it was a bad relationship of broken promises and half-hearted attempts at working together but my hopes were attached to my perspective, so to speak, and the project ran on like a well meaning and rather informative, though annoying,&nbsp;sentence. &nbsp;Children of Scare-Midget captivated the house and let me be honest it was fucking amazing. &nbsp;Angels came forth...and the only word which has ever come to mind was clusterfuck. &nbsp;It got to the point where I stood silently and watched the chaos and questioned the&nbsp;necessity&nbsp;of my colleagues' actions. &nbsp;At one point the Baron raised his own keyboard to his chest and dropped it, but I didn't hear it then and I won't hear it on the recording, because the sound in that room was piercing and pipe-smashing. &nbsp;Some things got destroyed or assisted along on their paths towards imminent death. &nbsp;I walked outside and listed to the sounds beyond the wall and was sad. &nbsp;When it was over Justin, a supporter throughout, accidentally said it best... The Last Tokes tape is something I forgot about, found, and decided to release as it was the last recorded work from the Angels of Pot. &nbsp;I also find it enjoyable, which is odd that our final moments would be pleasant. I nearly walked out or stopped practices or performances before. &nbsp;I did walk out once, but returned. &nbsp;The mob was too large for me to even approach without an outburst, the thought of which made me uncomfortable. &nbsp;I released these on recycled cassettes wrapped in butcher's paper covered in art by myself and some accidental help by Oliver. &nbsp;The artwork was a drawing I did, printed then painted by hand. &nbsp;The cassette box is blinding, and the cassette enclosed has been scaled and painted and is sure to remind you of kind bud. &nbsp;The sounds enclosed will hold you static like the hardest resin hit that lasts eternity. &nbsp;Each tape is slightly different in artwork, extraneous sounds and price which of course was $42.00/lb. This Lather track is most closely related to the artwork for the Last Tokes cassette, thus included. Paranoid, indeed. For the "Release Prty" for the tape, Chris, Janice and I prepared snacks and crap including some sort of "pan-meat" (as in "all/any") dip...that tasted good. &nbsp;We had deviled eggs with olive halos as well. &nbsp;We listened to the tape and Chris and I performed two cover songs "which the Angels of Pot would have written if they had the capacity to write songs." &nbsp;It was certainly an intimate event.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiDevil's Night Asshole: Children of Scare-Midget/Angels of Pot October 30, 2007 Recorded at The Cinemat Angels of Pot: Last Tokes January 29, 2008 Recorded at the Werehouse Lather: Wash All the...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/a8FZPvmbTN8" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/08/angels-of-pot-devils-night-assholelast.htmlhttp://www.archive.org/download/AngelsOfPotDevilsNightAssholelastTokesPlus/4-02-08-081120pmWashAllTheTimeslashbeingWatched.mp3http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/fObXTdKsyfI/recordings-from-111007.htmlfield recordingsHugs and KissesJoe MolinaroSword HeavenSmutBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Sat, 14 Aug 2010 17:19:39 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-62571245033541443680Joe Molinaro Smut Hugs &amp; Kisses Sword Heaven attendees of the show November 10, 2007 (---- --- ------) Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Produced by Bob Heavens Available on cassette tape...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/fObXTdKsyfI" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/08/recordings-from-111007.htmlhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/W-Vmrpz95SA/clean-socks.htmllatherImprovisationalKrayDinner GoatMike TClean SocksBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Mon, 04 Oct 2010 19:40:31 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-48066858625476555360*Ben Myers *Kray Korvella *Paula Tonsor *Julia Lynch *Michael Hodges (tr. 1) August 21, 2007 215 N.

Speaking of dicks, I got really drunk and somehow managed to make it home safely, but only recorded one full song and two halves of Jenny's. &nbsp;I got a sweet field recording of outside the party, though. &nbsp;Probably on my way out.

This was a huge show and if you want to know about the rest of it you can check it out on&nbsp;Facebook&nbsp;but I'm only going to talk about Smut because I really showed up, they played, and I then left. &nbsp;I shared a rare cigarette with perhaps Nathan Warrick and talked about being a dad. &nbsp;I had worked that day and wanted to catch at least Smut. &nbsp;I was pleased to find that they were next, and I meandered the odd party for a few minutes then planted myself close enough to feel the drums and inserted my earplugs. &nbsp;Even those were not enough. &nbsp;If you listen to this you will find yourself turning the volume down repeatedly and still having pain in your ears. &nbsp;Justin, in an attempt fix some reverb issue I couldn't even hear (due to the massive sound spikes reaching in every pore), left his strings to sit and sing in and out of themselves. &nbsp;The duo touched a softer side of Smut rarely seen, which in this case means they play in a moderate tempo with a plodding, stoned pulse. &nbsp;Overall the experience was great fun, and I'm glad I have this to share for the 11th year in Smut. &nbsp;There's another show since then I have to dig out eventually at Dylan's place with Liturgy, Hail and OS. &nbsp;Sweet. &nbsp;I hope you're excited.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiSmut June 11, 2009 The Sauce Box Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download This show marked the tenth of Smut: Justin Rhody and Keith Wright, of Friends &amp; Relatives Records.

