welcome back. welcome back to squid ink.

Leannan Sidhe is in the Lair, working out some vocal scratch tracks to hand to her minions (no) guitar slaves (no) bandmates for the next set of songs she’s writing. (Gods dammit it’s hard working with musicians who aren’t supervillains, I gotta tell you. All the terms change.) She’s already thinking ahead to her next album, which is what any good supervillain musician really should be doing if they have a lot of ideas.

Ambitious ideas. Muah.

But also, I’m trying to put together a little late autumn/winter house concert tour! I’ve already got a bunch of people to contact – and have sent a bunch of mail – but if you host that sort of thing and I don’t know about it already, let me know! I haven’t done this before, so I’m mostly looking for small house concerts – even 6-12 people would be fun. I’m wanting to do a series of intimate and unique house concerts up and down the Cascadian corridor. So, LET THE CONCERT …. TRAIN …. THINGIE …. START!

Goddammit I should’ve rehearsed that. XD

Anyway, send me mail if you know somebody, anywhere between Vancouver and Eugene. Also Victoria! I’ve never been to Victoria. NO REALLY I HAVEN’T IT’S JUST SAD. HELP ME FIX THIS!

The Botanical Apocalypse poll is still going! If the answer you want isn’t on there, comment and I’ll add it. This isn’t a contest, it’s research. (My gf Poison Ivy wants to know.)

Finally, enjoy a conversation from the Lair:

Minion Paul: IS THIS REAL?! THEY EAT SQUID INK?!
Solarbird: Why is this surprising?
Minion Paul: It’s black! It’s disgusting!
Solarbird: Sesame ice cream is black and that’s really good!
Minion Paul: Sesame ice cream doesn’t come out of a creature’s orifice!
Solarbird: Milk comes out of a cow!
Minion Paul: MILK is not BLACK!
Solarbird: Now I need to genetically engineer a cow that makes sesame ice cream.
Minion Paul: …
Minion Anna: Well, what’s what you get for living with a supervillain.

Leannan Sidhe announces that she has determined that Cthulhu’s weakness is soy sauce, and hypothesises about the wisdom of Cthulhu sushi. She’s hoping for a Guild grant. I think she may have supervillain potential after all!

Well, what’s what you get for living with a supervillain.

BWAHAHAHA!!! That's my bonnie lass, always thinking on her feet (even if she was sitting down)!

I dunno about this sushi bit, though. I'd think it would be like eating fugu. I ride motorcycles in the rain, that's risky enough, thanks.

(And give the wee fairy a hug for me if she's not already fled, 'mkay?)

Hah, of course supervillain milk would be black! :)

[solarbird]

Really, she and Paul popped out with similar sentiments both. XD

And! Just out the door now. I relayed before she left. ^_^

[solarbird]

That's supervillain ice cream.

And if you haven't had sesame ice cream, you're missing out, no lie. I haven't had it since I left Japan. SO TASTY

Sent an E-mail to my Brother. He knows a lot of people in the music scene around here, might well be able to find someone to set up a House Concert on the Olympic Peninsula or Bainbridge Island.

[solarbird]

Oh, excellent! Thank you!

[westrider.livejournal.com]

Whoops, just noticed on the notification that should have been "Kitsap Peninsula".

Regardless, he might well be able to hook you up with a show within the specified region.

Somewhat Ironically, I was stone cold sober when I wrote the original comment, but managed to spot it now, when I am more than a little bit drunk.

[solarbird]

Either way works. Thanks again! ^_^
