LYRICS:
But the rocket has to be many things, it must answer to a number of different shapes in the dreams of those who touch it – in combat, in tunnel, on paper – it must survive heresies shining, unconfoundable . . . and heretics there will be: Gnostics who have been taken in a rush of wind and fire to chambers of the Rocket-throne . . . Kabbalists who study the Rocket as Torah, letter by letter – rivets, burner cup and brass rose, its text is theirs to permute and combine into new revelations, always unfolding . . . Manicheans who see two Rockets, good and evil, who speak together in the sacred idiolalia of the Primal Twins (some say their names are Enzian and Blicero) of a good Rocket to take us to the stars, an evil Rocket for the World’s suicide, the two perpetually in struggle.

la monte young says 'hi'
ignore that killedinaduel post. people that only hear 'nothing is' as 5 seconds on loop are people that dont have the ear to appreciate my bloody valentine, a band that is so much better than all other bands that it seems audacious that other groups consider themselves "bands" and think they make "music" like mbv does. haha i laugh at myself when i think about how i listened to other stuff in the last 20 years and how watered down and lame it was by comparison.

hi, lamonte young, i'm a big fan. i have the well-tuned piano and.. .well, that's it really. this sounds like a good piece tho:
"Bring a bale of hay and a bucket of water onto the stage for the piano to eat and drink. The performer may then feed the piano or leave it to eat by itself. If the former, the piece is over when the piano has been fed. If the latter, it is over after the piano eats or decides not to." - Piano Piece for David Tudor #1
Hey, was wondering, is john cage as boring irl as his music? guy's almost as boring as... get this.. as... *snicker*... the bloody valenteens!

Probably true
"Personally," he smiles. "I intend to react to it most disrespectfully."
that sounds like it's straight out of that pynchon novel
