Oh, this is the dock and boat in question. I'm on the left. That's my friend James, not TOMBOT. I'm sure there is beer somewhere there...

The other night I had a dream I was at a party at an old house, when it was besieged on all sides by flesh-eating zombies.

Jerry the Nipper was one of the partygoers who was trying to fight off the zombies, and he was saying that even though the zombies were very real they were still a metaphor for relationships gone wrong. I blame his article for FT, "Passing Through".

Was he smoking a pipe as he said this?

I had a dream that I lived on a farm, and it looked as if it was from the future. Then I went with some friends on a boat ride. There was this person on the boat who really had a liking towars pigeons. All these pigeons got on the boat and she was telling us everything about them and no to harm them.

When the ride was over, I was the last one on the boat. A pigeon was next to me. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING and the pigeon was pecking my leg. I just tried to walk away. The pigeon flew up to my arm and was trying to peck my face! I put my hand in front of my face. The pigeon began pecking faster. I pushed it. It flew. Came back. For some reason, I had my violin case with me. I grabbed it. There is an out side pocket on my case. I opened it, the pigeon flew inside, I zipped up the pocket, and I suffacated the pigeon. I threw it in the water.

Then I went hicking with my mom and one of her friends. We got lost, and I was trying to make something, but didn't have everyting I needed. Then some Stone Temple Pilots song was playing in the backround. My mom got mad at me. She made me, and only me, eat all of this cardboard. The worse part was, there was paint on it. I ate it.

Some how, I ended up in a building with three other people. We were all to eat ice cream. One person took all of the one flavor I liked out of the three that were there. Some old woman and I asked if he'd give us some. He kept most of it, gave a resonable amount to the old woman, and as for me, I got two table spoons!!

EDR - that is exactly the kind of dream I have been having recently.

Dan - you, of all people, should know: CECI N'EST PAS UN PIPE.

I had a very peculiar dream in which Ken Chu was a stand up comedian. Not only that, a good chunk of his act was based around taking the piss out of me.

I had a dream: Chris Piuma was coming to visit me, but instead of living in an apartment with Sarah, I lived at home with my parents and sister. So he came over and chatted awkwardly with my family. Then we all went to see a movie. The movie starred Nicolas Cage, and was based off of a (nonexistant) Donald Antrim novel. It involved several members of a family coming over to the home of a recently deceased family member and dividing up their belongings, destroying everything in the process. The end of the movie was that the house caught on fire, Nicolas Cage being ejected from the house in a giant ball of flame. Anthony Miccio was in the movie too, he found some really old cigarettes and smoked them. After the movie, we (my family and Chris) were walking back to the car and we had to walk up this huge hill. My parents and I found an escalator that took us to the top, but Chris got sidetracked and was stuck at the bottom of the hill below an embankment. He finally managed to climb up it though.
Fin.

Last night I dreamed I went with Suzy to the offices of Edgy Style Mag, which were in St Paul's cathedral. They said they would give me £140 to interview Aliyah (3200 words, deadline Monday). People were milling about in the vestry trying to set up a photo shoot and then someone said "Oh we can't do photos, she died over two years ago, but Anna, you can still do the interview."
I thought this was fine, and totally possible. Then Toby walked in and he'd grown his hair, but it was light brown and straight (which it wouldn't be if he grew it in real life).

― Anna (Anna), Monday, 23 February 2004 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

I didn't realize hanging out with Nick's family meant Nicolas Cage movies.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 23 February 2004 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

We do tend to go to movies when I visit. And that plot is remarkably close to something that could be a Donald Antrim story. Though if it was an Antrim novel, it wouldn't end with flames and explosion. But it makes sense that they would add that in adapting an Antrim novel into a movie, especially if Nicolas Cage was starring.

I'm afraid I dreamt that Calum was commissioned by the Guardian to write several features on Italian horror, and that Nicole had to admit that they were very well written.

Last night I dreamt that I was at a mini Fap with about 4 or 5 ILXors. Everyone was putting on (over their clothes) a pair of my boxer shorts. Stevem (the only one I can remember) was struggling into my favourite green pair.

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 February 2004 10:09 (twenty-two years ago)

hahaha Anna, Edgy Style Mag actually has the last ever Aaliyah photo shoot. Cover story came out basically right after she died.

i dreamt i found an old b&w fanzine by Tom called Ticko Tocking. Reading it i was surprised to find that Gareth had once been the bass player in The Eels.
then i got into a car with mark s and had an argument with him but didn't really understand what it was about. he got frustrated with my idiocy and showed me his collection of tomatoes - some of which were the shape of pirates hats.

