Content has been admittedly a bit slow here of late, but there’s plenty of new prose to be accessed at several of our neighbor periodicals. A new edition of Point of Departure just hit the virtual racks replete with Bill Shoemaker’s wide-ranging musings. There’s also the May Paris Transatlantic feat. a coffee klatch w/ Borbetomagus, a band I’ve long been curious about, but have yet to explore with any depth. OFN has another week’s worth of reviews and features to peruse and I’m still working my way through Not Coming’s exhaustive Twin Peaks Primer. It’s raining buckets in the Twin Cities, gun metal gray cloud cover casting a pervasive soporific gloom- perfect weather for a marathon surf session, hunkered down, soaking up the ocular radiation and edifying information beaming through my laptop screen.

Hope you'll enjoy the Borbetomagus interview (which I was delighted to see Jim O'Rourke describe as "awesome"), which also mentions Bags' own Hetfield-sporting assrapingly great Borbeto fan Phil Freeman, whose enthusiastic rave in a recent Wire has prompted Jim, Don and Donald to reissue the Live In Allentown cassette.
