I’ve hitched a ride early with Cut Copy so that I can hopefully play drums with Dan Black.

Uffie told me she’s partied every night. Somehow she still sings exactly like her records. Damn. I’m jealous…. and yes the dude on the left is rocking the keytar.

Kelly from Block Party’s other band. A little more electronic on record but kicks a lot of ass live. He rode back to the hotel with us last night. He’s got a cool vibe.

New Young Pony Club. Fuck yes. Badass chick drummer and a real sick disco bass player. I’ve dug every song so far but I’m gonna have to split in ten cuz we’re about to play.

Now, about this book.

Kurt Vonnegut wrote a little thesis called “Why They Read Hesse” which describes it perfectly.

Then add some superpowers and alien intrigue.

I’m not saying I didn’t like it, but it’s definitely for kids. Also, the first half is more well-written than the second half. The book Is part of a forthcoming series, which desperately wants to be made into a movie, by the way. Lastly, the name of the author is the fictional wiseman of the other planet and if the author actually remains anonymous I shall be both impressed and jealous. But I have my doubts.