That happened with that Dance Magazine too. I remember one of the Sians/ Sylvias had to re-write.

Last night I had lots of weird dreams, all fairly horrible (I was shot twice, both by people close to me). When they brightened up a bit I was in Marks and Spencers with an employee showing some £25 vanilla body lotion to me and Momus and Dido.

last night i had a dream that i was wandering around some medium-sized city with mark c and sarah. it was late and they wanted food, i wanted to go home, but i knew the city better, so i was trying to help them find something.

but sarah was really really drunk, and so none of my suggestions worked. the best part was when she saw a brightly lit pedestrian bridge in the distance and shouted 'let's go climb the mackinac bridge!' which left mark and i in hysterics.

awwww.

last night i dreamed ian johnson and jon williams were trying to kill ethan and i. ethan and i were ghosts, although we attempted to pass ourselves off as real humans. they caught us when we were eating soup with dead baseball players. much comedic chasing and googly eyes commenced.

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 5 March 2004 12:08 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm still a bit weirded out by it to be perfectly honest

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 5 March 2004 12:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Did you run into a comedically drawn Great Dane that almost talked and his worthless stoner friend?

Last night I dreamt that I was trying to ride a bike up 18th Street NW in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, DC. Except that the bike was powered not by my legs but rather by a cross between those old hand-cranked railway cars and the childhood Green Machine. Basically, I had to make almost punching motions with my hands to make the damn thing move, and uphill I wasn't going too fast.

Then I noticed someone passing me on a normal bike. This person was chattering on a cell phone with an earpiece and microphone. And then I realized that this person on the bike must be Ally, because she was a she, and over her shoulder she was carrying some dry-cleaning that had a big label that said TOMBOT but in the style of Talbot's: http://a1389.g.akamai.net/7/1389/2573/20010329163324/www.talbots.com/images/upper_nav/talbots_logo.jpg

Then later I dreamed that Maryland had won the ACC tournament, which pissed me off so much that I woke up. (NB I have never met Ally or TOMBOT nor was I drunk)

(also I don't know why I know the Talbots font)

Last night I dreamt that I was Mick Jagger's wife and that Mick and I took a trip to Australia. (Note: I am male, so WTF? I blame it on reading Peter Milligan's Vertigo Pop: London recently.)

― Chris F. (servoret), Sunday, 14 March 2004 08:33 (twenty-two years ago)

one month passes...

ok this is a weird one.

i dreamt i was at some kind of magician/soothsayer/charlatan festival and some guy had a list of tricks he could perform and one of them was "Dom Passantino's balls in your mouth: believe it or not"

and takers for this particlar trick were given a small round green ball slightly larger but similar in texture to an olive.

and they just couldn't believe it! "wow! i really thought i had dom's balls in my mouth!" they marvelled.

i didn't try it.

I was supposed to visit NA at his parents' house in Virginia (have no idea if his parents actually live there), so he and his mom came to pick me up (from the airport, I guess?). I spent the car ride there talking about some article in the New Yorker from a few weeks ago about some architect who had either designed buildings at William & Mary, or who was a well-known alum of said institution, which I referred to as "your [NA's] alma mater." NA's mom had read the article, too, but NA hadn't. I wish I could think of the guy's name; I'm sure my subsconscious mind had created something suitably ridiculous. I want to say it was something like Jefferson Mitchell. Anyway, we finally got to the house, a tasteful white colonial-style, and upon getting out of the car, I made sure that my girlfriend's three cats also got out with us.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 7 May 2004 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Ha ha, awesome. Yeah, my parents live in Virginia, but not in a "tasteful white colonial-style." Yay, I was in an ILX dream!

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 7 May 2004 20:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Last night I dreamt that my uncle, whom I'm staying with, started developing the facial features of my dad (his bro) for no discernable reason as I watched them both converse with each other and then me. Then a group of non-real life cousins appeared out of nowhere to have lunch and hang out. There were 6 of them and the all had this weird tendency to talk almost incessantly on their mobiles. Then my 2nd younger brother (who's still in the UK IRL) showed up to hang. I ended up going back to my room, which was completely different to the one I actually ahve and suddenly all the 'cousins' come in one by one and start telling me "We're not who you think we are, no one is" and each throws their mobile on my bed, which all turn out to be fake Nokias. Then my brother comes in and says "I am not truly your brother" and I'm paralysed with fear and confusion and am all like "Who the fuck ARE YOU PEOPLE!" and then I'm all sad and going "What did you do with my bro?" and he just leaves, repeating his phrase. Then the eldest of the fake imaginary cousins comes in and starts explaining the "plot" but I woke up at that point.

