Fallin’ Ditch Finally Got His Bones.

Rarely to the proper exaltation, but always of the utmost inspiration, Don van Vliet is one of my favorite singers, as well as the leader of one of te greatest bands of the 60’s-70’s. —

Or should I say WAS.

Without a single fucking soul informing me, I checked Captain Beefheart’s Wikipedia page every three weeks every month for the last 6 monthes, for inspiration, and to see if any recent developements had taken place.

I was talking to Jeff Mooridian, Jr., drummer of noise-rock band Vaz (Which I stylize VAZ or V@Z), and upon going to his page to send a message, I saw a few Beefheart videos, Don’s knowing gaze and second-thase goatee-and-hat attire drawing my eye in. As I further inspected it and nodded my head to a live version of ‘She’s Too Much For My Mirror’, which comes from Beefheart and the Magic Band’s 1969 avant-garde masterpiece Trout Mask Replica, one of my favorite albums of all time, in the same league as “The Velvet Underground and Nico” by The Velvet Underground.

I scrolled down about four centimeters, and I see an epitaph for Don Van Vliet, the enigmatic Captain Beefheart.

Don was a megalomaniac, who would do anything to see his vision followed to the letter. He frequently bullied other members of his band, including voice actor on our show, and former Magic Band bassist, Mark Boston, (Rockette Morton). He lied about his life, and was very stubborn to very genuine people who cared about him. But as it stands, as is the case with The United States of America’s Joe Byrd, and the Smashing Pumpkins’ Bill Corgan, it seems with talent, sometimes also comes an unavoidable need to self-destruct, and hurt those around you.

Despite this, Don was one of the most truly influential singers and inventive minds out there, and I dont know if Living Evil’s script would have been written if it wasnt for Trout Mask Replica.

We will always miss you captain.

Charles In Charge? NO FUCKING WAY!!!

A very very fruitful writers and art collab meeting at Tikistudio with MM Doggy, this was bad ass. We got the software transferred to the base computer @ Tikistudio, ate some pizza, watched the show “Dexter”, and found myself thrown off by “777: and Other Qabalistic Writings”. I normally understand this man, as enigmatic and controversial as he may have been, for better, or for worse, but that kind of threw me a curveball. Anyhow, we got Sundial, Two Ton, the Lair Lair, and Suuuuuupermayor’s main motion cels finished. Marc (MM) will be visiting again tonight. I read Confuscious, the best of Daoism, the best of the best of buddhist texts, that crazy fucker Crowley,  and my favorite 1/2 scientist 1/2  sci-fi writer, Isaac Asimov. 

 

Best of funnies,
