Daniel Johnston's TOUR NOTEBOOK - Daniel is dependant on his notebook for a performance, and we had a chance for an interesting glimpse at a page
"Baby, You're Driving Me Crazy" - (it's nice to have someone to blame)

In anticipation of the continued stream of questions about this song which Daniel sang on tour: the song does not appear on any album nor does any studio recorded copy of the song exist.   I've been told by many that the song "sounds like a pop hit" - something that sticks in your head after hearing it only once.  Daniel says he expects the song to be on the next album.  I'll try to get a sampling of the song to post here later...   (does anyone have a bootleg recording of it that we can use?)   Thanks for your interest.

NOTE: We've been alerted to the fact that the single line "Baby, you're driving me crazy" is renown in MANY songs, and that there is one song in particular where the melody accompanying that single line is very similar.   We are assured by Daniel that this song - while the first line is common in many songs - and the melody accompanying that line - while very similar with at least one other artist - is his own song and melody.   The rest of the song bears this out as being Daniel's own.

While talking the taboo subject of BOOTLEGS, does anyone have a bootleg recording of the BERLIN performance on July 8th?   We're especially interested in the first song done that evening.  No, this is not a "sting" operation!   Thanks.

[regarding Daniel Johnston] "...he exemplifies, more than any artist I know, the brilliance of a man who allows his heart to sing, even when his abilities may not equal his intent. The result is honest and that's what his music is to those who love him. It is real, it is sublime, it is the truth."
    - Eric Heuber, filmmaker
Winner of the JUNE 2003 CD Give-away:
The drawing from existing and new members

Great fan feed-back from the tour!!!  It is difficult to know what to share.  I selected one email from the many NEW fans writing, as it shows he is new to Daniel's stuff, he's willing to take "risks" in the proliferate musical world, and he was willing to be honest with his reaction!  See FEATURED TOUR INFO

June Quiz - Question #2

What is this picture?  (and is it for real?)

Answers:

A digital mirage

I believe it is the documentary film currently being made, with possible broadcast interests from HBO.

June QUIZ - Question #1 - "What is this picture?"
some responses: - a wet dream

 
- asymmetry

 
- bliss

 
- jackpot!
- That photo is the reason that the men in the clean white coats finally came to get me. Because of this picture, i spent three hours concentrating to try to enter my monitor so that i could listen to them and find out what they might possibly hold. I can only pray to the merciful lord above that there's a way a could buy / get copies of these!!!!!!!  If the merciful lord god above doesn't come through for me, I might have to pray to others...  Maybe passersby on the streets if necessary.  Rats in the gutter, pieces of lint, anything.
