Alfred Barker's Ghost

July 26, 2010

Terry Ponick is a real intellectual. Seriously. I mean it.
Ponick quotes Archibald MacLeish. Only a true intellectual
would quote Archibald Macleish.

Terry Ponick is a real writer. Seriously. I mean it.
Just listen to some of these phrases: "Sartre’s existential angst," "a Thomas Pynchon-esque entropy-zone," and "gestated in the ancient gene pool of Sartre and Ionesco." Wow! Ponick is a real wordsmith.
Seriously. I mean it.

When name dropping various intellectuals Terry Ponick seems to be trying to convince the reader of his own intellectual power.
Ponick reminds me of the man with a small phallus who
constantly boasts of the size of his member.
Seriously. I mean it.

But if Terry Ponick is an intellectual wordsmith why does he miss the fact that repitition is often used to convey meaning and delineate structure?


Infra: Fans of EWJ must always remember, the last word in Ponick is ick!

I haven't wanted to do theatre much in the last couple of years but your show, your Eelwax, makes me want to get to CATF tout de suite. Nice piece on NPR. Hope the audience gets as much out of it as i did hearing that tiny, tiny story -- and visiting your website.

Scene: 74701

Setting: Scene opens in a bookstore. A large Leonardo DaVinci poster is displayed behind the counter. It is the late 1980’s. “Like a Prayer” plays softly in the background. It’s hot. As they sweat the clerk and a customer sip warm soda pop.

Jon: Next in line please. How may I help you?

Grotsky: Hey Johnny. There is a rumor going round about you.

Jon: I would imagine there are several.

Grotsky: … Who’s your dad?

Jon: You are correct sir.

Grotsky: What? … I said, “Who’s your dad?”

Jon: Absolutely.

Grotsky: … I heard he was a doctor.

Jon: Who?

Grotsky: Your dad! … I heard he was famous. What’s his name?

Jon: Peter Cushing.
Next in line please. How may I help you?

Grotsky exits right looking perplexed.

Infra: By posting, the author transfers copyright of the above work of fiction to Eelwax Jesus. A Hard copy of this transfer is available upon request. In return, Kick some Keister at the CATF!

Sarah Palin is one gutsy gal. She is real pretty too. I love her gams. She has a shapely keister as well. I admire a gal who is not afraid of a little gunfire. Sarah could stew my moose anytime.

I recently tried one of those "moon pies" that you people are always going on about. To me it tasted very much like a vegemite sandwich.

Yes, I know it's "Barker" not "Baker." Tequila has the strangest effect on this keyboard. Is it just me, or is it hot in here?

A live performance is a test. A test is nothing more than an opportunity. I am confident that EWJ will make the most of this next opportunity.

Mrs. W. here again. Who wrote that trash about that Houston school? More bloody rot from this band's fans!! Did you know that President George Bush is spying on websites now? What if he should see that? Shameful. I don't believe a word of it. I'm going to go stroke my hummingbird.

You are one of the few reasons, if not the only reason, I miss NYC. To watch you play live would be a DREAM!! love, love, love, love, love, love, love...

excellent video. makes you want to put great defenders in your walkman, plug in, light a j and take the a train from jfk to wash heights. just to open your mind.

Enjoyed your music, you are a cross between Bowie and Madness!!! Like the acoustics the voices and the lyrics. Very enjoyable, I hear a london accent in there and cockney references.
Radical but true lyrics makes you think more of why are we here on this earth or are we just aliens!

stop using my name in your lewd and offensive "music." i'm going to sue you if you say f*** you to me one more time. you should all be trepanned. then we'll see who's mr. smartypants with the electric guitar. and as for that football hooligan who says i'm cruel to my pets, you should sell your doc martens and your punk safety pinned kilt for some good manners, young man.

I'm very excited for the show on Thursday..it is sure to be the event of the season.

However, as one of your biggest fans, I speak for many when I say we wish you and your little friends had included "Next" on the set list.

I do like cabbage, but I certainly don't like actors; nor do I like you.

Looking forward to your atrociously expensive show.

Sellars,

I hope your people are suing the sh*t out of Kevin Spacey for his blatant and shameless rip-off of your persona in Superman Returns.
I mean COME ON!

Hey, Amy Kay (Tate) and I will be in New York City July 20-25, would love to see you! Call me! Greg 917-771-6241 Your numbers don't work...are you on the lam?
