Satan, and other dudes.

Sitting here in the cave, transferring this from vinyl to CD/MP3 for a friend, thinking all manner of strange thoughts that float around when immersed in semi-Satanic J. Page ambience.

Speaking of Lucifer, went to see the Ayatollah's best bro Salman Rushdie speak in Santa Cruz the other night, courtesy of my dear friend Will, who shares a similar (questionable) taste in lit and such. Sir Rushdie is a charming, witty and refreshingly unpretentious dude! Rather than pimp his new book, he spoke at length about his modest beginnings in advertising copy, the creative inspiration he derives from the Arabian Nights and his mother's gift of gossip, among other topics - all compelling. Gracious as hell when answering questions from the audience. I want to drink whiskey with this guy! Seriously.

Anyway, Will got me an autographed copy of his new book for my BD - will advise. Looks light when compared to Verses or Midnight's Children, but in a good way.
