So much to catch up on … so little time. For now, last weeks Circle featuring The Sheikh, The Caliph, The Sheriff, The Professor, and Captain Cat:

Frank came over earlier “to help with something”, and I made this breakfast:

The catering looked a little like this:

This was played:

Track 32 should read side one of A Passion Play by Jethro Tull, perfect for catering.

We then tried on the new album by Tool.

Pretty nice, right?

One of my favourite Summers continues to roll out. Here we are at High Summer. So many damn good times and revelations. My ghost work continues and soon I’ll be an official trolley ghost host. The driver I was working with last night compared my delivery style to Alfred Hitchcock – the master of suspense.

Another Great component of these days is Persephone’s return to gig life on the road. Last week she had to go to Phoenix Arizona so, of course, I had to join. 50 hours in a very strange land can make quite an impression and I’d like to believe I made good use of the time.

One of the highlights was a visit to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin West complex. His wife, Olglivana, was one of Gurdjieff’s students and one of his primary dancers in his movements. Her influence was quite palpable. It was essentially a fourth way school and few even knew it…

There was a picture in the performance space that showcased the Gurdjieff movements. The tour guide asked if anyone knew what these dancers were. I said they were Gurdjieffians, he said “what?”, I repeated myself and he said “no they weren’t Russians, these were students that Olgivanna taught to dance” – as part of their apprenticeship program.

Hmmm … the esoteric remains just that: esoteric.

Some photos:

After that we drove two hours north to Jerome Arizona. I picked this place to be able to see some of the country that I never get to experience and I was attracted to the name of the winery, a place called caduceus cellars.

I forgot that Maynard from Tool got into this enterprise, it was a great surprise and comfort and revelation to be reminded of that, and that it resides at a place called Jerome. A former copper mining town, then a ghost town, now this interesting art community. High a-top a mile-high spiral up a mountain side: shocking and beautiful.

A few more photographs:

Many thanks to Visitor Blim who visited the Cats.

I think we’re all still having a good time.

This is a time of great changes, I have taken on a new night position, as you all know, and I have left my day job for a new day job where I now serve my clients here at The New Great Hall by the Sea.

We have a new initiate in the Circle. Andrew visited as a client but left as an initiate of the Circle:

Here is what we played:

Pretty nice, right?

Things are looking good for a Circle on Thursday 11 of July. Join us!

Busy times. Day job has radically and surprisingly changed. New night job continues to unfold. As a “Ghost Host” I give 18 minute tours of graveyards in Boston at night. Part of a 90 minute trolley tour. Soon I begin training to be the Ghost Host of the trolley. Meanwhile, meet Harlan Hayvrast: coffin maker, member of the Gourmand Society:
