Questions? Anything you wanna hear?

as ever, DiS get's YOU, the errant messageboarders involved.

So we can hear your desire to know what pants he's wearing. Sigh..

good luck

hope you've read everything you've been able to find on interweb first, and bring them flapjack.


do you feel

that you can ever go back to Godspeed, because even if you wanted to, too many other bands have taken your mantel and ran with it?


therefore

any attemp to record more as godspeed would come across an ananchronism


Say hello...

to my girlfriend who is his press-person.

She got really pissed off at me when I referred to the band as 'Silver Mt. Dry-on'.


ask him about the vic chessnut stuff

and whether being in a band with guy picciotto was as big a deal for him as it would be for basically any indie kid


ask if

GS!YBE will every play live or record a new album again.


Don't ask this

He'll be sick to death of it, I'm sure


GY!BE

Get it right!!


but yeah

that letter mentions what he wishes people would ask them about


Good words all.

And yes, it's inevitable I will ask about Godspeed.

But at the end as a last question.

To be honest, I think you only make an interview hard if you're an over-obsessed fan boy or some righteous sneering cretin.

Fortunately I am both.

arf.


Has the Godspeed

Zeigeist moved beyond what you feel you can go back to, or what you wanted it to become?


his dog

you know, the one that "dreams sweet puppy dreams, whimpering, gently".
whats it called, abd does he take it on tour with him ?


isn't she called wanda

and I think she is dead :(


i just got

a record from a jazz musician called Matana Roberts (who was at the Dirty Three ATP) and she did some work with Godspeed it seems - ask him about how that came about? can't figure out the relationship between free jazz and Constellation-style stuff (barring the drumming style on some Do Make tracks).


Free Jazz?

that's some dark shit you're into there...

Ask them why they moved the !

I prefer it at the end!


Well!

it makes no difference.

Panic at the Disco did it, it must be emo.
