Circles


What you see sounds to you like trashy noise, a big old load, is in fact...brilliant genius like Iggy Pop's music, myself.

I Don't Believe You

She Acts Like We Never Have Met 2

How does it feel
To be
Like a Rolling Stone?

I'm being harassed because I'm a great artist. Can you believe that shit? I'm like Jim Morrison, and these pussys are trying to fuck with me.

I come from a place where a great artist is treated like a Gahan.

I took a class taught by Andy Hollinden at Indiana University called Captain Beefheart, The Beach Boys, and The Residents. Did you know Don Van Vliet sculpted every animal there was as a child? You want to be a different fish, you've got to study Captain Beefheart in school.

Intent matters so much. Just like when I say rock and roll it's the real thing instead of bullshit.

I'm free because I understand people plan on trying to keep me a slave, I'd leave the farm on it.

Life is about circles, so make a good one.

Come all together

Peace

Fragments of Who We Are

Most people get the name right, Wintersox. The correct pronunciation is like Christmas stockings. Though some people have said Winters' Ox.

Bad Moon Rising

What it is I shouldn't say
Sound better that a way

Pumping Station









Wintersox recently spoke to the press about Here Comes the Party People and said the following:

I took acid and saw David Byrne, And He Was

From flowers flowers grow.

Say Bonaparte like Dylan, bony part. That's real power.

Spell magic like magick because it's about spelling.

Punching Jesus, like you're the greatest fucking star.

Twinkle Twinkle Wizard Floyd

Asking most rock stars if they ever did drugs is like asking a movie buff if they ever got Candy. Drugs are bad, not really. What kind of a sweet tooth do you have?

The end was essentially saying thank you to everyone, taking a bow, it was my induction into the rock and roll hall of fame. The fucking proof. Fuck you.

Here Comes the Party People

I Love You

The Artist With Lights



Wintersox recently spoke to the press about Here Comes the Party People and said the following:

Wintersox New Years Concert
Set 1: Wintersox Reads Here Comes the Party People
Set 2: The Music
Encore: Wintersox Comes Out And Smashes Guitar

Bright Side of the New Years Ball

Listen to magic
Give her your word
Love her forever
If you only could

There's no real communication going on here. Perhaps Bowie says something every now. And Ziggy.

Good artists make good business decisions. Great artists sign everything.

Strummer Calling

The truth
Do you accept
This Clash call

Should I Clash or Should I Strummer

Your words have to do with you, man. You are talking about where you are going. There's no heaven, Imagine that.

Here I am now, Entertainment.

Brion Burroughs William S. Gysin

"Every particle of this universe contains the whole of the universe. Well you and yourself have the whole of the universe, I cut you up in a certain way, I cut up the universe. If you have a prerecorded universe in which everything is already prerecorded, the only thing that is not that prerecorded are the prerecordings themselves." -William S. Burroughs

"Every particle of the universe, if you have a prerecorded universe. Well you and yourself have the already prerecorded. The only thing, I cut you up in a certain way are the prerecordings themselves. The whole of the universe in which everything is whole of the universe. That is not prerecorded. I cut up the universe." -Wintersox

When I chow down
With Leonard and Roshi
It is up on Mt. Baldy
Where the food is good

"You and I represent art right now, that’s my gut feeling."
-Wintersox, in a letter to Anton Newcombe

What kills most artists isn't drugs, it's trying to provide something for a group of lunatics called people. It is the social pressure to be someone glossy instead of someone human that kills artists. Great ones feel the pressure to be scratch and sniffs like roses.

You're someone with a name. You're someone who has his reality provided for him. The television is never really challenged. That's the way the world is, bullshit. Someone more clueless than you tells you what to do. The best thing for you is to become a caveman, really. Eat, drink, sleep, fuck, and make art. Be a caveman. People laugh because deep inside they know you're ahead of them.
