PICTURE SHOW: Carney's Lake Video Shoot

Yesterday's video shoot for "Carney's Lake" went off great, with overcast Texas skies and filthy pond water. Initial looks into James Villa's viewfinder show this one will make a clean addition to the videologue.

MORNING MUSING: Early Hour Spindle

I would like to submit that time is not relegated to an important frame within the human psyche during the hours leading to rest, but rather that creative energy is stored in the brain seemingly for release only in early waking hours.

If the creator of said energy is one inclined to production of thought, then that time is spent justly winding the spindle of what may later be physical product. However, if that person does not focus thought, then such ideas may be ones that drive a mind to madness.

NO. 2: Storyboarding "Carney's Lake" Video

Inspiration always creeps in the early hours, and the final logistical ideas for this weekend's "Carney's Lake" video shoot hit me with the veracity of the hail during last night's storm.

BTW: In my young days I received a "D" in Penmanship.

Storyboarding "Carney's Lake" Video

The El Villa is back at it, and this time he's zero-ed in on "Carney's Lake". An upright piano, water mixing to a shoreline, firecrackers, and grain...thick grain.

Powerplants and gypsies will be left out of this one, but the suppression of literal memory will be omnipresent as surreal visualizations characterize a bulk of the storyboard. This will not be an interpretation of a music video from your Uncle Bob's film school, but rather a live wire act from singularly flightless birds.

Two semi-opposing views of "Poisoning the Medicine Tree" in last week's editions of the Dallas Observer and Fort Worth Star Telegram's DFW.com; both a good read.

Amber the Spite

Pictures of buckets, the lackluster girl, is full of snap buttons, and laces with pearl.

Her mind resting easy in lines wrapped striped green.
A whisper of July that sticks to her seam.

A coin dropped in Amber, a kiss coated ripe; that's nothing to something, which never felt right.

How can we all love her? She asks out of spite.
Why can't we just be her? She asks with her thigh.

The doctors go home when their rounds rounded out, but nurses stay on, and they wish through the night.

Her heart is a baby, that waxes and wanes.
She won't be your lady, if you don't like to strain.

Personally, I prefer to wrap my hands and eyes around an actual disc or record to best soak in it's effort, but of course the album is out on digital too.

If you are a bit afraid of buying new things, then check the posts on here, as you can stream the tracks for free to help get your courage up...but yes, you will have to look for them.
