Saturday midnight on the cusp of Sunday, a studiomate whose large animal
paintings put SCHMECK in mind of sitting in a cave by firelight, the ancient
flute blew notes of pure anarchy galloping across a sere summer plain, the
mood one of war preparation, mechanical raptors delivering death from above,
Hendrix burns his harp in heaven, angels speaking backwards countdown to
the Creation.

A lonely girl flopped down in front of her divorced dad's tripod but he was
more interested in the reflections skyscrapers cast across Lake Union. His
ignoring her filled the SCHMECK duo for the day with a sadness and summer
sunset visions of something better, a place where the water is green, the
edges softened by alcohol dreams.

James didn't bring his handmade native american drum over because it was
too sacred but it didn't take long for him to find in the process of layering
over his own voice the same catharsis others had found, establishing SCHMECK
as a new world religion, the Boomerang its altar of adoration.

A weary road traveller from afar dropped in unexpectedly at the SCHMECK compound
with his guitar, adding a new level of intricacy and sound distortion to
the schmix. Best of all was his back-to-front interpenetration of Another
One Bites the Dust, which if you say it right sounds like "smoking marijuana
is fun" backwards.

As a youth he never pitied mutes and understood why the caged bird sang,
but now in the middle of being a man he felt sad b/c without song he knew
he'd never be free. Luckily a berry tree at the Center of the Universe rang
out an invitation. Many fruits were consumed, smoke offerings made to the
muse, and as one consumes, so does one produce. The manager of night lent
her voice to the swelliing chorus and time unraveled, unrivaled,
ensemble they ascended.
