High strangeness on the astral plane. Drone pilot caught on citizen band radio frequency.

Ok, not bad. Could've used more cowbell.

Meet the Mutineers. They put on a pretty good show.

I told 'em, sure I'll sit in on a couple of tunes, but you gotta pay me in cash on the spot. Not that I have anywhere to spend it these days, but it's a matter of principle.

Meet The Channelers. They did a great job. Not like me in my heyday, but that's a good thing I suppose.

Our May 20th show at the Cafe Bar Europa was a smashing success (nothing was actually broken). Was great to transition dimensions and meet new friends.

A rare handwritten draft of song lyrics was discovered in a trunk belonging to long-time WZ collaborator Giorgio Calderoni. The note was written by Warren to George in the mid-1980's. A partial excerpt of the note states:

Dear George,

Thanks for stopping by to feed the cat. I hit a block writing the lyrics to a song I have in mind, thought maybe you might have some ideas to make it flow better:

Every day I get up in the morning and go to work
And do my job whatever
I need some nostalgia conducive to health

Everybody's at war these days
Let's have a mini-surrender
I need some nostalgia conducive to health

Some nights I drive my car
Up and down the boulevard
It's so hard to find it - nostalgia conducive to health

George's reply is scribbled at near the bottom:

Hey Warren - no worries man. Here's what I came up with. Replace the "nostalgia" phrase with something pithy, like:
"Hi-Octane French Roast" or "Cheese and Crackers"

If you can't think of anything that fits, go with something obtuse or absurd, like "Sentimental Hygiene". People don't really pay attention to lyrics.
