Well, its 12:15pm the day after, and the Benefit Party went over GREAT!!! All together we raised about $430 for our friend Kristen. And Tricia was absolutely awesome. I'm sure she made a few new fans here in Ohio. Trish got here about 5:45 pm and got all set up, and then we just kinda chilled waiting for people to show up. It got really rolling about 9:00pm and Tricia went on about 10pm. She played Ticket 152 Power Trip Nonsense Stargazing People (Thanks to Tricia's friends for the handclaps!!!!) The Flames (how appropriate considering it was a benefit party for friends who lost stuff due to a fire) and then she finished with two covers, her cover of Emm's cover of Crazy Train, and Leaving on a Jet Plane, which got everyone in the house (almost) singing along. It was an absolutely awesome time; I want to personally thank everyone who made it, especially those who made the three hour drive from Michigan (namely, Mark Tong, Kevin Kwiatkowski, Joe Burghardt, and Laura Robeson, and of course Trish). Your generosity is appreciated like you''ll never know. You guys are ALL welcome back here anytime (maybe we can actually stay awake and finish watching The Matrix next time!!!) Hope everyone had a great time, I know I did, and Kristen was very moved by everyone's generosity. Thank you, and most of all, thank you Trish. You're more awesome than I could have ever imagined (and thank you soooooo much for my Emm Rarities tape (i am now one of the few select to have a copy of And Distrust It along with other gems such as Half Sorry and Braving December... thanks!!!!) hope to see all of you soon, maybe I'll make it for an Emm show in London or something!

American Beauty was amazing. Stand-out performances from everyone - although my personal favorite is the guy next door. I would also add that despite the big red mark of violence that the movie "Fight Club" has on it (and don't get me wrong, it certainly isn't Snow White) this movie is, in my opinion, one of the best Hollywood films to come out since Raging Bull. This is a sincerely ground-breaking movie. The visual style, the pace, the script and the performances are all unlike anything you will see or have seen. Highly recommended. But yes: see American Beauty. :) Is it me or has 1999 been an amazing movie year? In a year when Phantom Menace was supposed to be all there was to look forward to, I think it's easily been eclipsed by Blair Witch Project, The Matrix and even fluffier stuff like American Pie. (which I still haven't seen.) Pretty cool. Can't wait to see emm again. :) Haven't seen her play live in a year. Crazy.

Its the photography too, some of those frames are beuatiful. I recall some really nice '20's photos shot with those wonderful Mamaya Press cameras... (I'm aways temped to pick one up.) There's this one shot of Norton on the floor covered in blood, it was inspired, just brilliant, the way the camera person filled the frame, the way the light hit the blood. Wow. Very nicely filmed. There were a couple of Helena Bonham Carter scenes where I though would've been better with a nice Emm song in the background... ...Julia comes to mind... but hey, it was an "important" film as the Globe and Mail says.

I really loved the visuals in Seven as well. Its the crisp, but shiny scenes, he's very good at framing the shot too, very balanced; very composed. So, movie scenes that would do better scored with Emm songs? James.
