And I am attempting to make sure that the proper links are provided on the pages when artists contribute. The above article shows Troy's name as a highlighted link and it takes you to his Facebook. <br /><br />A note to all readers, that although a few of us know each other from another lifetime ago as artists, everyone contributing to the 800 besides myself is either in different cities, or countries and continents away from each other. So far we have contributors in four cities in the US, two cities in Canada, and two from the England, and one from India. If I have forgotten anyone I apologize. My point being, it is more a matter of Chaos Magick bringing it all together, and none of it is being coordinated other than by our loose and networked ties via the internet. <br /><br />IAOTIO<br /><br />Thanx to Troy Palmer and the fans.

I guess that means a rare peek into how I write when in a hurry to get info down quick before it loses shape in my doctor-addled ability to longterm focus. <br /> Besides, If I were in the film 'Naked Lunch', I'd be more inclined to side with Ginsberg over Keruac when it comes to shaping each thought for maximum clarity and precision of concept. Jack may be right when it comes to writers who are still uncomfortable with themselves, but I'm not going to omit a possibly embarrassing detail if it adds life to a piece (if it goes off track or gets boring...)! In fact, I feel the most I have to offer these days has little to do with some scholarly approach to any subject. The more personal evaluations of how a certain character interprets observations related to a given subject are more likely to provide a fresh info jolt toward a previously overlooked direction. Perhaps a greater flexibility in our overall thinking patterns is just what we need to ease our different specialty areas together like a magick quantum jigsaw (as opposed to pounding more square pegs into round holes, which happens every time different schools of thought choose to fight rather than compare notes). HA! My true notoriety for trying to stay on topic and finding myself hungry, bleary & confused hours later is in full effect...<br />BTW, The Killing Joke selection is a eulogy to Paul Raven, the second bassist in a band that was created on the foundation of a ritual in two weeks. In a time when finding compatible musicians for such a specifically-envisioned sound/band wasn't at all easy, KJ found a perfect fit. Events just unfolded around them, soon forming a mythology that has continued to build significantly since 1979. When originaal bassist Youth went mad for a short spell in 1982, Raven filled his shoes with an earthier, more gutteral sound that made for another perfect-though-different fit. Raven's good-humored nature provided healthy balance for frontman Jaz Coleman's darker explorations & concerns, no doubt. <br /> Anyway, Raven & Youth would strangely swap places every few years in KJ, each welcomed as family by fans & band alike. That stopped just over two years ago when Paul died very unexpectedly of a heart attack. Though this prompted the reunion of the original lineup for the 1st time in 25 years (and a definite rejuvenation of sound & purpose), the cost was the life of someone a great many musician fondly called friend. This song is from their new album, 'Absolute Dissent', and pays tribute the only proper way... not only an expression of grief in the communal manner KJ are known for (a very close bond has existed between band & fans that has been kept up for over 20 years and is very real), but with a song worthy of such weight. <br /> -Troy Palmer (sleep-deprived & largely unaware of the past two hours' typing again... the light went out when I started talking about Raven and have had to hold the damn keyboard up to a largely black screen for any light at all)<br /> I still haven't worked out getting a proper handle for this site, but until then you can find me on Facebook.Troy Palmernoreply@blogger.com
