wodens day

people and other beasts
its wodens day
the allfather
one eyed and keeper of the ravens
a woman said hey woden i wanna get with you
he said
i will accept you neither clothed nor naked
i will accept you neither fed nor empty
i will accept you neither in company nor alone
she came dressed in a fishing net, with an onion in her mouth and with a wolf.
i love scandinavian myths, people
check em out
do yerselves a favour
and throw away those gossip rags
throw away those sports mags
wodens wife had a dream that their son, baldur
would die
so she travelled thru the world making every single thing
animal. vegetable. mineral promise to never hurt him
then the gods would amuse themselves by hurling spears and stones
at him watching them turn away at the last minute
loki, the trickster knew however
that the lowly mistletoe had made no such promise
being considered un important and un able to cause harm
loki made an arrow of mistletoe
and persuaded a blind god, hoder to fire it at baldur
he did
and baldur ,who was his brother, died.

sorry bout that
but woden needed a plug

went on triple mmm this morning
loathesome experience
fbi tonite should be good
but what can i say that will not de mystify everything
am i actually just ruining things by saying anything at all
including this blog??

ole sk thinkin to his fine self
man you are in the wrong fuckin place
oh well

with my trusted confidants
schpilling the beans

access all areas
no remote inkling grazes the perimeter of my mind
than do i not rush to tell you all


sometimes im on a gig
and feeling rather good
i run to look at you
just like a pop star would
but you just stare right back
those dark accusing eyes

yallah woolshed blues

oh my kilblings
did not enjoy last nite
so will not bore you with my complaints
except to say if you take the most esoteric group on earth
put em in an old woolshed
on a rainy sunday nite.... in wooly gong
well what dya reckon?
any one who didnt come.....good choice
however sydney will be brilliant......trust me my creatures
you will be in transports of delite
oh horrible music playing in internet cafe
weakening me
de energising me
sucking the life from my synapses
well eve and aurora looked very nice in their emd red tshirts
this morning
ha i'll show the kiss army
even if i have to re populate the church army with my own progeny
and what about gene simmons hair?
how the fuck does that work?
its coming from every which way
like donald trump....
my mum went to school with jean simmons the actress
o trivia fiends
and um
well im running outta steam here
interview with the age tday
big melb newspaper
funny how our media clout is outta all proportion to our real size
i mean i been in the sydney m herald about 10 times in the last couple o years
i guess theres not too many other "articulate" rockers left here
only articulated trucks
oh sk , your massive intellect will yet be your undoing
i mean my iq is thru the roof
but my roof is leaking
i mean im a renaissance man
but this aint the renaissance, man
ha a self effacing egotist
a stupid genius
i am large
i contain contradictions
i look young and old at the same time
in my beard i have
1 the golden hairs of springtime youth
2 the black hard hairs of manhood
3 the snowy white hairs of approaching old age
im a good ole boy in touch with his feminine blah blah
and
if ya dont like what im writing here
GET YER OWN BLOG BAYBEE
this is my blog
and if ya dare to critisize it
im taking it home
and just gonna read and write for myself

nuke- ass- L

hey believers
here in the above named place
in a video shop down a side street
totally surreal to sit here amongst these people
pretending to be normal
dont reckon im gonna like the gig tonite
didnt like last nite either my fishes
no my precious old gollum dont like nassssty novo castriansss
its like this
if you wrote a book about, say, the effect of the reformation on stained glass art in
bavaria
you wouldnt do a reading here
well the choich is what that book is, to the music world
they dont like our kinda thing round this way
ok a few do
but not enuff and not enuff to make it werth my wile
like taking coals to newcastle
anyway
now youre thinking im just a petulant old rocker
yearning for the salad days (pre vinagrette dressing)
you can lead em to good music
but you cant make em drink
(well theyll be drinkin plenty tonite my friend, thats for sure)
sittin here in a video rental joint in a side street in newcastle
surrounded by flourescent lights and rap music (sks anathema, my green kryptonite)
its weakening me my nibblies
sucking the fucking white light outta my chakras
like nobodies business
suffering for you lot, my readers, my friends, my loves
to bring you this missive to let you know ole sk
is surviving the great rock n roll wars
still fighting on against the maudlin, against the obvious, against the smarmy
against the feeble, against the cynical, against the regulated
against the masculine, against the corporate, against the ordinary
why sir, my trusty bass guitar will blow those straight oafs into chaos
with one A string slur
well im pushing it staying on here
my position has been unsecured, my soldiers of the surrealistic
fuck em
give me rock n roll
or give me something else

