UPDATE!!!
Has it been 4 weeks already? I know I was going to do this everyday and keep you updated with the tours progression – it turns out that – I think that the only way to experience this – errrrrrrr is to experience it and taste it and not shower and put EVERYTHING you have into one show, pushing it all the way – even though you know that you are burning tomorrows fuel – it doesn’t matter – you just have to hope that there is more fuel from somewhere…….I’m going to try and explain this later at greater length…….
ANYWAY – first let me tell you my amazing ‘why I haven’t been on the internet excuse – it’s a really good one BUT – within the insanity of the tour – its just another two minute story on another insane day –
IF you had to make a prediction as to what might happen to my new I book laptop – you’d probably say – well maybe someone might spill a beer on it? Maybe someone might have sex on it? Maybe someone might accidentally throw it out the window or put it through the laundry with my radioactive gig shirts??? Well you’d be horribly wrong by a million miles…………how about a bus driver with an artificial hip changing the television in the rear lounge (it turns out un-necessarily) has his hip EXPLODE and drops the t.v. on top of my laptop – which now has the (pat pending) smashed to pieces screen saver installed.
So, that’s still not really an excuse but, I’m going to go with it.
You have probably heard all kinds of things about the shows – it was magnificent to see Danny from Tool, C C Deville of fricking POISON, Jason & The Method from Godhead, Julian Beeston, Taime Downe of Faster Pussycat and and and in La Dee Da – BUT – the band is really magnificent – every extra bit of headroom that my body gives me I burn immmmedeately persuing some magical place – some mind blowing drugless breathless blurrr – this afternoon I am having neck and back tweaked out again just so I can self induce more whiplash drum kit injuries underneath a shower of my own spit. This is, I think, the most powerful incarnation of Pigface, beyond individuality – a whirlwind of moments – the girls – a four headed sex machine – never mind our glorious crew – how can they deal with all of this everyday? I simply don’t know and am humbled everyday at their super-human efforts to construct magic from nuts and bolts – to create a chocolate coated layer cake from flour and water…..maaaaaaaaaaaaaan ALL of the words I can use just melt and appear formed and record label publicity machine like – you just have to see it to understand – and now that sounds even more record label like so I’ll stop. Last thing – thankyou SO MUCH to all of you that have helped in ANY way – it takes a lot to de-rail this motherfucker BUT it takes some really tiny things from you to make it sparkle and shine – as I say from the stage – never underestimate the difference that you as an individual can make to any situation!
Love Peace RESPECT!!! Martin Atkins
