how about books? why isn't there a 'favorite books' section for bands/musicians? isn't that kind of sad?
well, i'm the only member of my band, so maybe i'll use this section to write about some books that i like. but then i'll sound even more pretentious than i usually do.
so, what to do? how about some random books i like....john cheever's journals. walker percy's 'the moviegoer'. wittgenstein's 'tractatus'. frank herbert's 'dune'. anything by flannery o'connor. dostoevsky's 'the idiot'. anything by f. paul wilson. rudyard kipling's 'the jungle books'. 'the once and future king'. danny gregory 'everyday matters'. david james duncan's 'the brothers k'. anything fun by neil gaiman, especially 'stardust'. legs mcneil 'please kill me'. lawrence wright 'saints and sinners'. bill bryson's 'mother tongue'. bertolt brecht's 'mother courage and her children.'
ok, i'll stop there for now.

i had a long and factual and fairly tedious bio up here but it was, well, long and fairly tedious. so now i have this. although at present i don't know what 'this' is, as i haven't actually written 'this'. in writing a bio i'm trying to find that nice balance of self-involvement, pithy self-deprecation, and brevity. which leads me to think that i should just stop here. but i've never been one to err on the side of brevity, so i'll just keep writing.
i was born in nyc on september 11, 1965, and now it's 2009 and i still live in nyc. which(living in the same city in which i was born) would be provincial and depressing if nyc didn't happen to be the least provincial and depressing city on the planet. and i'm sort of stuck living in nyc because:
a-i don't have a drivers license(we all benefit from this, trust me, i'm a terrible driver).
b-most of my friends live here.
c-nyc is nice.
what else about me...i make records and occasionally go on tour and play concerts. i'm currently signed to mute records, which makes me proud because mute is a great label and i get to call nick cave and goldfrapp and diamanda galas my label-mates.
now really is the time when i'm going to force myself to err on the side of relative brevity (my other bio was about 30,000 words). thanks for reading.
-moby.
oh, and my next record is called 'wait for me'. it's slow and mournful and melodic. and david lynch made the first video, 'shot in the back of the head'. i'm a lucky musician.
The weather here in Florida is so lovely and I hear we are having another cold front (well, 'Cold Front' in terms of Florida Cold/Not real cold like 'New York', 'Candada' or 'Colorado' cold. ;)
I really enjoyed your Spinner Article Interview article and replied at Moby.com. I'm surprised more people don't write *you* on Moby.com. It's so much more peaceful over there than here on Myspace. Tis a very lovely website *you* have.
Thinking of *you* and wishing *you* a magical week Honey Bunny.Sighs....
I'm so happy it's the Christmas Season!! My Favorite season of all. Smiles and blinks.
