08 September 2007

Last night I killed John Lydon. [More:]He and I were hanging out and decided to put to use an old deep sea divers helmet that was laying around. I sent him down in the large body of water under my house. Only problem was I used a crappy old extention cord for the power and light. After awhile I noticed it had severed. I panicked. There was nothing I could do – it was night and the water was too murky to find him. I’d killed the singer of The Sex Pistols and PIL. I cried and cried, for him and myself. How angry he would be at me if he were alive.

It was only a matter of time before the press would find out. It was not unlike an Edgar Allen Poe story, knowing there was a dead body somewhere below my floorboards. I noticed some newspaper plastered face-down on my hall floor and peeled it up. It was The Washington Times (which was more a combination of The New York Times and The Washington Post than The Washington Times itself), in big letters the front page read “Arsehole Calling”.
True story.

Man, don't be too hard on yourself! You know he would have rather gone like that than in some cold, sterile hospital dying of a dread disease.

It's even possible he set the whole thing up - cultivated your acquaintance, sabotaged the equipment, whathaveyou... Have you thought of that? Hm?

weird. keith levene showed up in a dream i had. right when i was about to ask him about his guitar tone on the bbc peel session recording of "poptones" - quite possibly the most beautiful and shimmering guitar sound i've ever heard in my life. i wanted to know what effect he was running his travis bean wedge through, and just when he was about to spill the beans i woke up.

damn.
