Remember Peter and Antonia Stampfel and the Holy Modal Rounders? Probably not, but if you saw them on Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In in 1968, they looked like this:

Gayle was stunningly drop-dead gorgeous, bursting with positive energy and expansiveness that enabled her to become one of the biggest stars of the Los Angeles rock scene — but then, suddenly, bam! She dropped out of sight, leaving a legacy with “Smith” and a few indie singles that made the charts to #44, not an impressive showing. What the heck-darn happened to her, anyway? Continue reading
I thought you might like to listen to comedy barbershop quartet Fred sing I Got Rhythm — which they sing in strange non-rhythm — while you’re reading this post.
This is a post for my Junior-Jiffy World-Maker students, but anyone can learn from it:
Most of the problems for game-makers almost always is one of three possible go-wrongs:
1. Failure to follow directions by the numbers — by far the most common problem. See Calculus to cure this illness of jumping ahead of yourself.
2. Failure to follow directions precisely, meaning it’s an Attention Problem; some folks dress their attention up in spectacular costumery, not realizing that they have nowhere to go.
3. Failure to follow directions at all, meaning that they wanted to do it differently and THEREFORE better.
Do try to remember that running ahead of the PoG makes you vulnverable and generally means someone else has to go back to where you fell into a pile of crap and dig you out. Don’t be a hero. You’ve waited this long to learn how to make a world, surely it will wait a day or two. This whole universe took less than a weekend, and with a little practice, you can do it, too!
Sandy Denny was without a doubt the greatest rock vocalist of the late 1960s, including everyone you can name, yet she’s totally obscure, wiped off the face of the Earth, the Forgotten Queen of Acid Rock. Why??? The answer is crystal clear … Continue reading
Here’s one of those things that was unusual enough to make me stop what I was doing, which was preparing for tonight’s concert with Hu Dost, and post this piece:
Here’s a followup if you’d like to hear more from Rendezvous! Barbershop Quartet:
Not bad, eh? They have plenty of singing power to go the distance; I predict that all these guys will hit the bigtime!
Wow! What a night! What a breakthrough! You can use your ammies, matrix and superbeacon to exponentially expand the quantum effect, but you can also use it as a plain app on a smartphone. If you don’t have a smartphone yet, you can play it from this page on your cellphone’s browser. Many cellphones don’t browse the internet very well, which is why this must be issued as an app.
Here is this week’s Matrix Modification:

Notice the people walking by from right to left on the stairs behind the girls. Note the sounds of monkey-chatter all around. Note the feeling that you’re attending your own wake. That’s the feeling that this scene should evoke in you.
And another thing … How would you like to perform under these circumstances??? These kids are worth a lot more and deserve a lot better!

I knew Jerry Lewis back in 1966-68 when I worked with a member of his family who was just starting in the music industry; we visited his well-guarded home many times, and the hospitality of the Lewis home was outstanding, warm and kind. He invited me to a number of filmings — his shoots were always open, but I got to watch his directing and camera directing close-up. As a matter of fact, one time it got really wild when Don Rickles Continue reading

This is a video test for timeflow of a new app I’m almost ready to release. Watch for it at our app store, coming soon!
This is a basic “Proof of Concept” video, demonstrating what I intend to do with the ABD readings and yes, I know I posted this a few days ago, but I wanted to remind you to really really LOOK AT IT, because you’ll be able to give me suggestions and tell me how I can better improve the app when we see each other on the ICW this morning and tomorrow.
I wanted you to know about these new apps. We’re working hard to get them out there, because we know that they are HOT! And what’s more, they’ll soon all be available as apps, personally recorded by me, fresh new recordings just for these apps, which will be available in our app store soon. Let me know if there are any readings you’d like to see expressed as an app. The main difference is that you can use it in your smartphone, and as I envision it, you’ll be able to isolate, access and use any of the readings individually by the mere touch of a thumb.
This is just one example of what can be done with this great new delivery system for ideas! I’ll be posting more, so watch for them every day!!! You can get apps made for you! Ask me how!!!
