MAY 6-8: teX-Day -- outside Austin, Texas

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT YEAR IT REALLY IS?? HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT PLANET THIS REALLY IS?

Do you REALLY know what condition YOUR condition is in?

I just got off the Interociter with Loke E. Coyote. He's got more bands signing up to play at teX-Day than he knows what to do with. (INCLUDING THE GREAT GROOVY NEPTUNE!!!!) That's GOOD, since EVERYBODY has to pay to get in. I just found out how much I'M gonna have to pay to get there and get in... but by Gobbs I'll do it ANYWAY!

I just can't bear to NOT! It WILL be a first teX-Day NOT TO MISS.

The location, High Rock Ranch, is a pleasant 40 minute drive from Austin -- 25 minutes if you already know the way, or are coming back TO Austin -- and the hosts are DEFINITELY COOL! I checked the scene out at their event last October, as did several other non-pagan Subgenii, and found it OF HIGH SLACK-CHARGE! Very much like Brushwood only without the hot showers or the pool. But there are plenty of chem-cans and a nice stage, gorgeous land, mysterious forests, weird caverns, a Sex Temple (really! -- not that you'd catch MY taint in that place), topless witches, big bonfires, and probably, in early May, very nice weather with only a slight chance of thunderstorms for 20 minutes every afternoon.

And Austin, now as big and safely Pink as Dallas, is within easy drive for those who fear scorpions and rattlesnakes. (I would think there are decent motels fairly close to the site.) I am planning to fly to Austin on Thursday and hie my and Wei's hines to the site on Friday. Princess Wei does not want to miss this either.

I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR ANY MORE WHINING ABOUT HOW "THE GOOD X-DAY DRILLS ARE ALWAYS IN NEW YORK, EEEEWWW!!"

EVERY SubGenius in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisiana or Arkansas who doesn't make it to teX-Day is hereby declared in advance a TOTAL ABJECT PUSS-WAD.

There. Line drawn. Start crossing.

Here's my report from last October, with pictures.

New SubGenius Photo, Movie Stashes

The above link to Flickr.com takes you to a new SubGenius web photo gallery started by Popess Lilith. She's already put a ton of very good selected material in there, under various SubGenialoid categories, and YOU CAN TOO!

Also: I got a wild hair and EDITED the Detroit Devival video that Wei and I shot 3 weeks ago. I even turned it into a DVD. I posted an excellent high-res SVCD copy of the whole 1-hour slick edit on alt.binaries.multimedia slack -- along with a recent recut of the 6X-Day footage, compacting the whole festival into TEN MINUTES. A smaller, low-res version of that is also on alt.binaries.slack.

I am busting ass trying to catch up on Hour of Slack, but in so doing I edited and posted mp3s of the most recent Winterstar Symposium preaching from February. If you ask me, it's the best job I've ever done at this kind of preaching (to the unsaved, not at a devival). Bits are on a.b.slack but the entire thing is on a.b.multimedia.slack.
