"soundcheck" ::
call into my telethon, dial up and play your harmonica. to me. oh it hurts my ears it hurts my ears.. to hear.. you scream. beautiful soundtrack of kazoos.. are you following me through? will you be my morning ride? back to class oh let's divide. you owe me a sweet talk and you can't deny the way that we will be.. you'll see. you don't lose too much but you will lose the time you have apart you won't.. you don't. beautiful soundtrack of kazoos.. are you following me through? will you be my morning ride? back to class oh let's divide.

"motion" :: other cheek the third eye religious doubt that god's a spy no no he gets scared understood he's understood he's understood you took my mental nap and gave it a mental cap took my face pet a cat take it back just take it back just take it back take it back

"by boat from below" :: put in the good word for me, my dear, wisdom for all to hear. take a seat to please me if you will take a seat, dear, take a, seat dear. napkin in your lap, blankly stare, realize you have three forks. stained ties are never a pick me ups, so pick, me up, so put, you down. so put me in your time-zone, alone so we can talk, pardon my settled reason, while all the others watch. trans-continental by boat from below, used to say but now they don't show, meaningless minds take me down on the scale, playground diamonds last forever oh please. the sonic death is the one for me the sonic death is the one for us. so put me in your time-zone, alone so we can talk, pardon my settled reason, while all the others watch. (jacob on guitar). i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you i'm dyin to meet you.

debut of the song "library." :: you surround yourself with cookies to make me feel like honey and barbeque your sweet dreams cos baby you're like honey tear off my face face the facts to candy tear off my face face the facts to candy tear off my face face the facts to candy tear off my face face the facts to candy it's 10 for a packet of paper and you get plenty to spend don't forget no. 2 pencils fresh from the 46 end stickers multi-colored for 10 bags i was helping homeless i was helping i was helping homeless i was helping. we were helping the homeless and now we're helpless and now we're restless where's my scissors to cut open this box and i was helpless and now we're homeless where's my scissors to cut opent his box? i was helping homeless i was helping i was helping homeless i was helping.

"red" :: inconsistent logic leaves a glass half full of nothing. if something seems unsolved then maybe you're just missed. poetry killed the feeling that you couldn't put into words. idle minds leave idle presence as i present to you this gift. as those that never were, i hope you you come back soon. quiet. so your dreams can seem real, turn on your christmas lights. imaginary motivation up to any kind of end.

from jackisulley

"the only live video of us on the internet that i know of is this one taken by jacki sulley from the ivy mansion in new brunswick. i think i got too wasted too play but the band continued to rock without me. something like that. hope it finds you well." - Mike S (of Michael Jordan)

it's pretty fucking hard to find videos of michael jordan on the internet. just try. put "michael jordan" in youtube and see what you get. i guarantee it won't be the band from new jersey. maybe i'll go film them myself.

as a full band (with mike S on 2nd drums and vocals) they absolutely destroy. they are the loudest band i've ever heard and the energy is out of control. see them live as soon as you can.

trv #007 - the Pidgeons, "Ophelia"

2008-09-20T00:08:00.002-04:00

Pidgeons filmed by Debbie Hay

"steal my sister from my house, take some flour from my kitchen, use my bedroom for your things, you can take down all my walls, Ophelia. stay awake till we get home. collapse blindly, without mission, ask permission, before sinning, use protection, don't ask nicely, take control and then apply, Ophelia. stay awake till we get home."

not all of our songs sounded like this. this was actually the oldest song in our repertoire, our longest song, and our slowest song. i think it was also our only song in 3/4. we played this song at the end of nearly every show and half the people hated it and half the people slow danced. another half didn't like us to begin with and were getting annoyed that we were going on for so long on this slow last number. the ending got more chaotic the more we played it especially as we were breaking up. i remember diving into PJ's drumset at the end of ophelia at a gig in front of 15 wallflower emo-girls in eastern PA. this performance was at west windsor-plainsboro north highschool where our cigarettes were taken and we were threatened by a fat security guard who probably couldn't tell the difference between his face and his asshole. i guess that's what you get for playing a benefit show - hauling all your shit to a venue for no pay. it was a great set though and opposing perfection (now Anchorage) followed us, getting kicked off stage for coming on drunk with a george W bush mask on and then proceeding to impale it on a mike stand, screaming obscenities. -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)

trv #005 - the Pidgeons, "Jack Eats Jill"

2008-09-19T23:44:00.002-04:00

Pidgeons filmed by Debbie Hay

this was a shitty gig. we were excited to play philly (we had a lot of fun at Faux Fetus shows) but this was the wrong gig at the wrong time. it was hot as balls out and we had to park at least 10 blocks away to a venue with no audience and more importantly, no back-line. hauling equipment back and forth sweating and cramping to play a half hour set for nobody that we were too exhausted to play anyhow. cool song though. -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)

trv #004 - Rasputin's Secret Police, "Gothic Dreaming"

2008-09-19T23:31:00.001-04:00

by Conor Meara
this was the last film i made. i was checking out wynne records shows and getting amped for the release of Rasputin's Secret Police's then-forthcoming album "Lost Rhino." i brought a camcorder to a show in some highschool in a philly suburb and then edited it to a sneak-peek track from the record, a mid-tempo acoustic love song (?) that contrasted way way way much with their sound live. here's a little video of contrast (yes, musicians can be multi-dimensional) -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)

trv #003 - Conor Meara, "Cigarette Run"

2008-09-19T23:30:00.003-04:00

so now's where i've dropped out of college and despite all this i was still making little movies. this and the last are synchronized with instrumental music i made in 2004 leaving the music to my past and freeing my mind and hands to work with this new medium of film. this was filmed in a night or two culminating in debbie hay calling me to see what i was up to and my responding "we have to find a dead deer." we found one. some live ones too. -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)

trv #002 - Conor Meara, "Dance/Fight"

2008-09-19T23:29:00.002-04:00

this is a video i made once i graduated highschool and was dealing with the bullshit of going straight to another 4 years of liberal education. though instead of central new jersey, now we're in new york. there really wasn't much to like about it at that point and in many ways i still think manhattan is a shitty place to be. this is what i did instead of doing my homework. -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)

trv #001 - Conor Meara, "Pidgeon & Peasant"

2008-09-19T23:27:00.001-04:00

my first film -- the first half of a senior project (highschool) that i never finished. the concept was "a day in the life" contrasting people with similar passions, one in highschool and one out of highschool. this included part 1: pidgeon vs. peasant, with alec (every bunny welcome, at that point part of the pidgeons) as the in-school musician and damien derose (peasant) as the out-of-highschool musician. the second half featured a high school student at an affluent private highschool training to join the marines (he's currently deployed in the mid-east) versus a highschool graduate who had been in the marines but just loopholed his way out of basic training and was putting his life/career back in order. i never finished part two as the project was in a short period of time, i had never filmed or edited anything before and the two latter characters were pretty elusive. enjoy. -Conor Meara (c/o tamur.records)
