tHe wHitE roOm

Alta, Tombstone, 02-21-05. tHe wHitE roOm syndrome. Just looked these up on the web: "White Room" By jack bruce and pete brown In the white room with black curtains near the station. Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings. Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes. Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment. I’ll wait in this place where the sun never shines; Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves. You said no strings could secure you at the station. Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows. I walked into such a sad time at the station. As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning. I’ll wait in the queue when the trains come back; Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves. At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd. Consolation for the old wound now forgotten. Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes. She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings. I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd; Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves. -------------------------- Christ, these lyrics are drivel! I've never realized it until now.

I hope you remembered to wipe your goggles clean before you resumed... BTW: These are nice pictures. So what happened? In photo one you seem to be facing down the fall line; your skis have a nice edge, your right hand might be dragging a little but you appear in complete control. |

Those are Axis XPs from last year or so. BTW, I find that I am now lookig
for SINGLE Axis XP in a 181 length. Mine is not repairable according to the local ski mechanic. Said the core and sidewall are both cracked.

I've seen all three of its members play on separate occasions and venues (Clapton in an arena, Bruce in a theater, Baker in a basement club). Jack Bruce I saw in his tour with Billy Cobham, a long time ago. Baker I saw with an Italian band that couldn't speak English, but could sing Cream songs phonetically from memory. Weird (and kind of pathetic). Jack's first solo album ("Songs for a Tailor") is very Cream-ish, though Clapton is absent of course. I like it - he has the trippy lyrics from Peter Brown. I thought Jack really was the linchpin of the band in many ways. I bet the reunion won't be too good - reunions seldom are. But perhaps I'll replace my "Best of" CD with all the separate albums in its honor. I presume the concert will be recorded? Dave |

Solid chance they'll tour the US later this year. Fingers crossed. It would be a fantastic reunion. On the lyrical front: read the lyrics to Donovan's First There Is A Mountain (turned into Mountain Jam by the Allman Brothers): The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is. The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. The caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within. Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain. Oh Juanita, oh Juanita, oh Juanita, I call your name. Oh, the snow will be a blinding sight to see as it lies on yonder hillside. The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is. The lock upon my garden gate's a snail, that's what it is. Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within. Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within. Ah, my-my. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is. First there is a mountain |

Weird (and kind of pathetic). I really like them too. But every time I hear Badge (or While My Guitar Gently Weeps), I wonder why Clapton and Harrison never formed an official band. (probably woman troubles....) Didja ever hear the second Masters of Reality album ("Sunrise on the Sufferbus")? Ginger showing the young punks how it's done.... bw |
