the weekend

i am an old man, or turning into an old man, or whatever adjective you/me might use to describe this dude alive right/write now, i love music, particularly live music.  & this weekend the music fest Coachella is happening.  the fest started today.  most of the bands/performers i don't know.  but we live in interesting times.  a cool fact of our times is that youtube live streams Coachella on three channels.  as i type i am watching Nina Kraviz on channel 3.  who?  first time i heard of her.  but after a quick google search i learn Kraviz is a russian singer/performer.  her music is a cool, eerie electronica that matches her stage presence, dressed in black & giving an icy Nico kinda vibe.  Kraviz is sexy if you think Nico is sexy.  that's not a diss.  on either Kraviz nor Nico.  because i find this performer bewitching in a cool european style.  however, the next musician up on the list tonight is the electronica artist Nora En Pure.  i dig her.  i listen to Nora's radio show on SiriusXM satellite radio.  so that is what i'm doing this weekend.  i'm tuning in to youtube to watch Coachella.  i look forward to it every year.  & i can't believe a year has passed already.  last year i was digging the sounds of electronica artist/DJ Alison Wonderland.  i never heard of Wonderland either, at the time, but i liked what i heard/saw.  & that seems like, really, no fucking joke, yesterday.  weekends go by so freaking fast, blink once, & they are gone.  just like life.  so stop & do as my late cat ernie taught me, eat the fucking flowers.  & have some ice cream & beer too for crissakes!  for there is no ice cream or beer in heaven.  take it from me, i am an old man.
