The Dismayed Case
the crime: [no paranoia] ------------ "el sitio" -------- (!) .- the guilty ones: Natalia (and her multiple personalities) & Pablo (honey!) Carrera, Federico Batallino & Carolina Rizzi... and Radiohead. the accomplices: Alejandra & Daniela López, Mariana Suárez, Hernán Alasia, Fernando García... and Radiohead. the witness: me (the cat), Mephisto (my cat friend) & Persio (the dog), my owner's father & from some place of heaven their mother, the house, the bathroom, the city of Córdoba and also Buenos Aires (especially, the botanical garden and the cats), Ivette (our favourite aunt) and Mariel (her sweet daughter), ... and all our favourite "no-Radiohead" bands: Tool, The Gathering, REM, Travis, My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, A Perfect Circle, Depeche Mode, Ella Fitzgerald, Charles Mingus, Trembling Blue Stars, Doves, Grandaddy, Air, Tori Amos, The Beatles, Stray Cats, The Cure, U2, Sex Pistols, Patti Smith, Portishead, Björk, Kristin Hersh, Janis Joplin, PJ Harvey, Alanis Morissette, Fiona Apple, The Sugarcubes, Throwing Muses, Underworld, Aphex Twin, Autechre, Jeff Buckley, Scott Walker, Elvis Costello, Venus in Furs, Eric Clapton, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chilli Pepers, Sparklehorse, Pavement, Primal Scream, Massive Attack, Stereophonics, New Radicals, Oasis, B'52, The Carpenters, The Smiths, The Pixies, Sigur Rós, Stereolab, Beach Boys, Beastie Boys, Yo la Tengo, Madonna, Live, Stone Temple Pilots, Pulp, Placebo, el "Polaco" Goyeneche, Adriana Varela, Astor Piazzola, Divididos, Pez, Arbol, Sumo, Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota, Babasónicos, Fabulosos Cadillacs, Soda Stéreo, Gustavo Cerati, Luis Alberto Spinetta, Charly García... nd many more.... and of course, Radiohead. the victims: many papers, magazines & newspapers, the scissors, the glue, watercolors, paintbrushes, pencils, the dictionary, the vinyls and cd's, the books, tables, our pictures,chairs, the computer, internet, many friends and dear people, some Radiohead non official web sites, the Radiohead official web site... and Radiohead too. the jury: everyone... and Radiohead. the address to the jury: Nobody wants to become responsible about this place, maybe because in fact nobody is responsible for their acts... then, since I am the symbol representing this whole disaster I can declare myself as the biggest fan of Radiohead in this house... you will have the discernment to deduce about the general and mental state of this Dismayed people... after all, they are just human beings, as you... and i am just a cat, and we cats just do cat's things... and of course, we also listen to good music. Dismayed is how they called the whole idea... it started in a very weird and kind of sad way, and many of those 'ideas' are here just because we want to share it -whatever it all means- with all the people. My owner was not having a good time... you know, you humans have all really good times and really really bad times. Then, in the worst period of time, the only thing that my owner could do was just to listen music. But not any music, I can tell you. Radiohead was like the only connection with the real world to my owner. And suddenly, while my owner was trying to deal with all the shit inside that stunned head, one day began to gather magazines, newspapers and that kind of stuff and started to do something with it. At first some people just got worried or laughed about this, but after a while many of them started to do the same thing. It really was and still is an amazing scene to see those friends sharing really good times, almost without speaking, just cutting and gluing figures, or painting while we all listened the wonderful music of Radiohead. And now, when things are really getting better, they all just got used to do that. So, Dismayed was something that just happened... we all meet several times during the week just to listen to Radiohead's music, talk about them or whatever and from those 'meetings' just emerge some things as strange as amusing... and amazing. well people, this is not kind of 'group therapy' or a 'fan club' or something like that... they are just a bunch of friends sharing good things... and, in fact, some of those people didn't listen to Radiohead before for different reasons... so, you can blame my owner, because now all those friends and people just love Radiohead and their music. And that's a great thing, don't you think? Somehow, we all are healing our wounds by dedicating some time to enjoy the company of dearest people, this great music and creating things inspired by those special moments. yes friends, me too... i'm just a cat, but we cats also have our own problems and so many things to deal with... cat word. Farewell friends... Dismayed - The Cat the acknowledgments: to Thom Yorke, Colin & Jonny Greenwood, Phil Selway & Ed O'Brien... good music doesn't need any explanation, even if we seem to be scary... all this is dedicated to each one of you and to the whole people that enjoys your wonderful music. the judgment / condemnation: it's all in your hands... noparanoia@itookmyprozac.com . (it's real, no joke)
