Mayonaise – Thank you kindly
I’m still sort of in shock, in that I cannot believe that the thing is finally launched. But that’s just the start; I have so much more on my plate, it’s ridiculous. The site will at least double in length before I’m finished.Thanks also for the forum compliments, but it was the webmaster/Nachtkabarett owner/my brother Nick Kushner who set that up. He also did the graphic design for this website, which I find to be absolutely superb. We’re both very pleased with the end product.
manillascissor – I’m glad you like it
I’m currently getting back a lot of positive reviews, which comes as a bit of a surprise, as I expected a lot more people to be negative than there actually have been thus far I can’t believe I’ll be at the first Black Sunshine show. Woot.
I love this limited 20th anniversary tour. It’ll be magical and special, without a doubt.
I’ll attend the Black Sunshine show, and probably purchase the White Crosses show of the following day. Or I may just purchase both.
I got that comment all the time. I took it as a compliment
I’ve just started to regrow my hair though (us Canadians have cold winters
)Though in all seriousness, I’m sure nearly anyone who shaved their head bald would look at least a little like Billy Corgan.
Toronto isn’t my town…it’s about 4 hours North of where I am.
However, I’m extremely interested in this ‘no-repeated-songs’ two-night setlist concept.
My ride up may not be able to stay both days for both ‘Black Sunshine’ & ‘White Crosses’.
If I can find any possible way of attending both I will. Otherwise I’ll probably attend Black Sunshine.
EDIT: Massey Hall now has the ticket prices up for the Toronto show. General public will pay 55$ (Canadian) it seems. Not bad
I’ll be going to at least one of the Massey Hall performances in Toronto in November.
Gonna book my presale the second it opens up a couple days from now…
Yay for bilingualism!
I’d translate it myself, but I haven’t been in a French culture for quite some time now. And my writing was always just mediocre when it came to French. Their grammar can be like pulling teeth.
Alchemy is definitely an inwards journey, and the process of self discovery is a laborious one, but the rewards are well worth it. It’s a language of rich symbolism, but you grow from every experience.
Well, Nick kinda put up on the site that it’d be ready for October, without me knowing
So likely October. Whether early, mid, or late will be determined by how well my last little bit of work goes, and when he manages to finish up the menu and layout final touches.
I was previously telling people no later than the end of November, but I always intended to get it done in October.
In all honesty I just want it launched so that I can see the response from the fans, so that I can judge what I need to tackle next, and in what priority (because I’m far from closing the book on Machina).
lol…wow another guy being respectful…the world is changing:)[/quote:1dmiykc4]
They’re all friends, or otherwise people close to me who trusted me enough to be open with me. Their privacy is the least I can do for them
Respectfulness is important…and SP have certainly kept my blood tame and love intact.
well there is the Manilla’s 21 and over thread?
[/quote:3d8hz7mq]Haha…ethically I can’t. I respect the girls too much.
Most of the favourite photos I’ve taken aren’t really forum acceptable, sadly
[/quote:2j12mgyn]why?[/quote:2j12mgyn]
Because they’re rated R for scenes of nudity
Good to hear, all
I received some interest from some very important people as well, so the exposure may end up being considerably larger than just the word of mouth I had intended…
You speak of her as a Dresden Doll in past tense, as though that’s over with?
As far as I know, she’s still very much in love being The Dresden Dolls. And the B-Side album \"No, Virginia…\" is less than a few months old, right? I’m sure we’ll see more of her in the future.
Between her and Ani DiFranco, I’m always beaming with girl power
:p

Not my favourite song from her solo album. I more so dig \"Runs in the Family\" and \"Blake Says\"
Ah, ok.
In other news, The Dresden Dolls have a lot of cool song names:
– Sex Changes
– My Alcoholic Friends
– First Orgasm
– Me & The Minibaretc…
The lead singer (Amanda Palmer), has always been an amusing lyricist too (check out \"Sex Changes\" some time
)Take one of her most recent songs, \"Oasis\":

…A Dresden Dolls song.[/quote:3esogev0]
Well I think I know where my friend got her baby name from
Dresden…[/quote:3esogev0]It’s quite possible. Could also be that she named it after the German city?
I don’t want to be a dick, but the \"we only use 10% of our brains\" is actually, factually, bullshit.
We use all of our brain. Just not all of it at the same time.