The "Yer Mom Likes to Party" series consists of benefit shows for Ben Fowler and his mother, who had an unfortunate accident which was followed by several highly unethical events motivated by other parties. &nbsp;You can read about it above. &nbsp;She was there at the show selling cookies and talking to people. Ben opened the show with a solo set, a mix of covers and originals. &nbsp;Hermit Thrushes played fourteen songs in just over thirty minutes, with breaks for beer and dialogue. &nbsp;Whew. &nbsp;Their sound bounces around within songs between sweetly flowing melodies and&nbsp;cacophony&nbsp;punctuated by jerking rhythms. &nbsp;I had never seen Redbird before, and seeing as by now they have played their last show, it was a treat. &nbsp;This group has some delayed downbeats and stuttering in their songs, giving their sound a greater sense of having been mulled over for quite some time, as opposed to the urgency found in the Thrushes' quick and quickly changing songs.

Chris opened the show as a solo performer as Oscine, due to a lack of practices due to Atem's birth. &nbsp;Somebody was curious about the voice recorder so there's a small chunk of time cut out when it got turned off, was playing back while Chris was singing, and I resumed recording. &nbsp;I guess I didn't have the lock on. &nbsp;Nobody fessed up, dick. WFBDIW were wonderful--seemingly folk songs hidden behind a wall of electronic squalor and live drums. &nbsp;I would draw comparisons to Animal Collective with more of a meandering approach to song and much less emphasis on danceability.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiBunny Hoover vs. Lather Whatfunnybirdsdiveintowater Oscine May 13, 2009 The Cinemat Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download Because the two artists share...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/B2p0-4_-Ty8" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/05/may-13-2009-bunny-hoover-vs-lather.htmlhttp://www.archive.org/download/BunnyHooverVs.Lather/2-02Wfbdiw-Wb.mp3http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/gxF4cnbxO5c/april-15-2009-howards-dilemma-et-al.htmlBunny HooverStrictly Off the RecordSpacePantsDust From 1000 YrsHoward's DilemmaThe BungalowPerformance ArtBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Wed, 02 Jun 2010 07:52:33 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-71108783079519960690no Dust From 1000 Yrs Pants Howard's Dilemma Strictly Off the Record Bunny Hoover April 15, 2009 The Bungalow Bloomington, IN Recorded by Chris Couchman Stream/Download I made an appearance at this show for a few minutes, with Janice and Atem (then 3 monthsLather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens Dust From 1000 Yrs Pants Howard's Dilemma Strictly Off the Record Bunny Hoover April 15, 2009 The Bungalow Bloomington, IN Recorded by Chris Couchman Stream/Download I made an appearance at this show for a few minutes, with Janice and Atem (then 3 months old). &nbsp;You can hear him crying upstairs right before Company Slogan. &nbsp;I can only form opinions based on the recordings. &nbsp;Dust plays a beautiful set consisting of Naptown/Thanksgiving/Natives-era songs, Chris plays in Pants on this evening, and they are an interesting machine together. &nbsp;The mash of musical connotations is breathtaking. &nbsp;Howard's Dilemma would be an extremely interesting live show; the recording loses much of the visual performance aspect, therefore the recording seems odd and lacking some element. &nbsp;The laughter of the crowd creates the wall which shows the void. &nbsp;I would warn anyone who has extreme reactions to dangling participles: Stay away from track 11. &nbsp;If hearing someone's participles dangle is a comedic thing to you, then by all means put this on repeat. &nbsp;Strictly Off the Record is a rock band. &nbsp;They remind me of being in middle and high school during the latter half and out of the nineties. &nbsp;They are a good band; pretty sweet guitar work and emotional pauses. &nbsp;Then drunken pauses of music...on to Bunny Hoover. &nbsp;As another performance artist, BH is best experienced either live or while reading the comic book...if you have seen it. &nbsp;I am including parts of the soundcheck because they sound great and give a great representation of the evening, meaning that a whole bunch of people showed up to see Strictly Off the Record and didn't give a mole's penis about any other bands. &nbsp;Except maybe Howard's Dilemma, somebody did keep saying "Best Thing Ever" but the crowd that was a respectful portion was small and patient. &nbsp;Check it all out. &nbsp;It's all at least good, most is wonderfully great and amazing.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiDust From 1000 Yrs Pants Howard's Dilemma Strictly Off the Record Bunny Hoover April 15, 2009 The Bungalow Bloomington, IN Recorded by Chris Couchman Stream/Download I made an appearance at this...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/gxF4cnbxO5c" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/05/april-15-2009-howards-dilemma-et-al.htmlhttp://www.archive.org/download/April152009HowardsDilemmaEtAl/1-05Dust-BenTalksGunSafety.mp3http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/-dOCa59eYZw/april-10-2009-dinosaur-jr-awesome-color.htmlDinosaur jr.Awesome ColorThe BluebirdBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Fri, 21 May 2010 21:00:06 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-69397636811002676950no Awesome Color Dinosaur jr.

