Tonight we go to climates East
(Or West, if you go far enough)
Past mountains, oceans, birds and beasts
(And all that other sundry stuff)
Pull out the tablas and the curry
We'll play a round of "Sitar-Hero"
Plane leaves at eight, so please do hurry
We'd hate for you to miss the show.

1. Roudoudou - Trust In Me (4:26)
I've
been on the phone a lot recently with India this last week. Looks like
work is trying to cut corners. I'm not out yet! We still have seven or
nine months, depending on how contract negotiations go. I feel bad for
those guys sometimes: had to learn a new language, no idea what the
facilities look like, it's 3 AM where they are...

Besides a couple of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan CDs coming in this week, I've finally had a chance to sit and watch Sita Sings the Blues.
I cannot pimp Nina Paley enough. She's released the movie under a
creative commons license and soon you'll be able to download the DVD
files. Really, put a couple hours aside and watch it. It's just lovely.

And I am very excited about next week's show! I found a copy of the Golden Record,
so I'll be playing that along with the soundtrack to "Cosmos" and other
things about space. It's because I'm a hippie; albeit a red-meat
eating, smoking, Nietzsche-reading one. This is the show you want to rip. We'll be starting at 8 PM PST.
