isn’t who he says he is. He’s a songwriter that doesn’t sing. He’s a politician with a modest office. He sometimes lies but always tells the truth. He loves words but doesn’t believe in them. He thinks twice before he speaks and says both. He’s an American. He dedicates this blog to the following people: shapes; indecision; ambition.

Yeah. We're doing a release show. If you come, you get a book. You also see bands. You also see visual art. You also sew shawl eyes.

I will be there.

The book
Flaneur Print Vol. ONE is a book. the book comes with 40 minutes of music by Penalune ft. Kenny Wang (sampled--like words in the book--in the video from my prior post.) If you want a physical copy of the 151 page book, go here and buy it for $8.99. Technically, you're buying the music for $8.99 and getting the book for FREE but feel free to think of it the other way around, as I do. (Radiohead charges you about that same price for about that much music (King of Limbs). Granted, Penalune is not Radiohead. But Radiohead's record doesn't come with a tangible 151 pages of words! (According to some calculations, this book is worth about 35 pictures.))
Details on the digital edition coming soon...
Correction: Radiohead is actually offering something similar, with their "Newspaper Album" (but it's not exactly complimentary.)

first time here? mine too.
pretty soon it won't be. hopefully that's mutual.
the point of this blog is so that the words of mine you read elsewhere aren't a dead end, if you don't want them to be. there're other ways for them to not die but, if hitting me up or checking out other thoughts, theories, or thorns of mine is the way you'd like them to live, then this is (y)our spot.
info on Flaneur ONE'll be up here soon and there'll definitely be some other pieces or pieces of pieces posted at some point soon too.
so bookmark, or RSS feed, or compulsively refresh this page until you feel fulfilled or embarrassed.
