America 8tracks By Amanda on June 21, 2009 7:55 PM | Permalink | Comments (6)
So in two short (but not, alas, sort enough) weeks I am tripping to the USA. Las Vegas (for The Amaz!ng Meeting), Flagstaff AZ where my sister has been exiled since that unfortunate incident in Canberra (don't fret darl, the statute of limitations ends in 2018), Chicago and Memphis (and one day waiting for a plane in Los Angeles.) Obvs the music possibilities in those few short words are, more or less literally, endless. I chucked 18 or so on an 8tracks:
It ends with "a Sydney song."
As a bonus here are some bits from Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour about Memphis and Chicago. The first two are under 1MB each (spoken word atmospherics only), the third about 4MB.

Ahh Canberra...i have no regrets or fingerprints
Yay. Can't wait till you are here.
Don't forget Vegemite, I'm almost empty (those tooth paste tubes of them will do) and Johnsons Euc Lollies....or there may be an unfortunate accident at the Grand Canyon...just saying...those Condors get mighty hungry.

I'm just a regular office monkey, nothing to do with the conference. That stuff is just one of my hobbies, and its THE event to be at ...
