Last night I dreamed the sentence "You Can Only Experience What You're Capable of Perceiving." There was more but I lost the transmission after I got up to look for a pencil. Oil on panel, 9 x 12in.

Spiders and Flies 🕷️🪰 By Richard Foster A dream journey through the Dutch underground music scene of the 2000s-2010s. Foster resurrects a lost world – one preserved in mouldy gig flyers – until now. 3/3/27 More at tinyurl.com/478v3v8. @richardjamesfoster.bsky.social @turnarounduk.bsky.social
A post announcing Spiders and Flies, a new book by Richard Foster. Includes the cover and short description with links to read more on the Ortac Press site.

Where do you find the music that doesn’t fit? 

Spiders and Flies is a dream journey through the Dutch underground music scene of the noughties and twenty-tens. Drawing in letter and spirit from the medieval dream poem, Piers Plowman, some unreliable half memories, and a stack of 400 year-old photocopies, Richard Foster resurrects a lost world of drug-fuelled music tourists, disappeared squats and free festivals. A world preserved in mouldy gig flyers, until now.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

I have nicely asked Kottke to take down an old article about me a few times over the last couple of days. He definitely has enough time to profoundly opine on the instagram logo but not respond. I will keep you apprised.

I underestimated how many people would be sad I'm ending the show. I never wanted to overestimate my worth, but I may have underestimated it. I feel like lack of self-awareness is an unavoidable human obstacle.