I dreamed that Ken C brought a demo tape of his band to the clinic where I work (which had incorporated the Pilot Light, a local bar/venue, into its front waiting room). I said "Oh, put it in! It's just gentle indie-pop, nothing that could be offensive to patients", etc.etc. So someone puts the tape in and it is this total grindcore noisefest, and everyone freaks out mildly while Ken stands there smiling naively in a fishtail jacket.

Last night I dreamt that RJG told me he fought in Vietnam. In the dream, it made perfect sense.

― Cathy (Cathy), Saturday, 8 May 2004 15:06 (twenty-two years ago)

i had a dream involving an enthusiastic tracer hand, but the context is all very unclear.

― m. (mitchlnw), Saturday, 8 May 2004 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

I had a dream I was back in highschool and strongo was putting on Beckett-esque play about searching for Noah's Ark on Mt Sinai. It was laced with Beach Boys. The crowd was electric but I felt like I was missing something.

― Aaron A., Saturday, 8 May 2004 15:25 (twenty-two years ago)

two weeks pass...

I had my first last night! :(

I never posted about playing rugby for Scotland against Ireland, did I? I was a centre, and I made the final pass to Tom Ew!ng who scored a barnstorming try. He looked very powerful and macho.

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 25 May 2004 09:12 (twenty-two years ago)

looked or looks?

― mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 25 May 2004 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I dreamed that strongo emailed me asking if he thought he would be a good candidate for my job (running a radio station)!

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 7 June 2004 09:27 (twenty-two years ago)

um, asking if I thought he would be, obv.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 7 June 2004 09:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I had a dream that a record critic/occasional ILX poster (name left out to protect the innocent) was on MTV news talking about different albums while fucking an anonymous girl in a bed, a different position for each album. During the dream I was shocked that MTV was showing graphic sexual acts (a facial no less!) but in hindsight I think the dream itself was much more disturbing (and the critic in question was not any of the usual suspects).

My dream from last night was wandering through fog, except it wasn't fog, it was dry ice at a nightclub. I had forgotten this except that I remembered coming across (etc) two guys I know sitting on plush nightclub chairs kissing. At least one of them was straight, which is why it partially stuck in my mind (in that I remembered it suddenly now). The actual participants don't stick in my mind, though something (possibly just probability) tells me one of them may be and ILXor.

So if I flinch next time I meet you, it's nothing to do with this.

Stevem and I were getting changed from a pair of suitcases into matching Newcastle United kits.

― Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 14 June 2004 12:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I was at this FAP/talent show deal in NY and Local H was playing. A group called the Stockholm Children were about to go on. The members included Elvis T, Stockholm Cindy, Ned (who had a TAMBOURINE) and some anonymous ILXors. Suddenly Stockholm Cindy flipped out and said she couldn't go on.

Meanwhile a Phil/Daddino amalgam and Geeta (who had Mike's beard! didn't somebody else have a Geeta w/ beard dream before?) were telling me they meant to pick me up from the station when I got into town. I told them I wasn't expecting anybody to pick me up anyhow. Then Local H's lead dude and Stockholm Cindy were yelling at each other and I woke up.

I'm kind of tired of having ILX dreams.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

a Phil/Daddino amalgam

My mind has exploded.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:44 (twenty-two years ago)

wow. i want to go to an ILX talent show.

― colette (a2lette), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Please say this critic was me.

― Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:46 (twenty-two years ago)

A group called the Stockholm Children were about to go on.

The Stockholm Children is a fantastic name for a band!

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Please say this critic was me.

Don't I wish!

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:49 (twenty-two years ago)

SO DO I. BELIEVE ME.

― Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:50 (twenty-two years ago)

This is not something I want to spend time wondering about!

― El Diablo Robotico (Nicole), Monday, 14 June 2004 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

i just remembered that i had the boringest ilx dream ever a couple nights ago - ned was downloading biggie's "unbelievable" from me on slsk.

― m. (mitchlnw), Saturday, 19 June 2004 15:22 (twenty-two years ago)

?!?! Well, what's your SLSK handle anyway?

The Stockholm Children is a fantastic name for a band!

It is! It's a Factory Records fusion par excellence.
