■ジェロームがまた入院したそうです

bummer. Just spent the day discussing touring up through next summer, then play our asses off to the least responsive audience I can ever remember playing to. I know I'm bitching but it's a shitty feeling.
As I'm walking to the bus to leave Sacramento as soon as I can, I learn Jerome is back in the hospital. I have no idea what this means...

I just finished telling someone yesterday I was looking forward to finally being able to work on some music - the production for the tour was finally feeling finished... now this.
Once again, I'm sorry for the postponement. I really hate having to do this.
On another note, some of you seem to have taken offense to comments I've made here about the audience in Sacramento. This area of the site is not for press releases or sanitized versions of anything. That was how I felt, and that's that. Not every show is a great experience. A lot of our performance draws from the energy and reaction of the crowd. It felt to me (and everyone else in the band) like we were punching a brick wall for 90 minutes with nothing coming back, and that was frustrating. It happens sometimes. It IS frustrating. We're not pretending or going through the motions when we're onstage and these factors affect us and the show.

today's bonus post:
I really should know better by now, but I have read some BBs and feel the need to explain a few things.
Jerome Dillon does not have a drinking or drug problem. His illness is not the result of abuse, nor are there any purposefully vague statements about what's really going on with him. I am sure he is as frustrated and upset with the situation as everybody else. This is not his fault.
Next, I don't spend that much backstage and offstage time with the band, because their agenda is different from my own. They occasionally drink and party - I don't. When I was leaving the venue last night and found out the news about Jerome after everyone else - I was in a separate dressing room down the hall. Make sense?
Jerome is a great drummer and a great guy. We all wish him the best and hope to see him behind the drums again soon. At the present time, his performing live with us places him in a potentially very harmful situation.

このトレントのメッセージコーナー、ログ残さないようにしてるからちょっとの間でも見ないと訳がわからなくなる。いちいちコピペすみませんですよ…備忘録ってことで勘弁してください…。
うーん、いろいろ気に病んでますね…そりゃそうか。
やっぱりクスリ絡みって思ってしまうひともいるか…って、実は自分もちらっと思ったことで。それはまあ、このバンドに限らず、この周辺のシーンにはありがちなことなので。クスリに関しては嫌な思い出がいっぱいあるよ!ホントに憎らしいよクスリは!(泣)違うと言ってくれてるのにはちょっとホッとしてる。
オーディエンスの反応も気になっている様子。
某ライターさんがハリウッドボウル公演取材の為もう現地入りしてて慌ててます。笑えない

■あー
リアルタイムにどんどん書いてってますが。
The NIN Hotlineによると、ドラマー変わるらしい。仕方ないね…。
ジェロームゆっくり休んでくれ、とにかく無理はするな!早く原因が解るといいね…

■『PLAY, PAUSE AND PLAY』限定BOX SET発売決定!!
わーっ、今になって言うなよ!入荷日に買っちゃったよ!…と思ったが、このTシャツを着る勇気はありません(笑)のでいいか…いやでもパッケージかわいいな。サブライムの方には早くから出ていたの?イシイくんの公式、アナウンス遅いよ!(泣)
久々の新作はミックスアルバム。ミックスものは買い出すときりがないのでなるべく見送るようにしているが、イシイくんとなると話は別です。昨年のWIREで久々に聴いた時、大ネタ使いが減って独特なグルーヴを出していた。ここ数年のDJツアーの成果でしょうか、音も軽やかでまさにイシイくん!な音になっています。
フロア対応と、チルアウト仕様の2枚組。どっちもいいよー

ホントだー、ロゴがかわいくなってる…どうなのこれは…。
久々の刊行はオモロパートが復活していて、深刻さの中にも笑える要素がいっぱいです。タッチもちょっと変わったかな?鼻が丸くなってない?
