from _the crying of lot 49_ pub. in 1965 originally. an excerpt from page 48 of the current paperback printing from perrenial library. ** begin text ** A sudden chorus of whoops and yibbles burst from a kind of juke box at the far end of the room. Everybody quit talking. The bartender tiptoed back, with the drinks. "What's happening?" Oedipa whispered. "That's by Stockhausen," the hip graybeard informed her, "The early crowd tends to dig your Radio Cologne sound. Later on we really swing. We're the only bar in the area, you know, has a strictly electronic music policy. Come on around saturdays, starting midnight we have your Sinewave Session, that's a live getto- gether, fellas come in just to jam from all over the state, San Jose, Santa Barbara, San Diego--" "Live?" Metzger said, "electronic music, live?" "They put it on tape, here, live, fella. We got a whole back room full of your audio oscillators, gunshot machines, contact mikes, everything man. That's for if you didn't bring your ax, see, but you got the feeling and you want to swing with the rest of the cats, there's always something available." "No offense," said Metzger, with a winning Baby Igor smile. ** end text ** well, i thought it was interesting. or funny. anyway. gregory ===== //the fawn// performing live at the lab in costa mesa 09/04/02//////?/ 0123456789!@#$%^&*()_+ glitchitty-poppy-catch-all-phrase- turning-indie-tech *from the people who put the sty in style __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