Justin and Lindsay captured even Oliver's attention by looping their voices and reciting mantras, creating a soothing aural fluid with a hint of feedback; I love the blend. &nbsp;Eric played solo acoustic on this evening, a nice set of laid-back tunes which would probably have been performed from the porch had the cabin been in the woods instead of a residential alley. &nbsp;Chris Barth's performance remains my favorite of the evening, beginning with Amorila, recently released by Magnetic South on the Elixer cassette. &nbsp;He touched and moved many emotions on that evening, peaking when he played a song to help rid himself of the pain from his recent breakup. &nbsp;It is intense, and if you need to feel the pain of frustration and loss and feel the release, then Normanoak's fifth song is prescribed to you. &nbsp;Closing the evening was Castle Oldchair, who I had never seen nor heard before. &nbsp;His set was a sprawl of loops and layers, vocals and perhaps samples. &nbsp;I remember being&nbsp;completely&nbsp;entranced, giving him a tape, finding his cd at the library and being thoroughly confused that it consisted of songs with structure and clear vocals. &nbsp;In the words of Eddie Vedder: "It's evolution, baby." &nbsp;Do teh evolution. &nbsp;This show is awesome. &nbsp;Listen to it.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiKid Primitive Family Doog/Brother Dolphin Normanoak Castle Oldchair April 2, 2008 Sonny's Log Cabin Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download Two years ago Sonny lived in a cabin in...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/79cHd7CbQiY" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/04/april-2-2008-at-log-cabin.htmlhttp://www.archive.org/download/April22008AtTheLogCabin/04-09CoIx.mp3http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/HdKFP7LvP6g/march-15-2009-live-at-rockits-pizza.htmlWhen We MightDust From 1000 YrsRockits PizzaSgt Dunbar and the Hobo BannedBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Mon, 31 May 2010 23:54:57 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-27098461109457253730no When We Might Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned Dust From 1000 Yrs March 15, 2009 Rockit's Pizza Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download Chester gracefully opened up this show, and someone was&nbsp;on stage (used loosely)&nbsp;with him but wheLather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens When We Might Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned Dust From 1000 Yrs March 15, 2009 Rockit's Pizza Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download Chester gracefully opened up this show, and someone was&nbsp;on stage (used loosely)&nbsp;with him but whether it was Josh or Jimmy I don't recall. &nbsp;Either way the show sounds great, and it was of Atem's first shows to which he went as a child. &nbsp;I haven't been taking him to shows lately, but make sure to keep music a part of his life. &nbsp;If there were one which he could attend&nbsp;time-wise&nbsp;and enjoy sound pressure-wise then I'd love to take him out. &nbsp;Like...When We Might shows in the park in the afternoon. This show ranks with another Dusty Rockit's show I failed to record: Fred &amp; Susie with Ugh God. &nbsp;Sgt Dunbar&nbsp;wields&nbsp;marching band jazz with the style of one marching through New Orleans, salt crusted on their makeshift costumes...though I gotta say that singing saw is not exactly the best marching instrument. Regardless, this band will put an ass in your pants and a horn section in your hat or hair. &nbsp;Supposedly one of the main songwriters lived in Charles Mingus' house (after Mingus had moved) when he was a kid and when through his garbage pile. &nbsp;It certainly sounds like it. &nbsp;Atem had to be outside for this, but he heard it just fine I am certain. This Dust performance is slightly odd, I believe because it was after David and Dust parted. &nbsp;At first I was typing "shortly after" but now I realize I'm mistaken. &nbsp;Still, Jimmy seemed to cover the sonic space where David used to be, but in his wispy, winged way. &nbsp;It takes a little drive out of the Dust when songs had a driving, throbbing bass line and lays you flat on your back in the summer, staring at clouds or stars. &nbsp;And now I realize what feels so odd and gives the added dream gleam: Matt is not there. &nbsp;No drums. &nbsp;The band is simply Ben and Jimmy. &nbsp;This is certainly a unique performance.stoner,noise,twee,noise,bob,heavens,lather,angels,of,pot,stoner,folk,lo,fi,experimental,public,journal,lofiWhen We Might Sgt Dunbar and the Hobo Banned Dust From 1000 Yrs March 15, 2009 Rockit's Pizza Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download Chester gracefully opened up this show, and...<br/> <br/> Music you'll either try voraciously to pin down or wish you'd never heard it in the first place...perhaps as a result of the former.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~4/HdKFP7LvP6g" height="1" width="1"/>http://bobheavens.blogspot.com/2010/04/march-15-2009-live-at-rockits-pizza.htmlhttp://www.archive.org/download/March152009LiveAtRockitsPizza/02-03Sdathb-TheWeight.mp3http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ILoveThePeopleSameAsTheOak/~3/bQ2tr12DOOo/black-mass-vi.htmlPendra Gondante augustus scarlattiDeserterBlack MassThe BishopAuris ApothecaryHail ArchiteuthisHumansEric KnipstineBloomingtonnoreply@blogger.com (Lather:Angel of Pot/Bob Heavens)Thu, 03 Jun 2010 02:12:54 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8230689410920958791.post-87657767548974870600no Eric Knipstine Deserter Humans dante augustus scarlatti Pendra Gon Hail Architeuthis!

