It was an animal collective concert, but it wasn't. I think they were singing in Japanese. But it was understood as an AC show. Amir Shoucri was there. Freddy Ruppert was there. I think Amir drove. As they went in, I went around to the back to try and sneak in. I said I was on the list, so they let me inside where the box office was, then I said I needed to use the bathroom, so she took me to the bathroom. As I did all this I scoped the scene, looking for a way to get in. She took me really far into the venue, way in the back and down hallways. At one point I think I accidentally snuck out of the back area, so I had to try and sneak back into it, to try to sneak into the show. At one point I was talking to someone and I said I am supposed to shoot photos - I had a faked letter saying I would. She accepted it, and signed one of my walking partner cards and said to show this to the guards and they'd let me in. The letter was either from vivian host from xlr8r or from from light and wire gallery. i can't remember. i don't know why both of those are coming up. i was a little worried it'd get back to me that i forged the letter. then i had to go find amir's car to get my camera. i couldn't find his car. i had his keys, don't remember how i got them. looked in one parking lot, then looked in another, but couldn't find his car. then freddy ruppert came out. the band was singing in japanese, and i was trying to figure out who it was i was seeing, i couldn't remember, it was weird. freddy was waiting for some people, maybe some noise people from LA. I think there was a diner earlier. i think somewhere else i farted really loud and people looked at me.

the low e string of my acoustic guitar broke. when it happened this guy looked and me and told me shhhhh. it was in some strange gambling situation. he was concerned, at a different time, that i wasn't winning. he wanted me to win. or atleast feel more enthusiastic about the game. he didn't realize that it didn't matter because i didn't care. i wasn't into it, so i wasn't getting let down when i would lose. on the back of the anp quarterly magazine it said that lucy raven was doing the next one back cover, but i couldn't figure out if she also did the current back cover. it was a photograph i think of two sailboats and a smaller boat. or maybe the smaller boat was the boat where the photograph was taken, so it was just two small sail boats. i think it was in asia, maybe the middle east. all of a sudden we were on the small boat, and shot a photograph from behind, then we sped a head, and had a view from infront of the two boats.

and i think i was in xiu xiu. i was playing on stage, and kept going behind a curtain. i can't remember if this was in the video juan was watching. maybe the photographs in his interviewers bag turned to video. i don't know.
barbara ess was retiring. there was some kind of party. in a big field. a small kitty, the size of a finger, was walking through the field. behind her house was the field, then there was a huge building, then i went in. looked like a mansion. figured someone lived there, but then i was in it, and there was a bar. so it was ok i was there. a guy lived there, his girlfriend or someone talked to me. then everyone came in. there was food. walter chiu was there, because i had to call him to compare something. i think i left barbara's and then came back, it was in the middle of nowhere, very hard to find. as i was driving, paul, my mom's boyfriend, called me to figure out how to get there, but i wasn't sure. some weird testing. jenn wong worked for a place. she was building some kind of bomb. i don't know. before barbara's there was a show/restaurant/ store space. I think it was called Snacks. I don't remember who was there, but it was very LA. Maybe Mika Miko, but I don't know. Abe Vigoda maybe. Oh, I was watching an Abe Vigoda video of some sort, and they were being interviewed, and Juan looks in the interviewers bag and finds photogorgraphs that I had taken. Skies and some polaroids of other things, and then some crazy shots, me under water or in a bathroom, maybe naked. The store was somewhere. I think they said Long Beach, but that didn't make sense. I thought maybe San Pedro. But I felt it was very LA, so it had to be somewhere else. They were watching a video. I kept leaving. A movie. I don't remember what the movie/video was. Then Barbara's thing happened after.
