song 070 : GKM (DNA + Outtakes)

The stream of consciousness spoken word ending of GKM was inspired by an experience I had on tour. I was sick in the back of the van, high on sleeplessness, fever and cold pills. We were in a desolate part of Utah.

As the wheels hummed along the freeway in the dark we rarely saw another car. Through the back seat window I could see the moon full and huge in the sky. Jack Kerouac was playing on the CD player. He was talking about the moon. I might have been sick, but I was on the road.

The song is about our national tour, it’s a pretty straightforward set of notes. “Ashes to ashes in a coffee cup.”