March 30, 2010 The Bishop Bloomington, IN Recorded by Ben Myers Stream/Download This month Black Mass showcased several artists from the Auris Apothecary label, curators of the monthly event. &nbsp;As it was the first performance for four of the artists, technical difficulties arose and were mostly overlooked or incorporated into the performances. &nbsp;Eric played a pair of rather atmospheric keyboard pieces. &nbsp;Deserter maintained a&nbsp;sizable&nbsp;presence of sound pressure, causing fingers in the ears and me reaching for my earplugs, to be worn the rest of the night. &nbsp;His eulogies to fallen heroes reverberated with the safety meeting we had out back while he set up. &nbsp;Humans are an odd bunch. &nbsp;The spaces between the songs are frequently as long as the songs themselves, punctuated by feedback and what seem to be false starts or stuttering introductions. &nbsp;The songs themselves are quirky bursts of punk energy and dissonance akin to the Amphetamine Reptile family...meaning good stuff. &nbsp;das seemed to be having trouble but persevered through it. &nbsp;I stood mesmerized by the flipping and slowly changing image projected by his reel-to-reel. &nbsp;Eventually I realized that the image was slowly changing because the film was melting and smoking. &nbsp;I wish I could attach the scent to the audio digitally; it appended the aural and tactile experiences of das to somewhere between discomfort and the comforting of sweet. &nbsp;Next to strain eardrums came Pendra Gon. &nbsp;His rhythms are nice, and combine with the atmospheres to make an odd but nostalgic sound, however the sheer volume of the performance caused a few people to leave to the bar. &nbsp;Others of us stayed and enjoyed. &nbsp;Hail, as usual, slayed. &nbsp;Bruce kept touching me with his headstock. &nbsp;Last time I sat directly in front of the bass drum and with each kick I felt a punch of air. &nbsp;The vocals came through a hundred times more clear than last time.

In that case they would have been titled ICBM (Improvisation: Chris, Bart, Marty). Their set is quite free, using a wide variety of sounds. Children of Scare-Midget performs a solemn invocation, and Adeptive Radiation is as irreverent as ever, attempting to perform past the time when Racheal's should close, and driving any remaining patrons straight out the door. Personally I thought they were quite together that evening. Very nice show.

Lather played with a cd a few songs from&nbsp;The Death Sound&nbsp;and Styrofoam Duck graced Bloomington on their "Free Boys" tour. I believe their last tour. We open the recording with DBH's sound check and bits of dialogue. &nbsp;It does sound pretty good, and carries quite a lot of the Cinemat&nbsp;ambiance. &nbsp;Their set was raucous and loud, full of hypnotic rhythm and drum triggers. &nbsp;A good antithesis to Lather's (performing with previously recorded material containing portions of the recently released Death Sound) intensely awkward shaking-hand (lack of hypnotic rhythm...more hypnagogic rhythm) control over the&nbsp;diminutive&nbsp;(in number and sometimes stature) audience, but in the right group the two artists' performances could easily have the same effect on an audience.
