This is where Mekons sleep, this is a nice hotel room. There are 99 pillows on each bed! There was a pool here but I did
not get to use it. Downstairs was a lot of breakfast food for $10, I ate so much bacon.

This is the cover art for the next Mekons record. It is going to be called "Snacks Or Wee". That is funny!

Jon & Rico made this for me. You can buy it for $100, unless Jon or Rico are reading this.
In that case it's not for sale, unless they stop reading this and then it is for sale again.

This is Mekons in the morning. Nobody is grumpy in this band, everybody is very friendly. Jon is carrying his clown suit, he had a gig the night before.
He is a John Wayne Gacy impersonator who goes to different towns to shake the hands of Roslynn Carter impersonators, this is true!

This is Sarah & Susie & the Grunge Teenager at the Picador in Iowa City. Later he sold everybody in sight a lot of cocaine,
I am just joking. He is just a youth in Iowa, ouch. Time to move away, dummy! I am kidding, Iowa is exciting.

Here are Mekons at the Illinois rest stop. A lot of people ate from a Mexican restaurant here called Mr. Fish Taco, it was gross.
I ate an old ham sandwich. I WILL EAT OLDHAM SANDWICH. Ok, I am tired.

Here are Mekons at the Thai restaurant. Thai food comes from Taiwan, NOBODY LIKES THAT JOKE! I had the soup, it was tasty.
This restaurant is called Thai Flavors, that is a dumb name. The service here is slow, I will make a rap for them right now.

This is me & some merch, I am good at this job. I give the correct change and tell customers that all of the merchandise is of high quality.
Sometimes I have to pee and I leave the table and there is less to sell when I get back. Mekons talk about Socialism a lot, so I gave
some of the merch away because I don't know a lot about Socialism, but it seems like that is what I should do.

Here is the Iowa City set list, all of these songs were good. Sally told the crowd about Rap Master Maurice but nobody cared.
They did not play Where Were You, I kept yelling for it but they were like, "PIPE DOWN BACK THERE".

Here is Jon eating a big bowl of melted cheese at a Wisconsin rest stop, he is also drinking cheese soda.
The truck behind him is carrying cheese, etc. There were some clean cheese bathrooms here.

Here are setlists. This picture was taken back stage in Madison, WI. I stole all of the herbal tea from here and gave it to Susie.

Here are pants and masks at the Barrymore Theatre in Madison, WI. I would describe the staff here as "just ok".

Here is a mouse! He is in Wisconsin because there is a lot of cheese there, duh.

Here is a moose! That word is close to mouse, and he is orange.

I took this picture and was look, "look, now I am Eggleston" and then a guy was like, "how much is this CD" and I was like, "oh, I am not Eggleston anymore".

Here is the outside of the Barrymore in Madison, WI. Next to this is a Laotian restaurant that gave me a metal spoon
because they were out of plastic spoons and when I went to return it they were closed so I threw it at this sign and it
hit the "r" in Gary Louris, which then fell off, so then it just said "GAY LOURIS". HAR HAR.

Here is the Mekon Cheese Lunch Stop. Steve Goulding is wiping his mouth, he played drums on the original versions of
Watching The Detectives and Let's Go To Bed, which is like WHOA. Everybody here is eating and drinking cheese.

OH MY GOD, LU EDMONDS. You can read about him here. Here he is packing the van, I am just taking the pictures, so lazy.
LU does not eat snacks, he smells them!

Here are some masks from The Barrymore in Madison. They are made of wood and appear to be very heavy.

Here is a view from The Edgewater of Lake Mendota. I put my foot on the ice but it went through. Derek #2 said that's where Otis Redding died and his
body was never found, but he is WRONG & WRONG. Click for giant panaroma, NEAT.

Here is The Edgewater in Madison, WI. It is the BEST HOTEL EVER! Elvis slept here and then died, I will die eventually,
THIS PLACE KILLS PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS SO GREAT. Everybody who stays here will eventually die, oh wow.

This is Alissa Anderson & THE KING. Alissa & me were a merch-hurricane, we sold so many mountains of merch. That guy is called THE KING because he has
a long sleeved black Public Enemy sweatshirt on and a jacket with a Dead Moon patch on it. ALSO HE IS DRINKING BLOOD. He was at the
Tornado Lounge later and he sat across the table from me but I don't know what he said because I had 999 vodka & sodas + 11 shrimp cocktails,
which means: MEMORY ERASER.

This is the setlist from St. Paul, MN, I think. Man, I dunno.

Here are Mekons live on Minnesota Public Radio. Everything in this building was giant and new and automatic and perfect and expensive. When NPR has a pledge drive
and they say they need money, do not give them any because they will just spend it on a 50' computer screen in their lobby that lists their programming schedule. I
AM NO DUMMY. I will spend NPR pledge money on snacks.

Mekons at The Fitzgerald Theater. There were so many snacks at this magical place. F. Scott Fitzgerald was from
St. Paul. He was a boozer that people look up to. Aspiring writers are like, "OH, SO ROMANTIC", oh brother.

Here is a picture of people eating the snacks, I am sorry it is blurry. 2nd from the left is Mary Lucia Westerberg, she is like Adult Punky Brewster.

Here is Jon & Sarah with Greil Marcus! Whether on land or the high seas, Greil is the captain of the steam ship SS NOT VERY FRIENDLY.

Here are buildings in St. Paul. I said to a person, "I've never been to Minneapolis before!" and he said, "Well, you're not quite there yet!" and I was like,
"OH REALLY, WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?". That person was mad! There was a bridge collapse here, or in the other city.

Here I am asleep under the Garrison Keillor banner. Later I told a person, "I fell asleep under the Garrison Keillor banner" and then another person
said, "WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT MR. KEILLOR?". I was like, "OH, JEEZ". They sent me to Anoka for re-programming.

Here is Lu sleeping in the van. When I laugh sometimes I clap and I did that and Lu woke up and said "STOP CLAPPING", so I did.

Thanks for looking at my website.
