Everything went fine at Sarah Lawrence College |
While I was on stage I asked the kids to educate me on what exactly it is that |
they study there |
A person shouted: |
«We do whatever the hell we want» |
I replied, «Well, that’s what I’ve been doing all my life.» |
I asked what their parents payed for them to do whatever the hell they want and |
a girl in the front row said: |
«$ 60, 000 a year» |
I said, «Well, that’s what Walmart pays me to use my music in commercials and |
that maybe I could go to their school one day too 'cause they all seem like |
really nice people.» |
I explained that Kirk Hammett from Metallica went to college after Metallica |
made it, which was met with a thud |
A nice girl named Sophie played piano on a few songs with us because my mic |
couldn’t reach the piano |
She played the four notes on «Richard Ramirez…"and «Carry Me Ohio"really, |
really, well |
That was a lot of fun |
We also played «When Doves Cry"in honor of Prince, who died the night before |
Steve Shelley played drums with me that night, by the way |
What a great drummer |
Steve’s also a really nice guy |
Great acoustics in the room and the show went really well |
And we got out of there by midnight |
What a cool group of kids and a nice promoter named Max |
It was the first show he ever promoted and he gave me a check in an envelope, |
which I actually didn’t open until just now here in my New York hotel three |
nights after the gig |
This is what his note said: |
«Dear Mark, first of all thank you so much for playing Sarah Lawrence College. |
Even though we have a really small school and don’t get much attention, |
we have a really lot of passionate kids. |
I know every single one of them is |
thrilled to have you come. |
Your music means so much to so many. |
I first heard |
your music when I was searching songs about Los Angeles |
For a project in high school. |
I was fifteen or sixteen, and I came across «Cruiser"and it changed everything for me. It was the music I had been searching |
for for a long time. |
Some people say your music makes them sad and that you |
make sad music. |
I don’t know, I guess I disagree. |
Your music was and is a |
comfort to me. |
I feel a sort of connection to it that is less a melancholic |
thing but more a reassuring thing |
I was taking a seven-hour train across the state of New York. |
I listened to the |
entirety of Benji and Red House Painters I back-to-back. |
I thought of a lot of |
things when I listened to those records. |
And somehow it brought me ease to know |
someone that was thinking some of those same things. |
It was calming and even |
though I’m writing this letter before you even take the stage, I know the scene |
you perform tonight will be one of my most enjoyable moments. |
So thank you |
again so much for coming, I hope you had a nice time |
And I hope this letter finds you well. |
Looking forward to the next record, |
the Jesu/Sun Kil Moon LP was great. |
And hopefully I can see you again on |
November 10th in Brooklyn. |
Best wishes and thanks again |
Max» |
