About me: ~ i am victor b. bicycle. crazier than a shithouse rat some would say. i was born upon a hill top green as the sky is blue; raised into a family of southern hospitality; lonely but with plenty of friends; out to save the world while i plan to take it over; will punch a nazi in the face; my violence is a skinny arm, carved "suck for honesty" on my chest. ~
.....i also enjoy writing and musicing and long walks on candle lit beaches while i choke up foam for the sea. Not to mention waving flags of revolution for my community and talking to strangers about art and future pursuits! i am a curious one. i am half of Comptroller Constable. and Kitten Opinion and Molotov Pipedream. ("bands")
here's my Stella with the prettiest purr. she gets us where we gotta go.
bicycle boy - over and out. ~

Hola Victor, you ready to terra perma some faces off tomorrow @ WonderRoot? We got this upcoming show at Smith's that we need all the support we can get. Come by and bring some folks to Smith's...much thanks for your continued support. Thanks, Aviva and her Flying Penguins.
i was just thinking about you! I am calling you very, very soon! I miss you! thanks for the loving comment. I really, really miss you. How are you? That is so cute about how we met. I can't wait to hear your voice again!
O y e s! Mr. Lonely. Perhaps we should play a show opening for the high energy Black Lips. It prb won't go together, but we LOVE them. Haven't been to Atlanta for a while either.
Hey Mr. Bicycle, I wish I had some songs to send you, but I really don't. Ummmm, some of my friends and I record some "free improvisations" from time to time under the name Black Thirteen. Ben posts them(and a bunch of other stuff) at http://awakeasong.blogspot.com/ Soooo, you could check that out if you'd like. In lieu of my customary awww-shucks-routine(a standard whenever I talk about something creative I'm involved in) I'll just let you read Ben's blog entries.
victor darling, you've got me on a fence post.. i'm still waiting to hear from you about the weekend of the 19th 20th and 21st. we'll come to your town if you'll play a show with us.. (and hang out, maybe build druid alters or something)
i'm trying to get our schedule nailed down and i really need to know like a week ago. so the sooner you reply the better.
yo victOR. i'll come to georgia. but only if i get to play a sweet ass show with YOU. and by that i mean naked ritualisic party, obviously. but seriously how did you land in chicago with leonard cohen.. ? that is completely bizarre. thanks for the compliments.. i wrote a pretty seriously flattering blog about you at taratoms.blogspot.com if you care to have your ego pumped a bit... also i'll come to georgia on the weekend of the 19th, 20th, or 21st of june. let's make it happen. pick the date that works best for you and email me and it will be a THING.
