So It Goes

Sorry, Kurt!

How any list of sock-off-knocking books could completely neglect Mr. Vonnegut is beyond me. Of course Slaughter-house 5 should be there (and, interestingly, it gets a worthy tribute in The Braindead Megaphone). But the ones I really remember loving are the ones that were not so well received by the literary pundits, Galapagos and Timequake.

As an apology to the late Mr. Vonnegut (so it goes), here's a post I wrote on the day he died, which includes this song I wrote with my good friend Chris some years ago. That's Chris on guitar, playing a cool hook he came up with:

So It Goes

Chris came over late one evening to record, and we couldn't find a guitar pick. That weird guitar sound comes from playing with a dime.