i love you
all
so much
steve

the bkew mountains

katoomba baby
sold out
1st 3 nights sold out
ole sks ego not gonna fit thru the front door at this rate
ah my dumplings
the glamour of it all
the dizzy heights of fame
the plunging neckline of disaster
etc
etc
well my frogs
brisbane....
did some intavus with some very straight people
i surprised myself by not getting angry
judy right centa
nice gig, you fiends
shame bout the boom boom boom
coming up thru the floorboards
like the ghost of some horrible thing
why do they like that stuff....indeed?
any how after much fuckin malarkey
(eg the manager tellin em to turn it off, then they did till he came upstairs
then ...ha ha....they turn it back on)
ive always hated disco my lambs
heaven knows its true
so i was becoming incensed when this moronic racket threatened
to intrude and rain on the choiches parade
the gig itself was ok
the audience were lovely
i turned into some end of the pier comedian
everyone had a goooode time
we are pretty good i guess (so modestly, my readers)
had me questionaire in the metro
oh i am so funny
a bit of a media blitz
ive done 20 interviews and more to come
never mind my special ones
for you are my new obsession
to you and you only shall i spill my beans
PLANNED FUTURE ISSUES COMING SOON
my favourite colour
the kind of girls i like
the kind of bouys i like
what i look for in a sound
anecdotes about my working class childhood
and my emergence as one of the most brilliant songwriters
ever to emerge from dapto
insights on obese children
podcasts
balance sheets
tips on using iridescent pastels as electricity saving devices
sending tubes to ohio
scarlet bigger, even after 2 days
buying chez kilbey a karoake machine for exmas
wow
essential stuff my dormice
my little lovely kilbettes
my baby stevedores
oh yes
this is where you experience the head on rush collision
of surrealistic devices and pleas for clemency
sue c is here now
shes says hello
there you go
do yerselves a favour
get hooked on this site
then when i start to charge youll have to pay
itll be withdrawals otherwise, my small beasts
shes in my poem, droogies
oh yeah
soundcheck looming now
people critising my typing ability
but for gods sake
im a fuckin genius at
painting walls
playing hookey
getting results
navigating the straits of magellen
cant talk and type, sue
at the same thyme
katoomba reminds me of sweden a little
warm and overcast
lovely little venue
oh theyll scream tonite
when ole sk dons his make up and exorbitant dress
when i tread those boards telling gags
and singing my good ole songs
like the real fuckin trooper i have always been
so thats it for now my wild turkeys
i remain
your humble genius
your youthful ancient iconic monument to something
you thought of once in a while
before they took away your mind
i love you
sk

is there anybody there
i could swear im not alone...
hey my people
sorry i missed yessaday
but i was fucked over by technolgy all day
queues at airports
nasty sniffer beagles stickin' their disgustin' maws up ole sks leggy
jesus.... computer crashed at airport
i thought the planes were sposed to do that
ole sks nerves not so goode these days my brethren
not when it comes to flighty wightys
not since the incident when the engine exploded
its understandable, my little pigs, its understandable
so i meditated all the way there
trying to ignore other choich members noisy talk and laughter
chatting up the hosties etc
turn up to maroochydore and its tropical go go
hot and humid my loved ones thats for sure
is this tone conversational enuff for ya dear reader?
my brother russell suggests this be published after one year
a bit like enos book
cept i dont know the pope or eric satie or david blowie
or whoever
which guaranteed his book a billion seller
and will doom mine to black deep dark nothingness
anyway
went to gig
nothin working etc
had a lovely swimmy in the pooly
little bar in tha middle an' everything
soundcheck delayed forever due to blah blah blah
did my yoga sequence
attacked by mossies
thats mosquitoes not moslems
finally soundcheck
a shambles
a fiasco
a farce
a comedy
a tragedy
a mess
need i go on my fruity ones?
the gig however
was a blinder
i have to admit we were quite wonderful
charismatic
and we TRANSCENDED
we took em somewhere for a couple of hours
and we enjoyed ourselves a lot too
some hangovers for some members
but not your humble correspondent
who was up at six swimming doing chi gong
and generally feeling smugly superior to the slumbering
behemoths
who were avoiding their brekky like the plague
me and timbo drove to brissy
and i played him two tracks by mimesis
my new darling project
and he played me some stuff by travis caudle
who he is producing
and i played bass on it too
we patted each other on the back
i did 2 radio interviews
and had lunchy
here i am now my sweets
in the present mo wid cha
(marvellous the way i can straddle big latinate 3 syllable-ers
and the latest street jive
oh sk, youre quite the homebouy aint ya?)
tonite we're at the judy wright centre
sold out my friends
dont you love to know youre reading the blog of a bloke
who can sell out the jwc?
be part of my success
send 500 dollars to ole sk
and i'll mention yer name at my next mega drome sellout
ITS THAT EASY!
russell....i'll do you for 250
(fix me up at the chrissy picnic)
well im off to the soundcheck soon
even tho its all acoustic still many things to go wrong...
say pk got the wrong brand of champagne for example...
good lord
itd be like the fall of rome
lots of merch
you could by an sk print for your uncle cedric
or a copy of earthed for young jason over the road
he's bound to love it

i know
gilt trip is set to be a hit at barbies this xmas
so dont be disappointed
BUY 10 !!
dont complain to me if we run out
sharing the luxury rooftop penthouse apt.with tim tonite
a real rytyhm section rooom

MORE SOON
AS IT COMES TO HAND

Hopefully this will become a place to air my thought and the general carry on of the day.
