Hi there man, Lenny here.
Things have really been happening eh?!
Just a few months ago we were munching on grass and staring at peoples as they drive pass our field, but now we are a mega metal band! Groovy!
Since the album came out things have gone wild! On the opening night we went to a store in Shibuya, Tokyo and had a great time! We met lots of peoples and even some cows that came in from the Japanese countryside to see us...we were so happy to see them. We played a few songs for them and everyone had a great time. It is a great feeling to play music and see people and cows together enjoying it.
My bass playing is pretty good now I reckon. At first I based my playing style on Sid Vicious but I realised quickly that he was a crap bassist, so I based it on Klaus Flouride of the Dead Kennedy's and things worked out better.
Ozzy, that is, Ozzy Osbourne, gave me a life size statue of Anubis, Egyptian God of embalming!! Man I was chuffed to get it! I have admired Anubis for a long time. So he stands next to me on stage at every gig we do!
Recently I read a book about Buddhism, especially Tibetan buddhism and it was far out! So I have started meditating everyday and I swear I have become a better cow for it. You should try it. The first thing I learned is that material possesions are a barrier to having a fulfilling and peaceful life. The other guys in the band are buying up large since we got paid but I will buy nothing...instead I will use my money to go to Tibet and meditate with Khenchen Konchog Gyaltshen Rinpoche
Grand Abbot of the Drikung Kagyu. I can't say his name but he is an inspiration!
I will try to get the other guys to come with me after touring is over but judging from their spending recently I think they won't be into it.
Gunther bought something interesting though. He got the complete series of Twin Peaks...man, what a mind blower!
So I will see you later.
Karma!
