A Magic Junk Radio B-Side
While all of my tracks are really B-sides in a way, I designated a specific track for a multi-person podcast created by Temple Stark from Blogcritics.org. Since the track fell between MJR 1 and 2, it subsequently became a B-side. Go to blogcritics.org to check out the inaugural Blogcritics podcast.
The track is called ‘A Place To Write’ – 1:18.
Just in case you were curious: while Temple loosely defined the track as my “relationship with Blogcritics”, or that I… “leave my writing to your imagination”, that’s about half-right. Those original lyrics were written in November 2002 on a notepad, while I was waiting for friends in Penn Station, NYC. Obviously, at the time, I had nowhere to write. When I caught Temple’s message asking for submissions, I thought this one fit my time at Blogcritics, since for the past 6 months I’ve been posting, BC has given me ‘a place to write’. For that, I am grateful, and tip my astral hat.
Here’s the complete blurb from 11/23/02:
A place to write, a flat surface upon which I scribble away the secrets of the universe, an etching of my meticulous nature in the dead wood of a tree once planted by an undisturbed acorn. A place to write my bible, where thousands of idiots will pray to the composition they can never hope to understand. A place to write is where I fight my war, a pen is my sword, and I shall off every last head of my enemies. Every last one.
