednesday, July 31, 2013

Think how happy these kids will be when Joe scores 1000 points this season

A brief trip through the junk mail:

Uh, came after "Ceremony"? Still too Martin Hannett-y, hadn't yet
achieve the right mix of northern drear and dancefloor transcendence yet...

Reasonable!

Tempting, this. It could glow on the Morrissey
bust nightly.

Litigator/carpenter

"I'm the best there is at what I do, no question."

"Just sent Snoopy out to the truck for a bowl of steam..."

Floor sammich

Fully expected this to be smeared on my amp, so yay.

Attention: all of those who wish to establish a Nick Eddy Museum

No need to build from scratch, then, for the house where I was raised is for sale!

Feel the dysfunction!

New word:

Chalcedony in green

Chalcedony: (n) a cryptocrystalline form of silica.

And I was pretty passionate about these

for about two months in 2006:

If you keep checking youtube long enough

someone will put up what you've been looking for:

Here comes Baxter

I wanted him to be called JustinBobby II, but anyway:

An exchange that occurred via text (hence the lazier than normal syntax):

True or false: you need this Morrissey bust?

I fear I must pass. [The Bride] would be too annoyed.

Natch. Maybe consider moving out? Just you and the plaster Morrissey?

Sort of a Lars and the real girl sequel

Yeah but more about a closet case and his fake head

Pick one

Let's change the blog avatar for the rest of the year. Pick one and vote in comments; in fact, shake your mother awake, I mean really frighten her, and then ask her as well:

"Light and airy!/old guy trying too hard" version or:

"Dark and dirty/Eminem coming onstage/Terminator
done on Asylum budget" version

Have you seen him?

Because he's out there:

At Dragons 5

With neighbors who volunteered on the alley sweep, which caused
the free tickets in the first place. Hip-hop semi-legend at left.

At Dragons 4

Argh! Just missed the Bun One!

At Dragons 3

The hat era of the evening:

"This is the part of the night, I guess, where I wear a freebie cap like every other
East D_____ hood rat, huh?"

"Don't worry, it's DIET!"

"These constant photo effects are tarnishing my natural
memories of things and causing much unnecessary
forced nostalgia. It's all very PKD, in a way."

At Dragons 2

These father and son moments which we blah blah blah

At Dragons 1

"Um...you call this 'pageantry?'"

On the way to the Dragons

We walked, no less. City life, etc.

A cloud

Can rain stop Joe?

I think not!

Gillian

Forgot to mention that the free book truck was out in force Saturday across from Rock Venue, and found this book (forget name, it's in the truck) with this author:

She sort of invented the whole "creepy nanny from The Omen" look, right? This book, wait, gonna look it up - it was Someone Else - is about "loss." AND she wrote a witchcraft handbook, of course.

Still alive!

Legend

MANDATORY

Oh, god, it was like a law (and maybe still is) that every incoming college freshman in 1987 had to have a copy of Legend. I had one, even. Cute girls be all "Oh, I love 'Three Little Birds,' you guys!"

Yesterday, I heard a "remix" of, shit...I forget which. Slightly-stale-already blips and bloops with Old Bob sounding slightly embarrassed for all involved popping in occasionally.

Next: that Atoms for Peace/Peter Tosh mashup!

A Nick Eddy app?

One of my brothers texted the other day:

When the f--k are you going to get a g--amn, motherf---ing, co-----king mobile app?

Another friend posits that she doesn't really have time for the blog all the time (such a commitment!), but would like an app that is like having me around, sort of. I think this is what she said, it was told to me secondhand. The gist of the app would be: slightly annoying in the morning, then throughout the day interesting little bits would plop out. Like a day with me!

C'MON, INVESTOR$!!!
