I'm sharing videos from a M.I.R.V. show from 2012. This clip is "Monkey Boy" off of their 1997 album "Feeding Time on Monkey Island", along with Mirv's glorious deconstructed/meta guitar solo. Remastered/remixed for 2025.

Watch this and other songs I'll be releasing from the show at bit.ly/mirv2012

All smiles at rehearsal today as things sound HUGE and POWERFUL🤘

2/2 The guys were more relaxed & comfortable in the material, each other, & the 2nd time through presented an equally powerful, yet different vibe on the iconic ‘80s king crimson music. so, so, good! 🔥

1/2 The BEAT tour returned to the scene of the crime last night as they held their second show at the San Jose Civic, where the beat tour began over 2 months ago.

oh. only 4 photos allowed per post. got it. here's the other 3 it silently dropped.

and here's an AI haiku about blue sky:

Blue sky’s fresh and bright,
another scroll, another try—
worth a shot, I guess.

what's good on blue sky? old geek jokes? political rants? bad AI poetry? music fanboying? i'm not a twitter fan, but curious if this platform will work for any meaningful interaction. honestly, i miss the old UCSC forum/yam community.

in any case, here's some danny elfman photos i took for grins.

Yountville golden hour. #iphone
