Perhaps I've been working on the Kate Bush Web Page too much lately: installing a search engine; hassling with perl scripts to build a guestbook and the Talk to Kate page; putting up the Kate Bush Web; and hundreds of lines of text, photos and movies. Too much, really. *** I had this dream this morning. I was able to go to a Kate concert. The music was beautiful, haunting, surreal. When it was over, I realized that there were t-shirts available, but I had no money. I raced out of the concert hall, back to my house (early de-construction, kind of like the houses in Eraserhead). I got $20 and made it back to the hall wearing only a pair of pants and a long coat; I remember thinking I'd left my shirt at home so I could put on the t-shirt immediately. The hall was empty. The salesman gone. I was about to leave when the scene shifted. I was outside, again in an Eraserhead-type setting. There was a shattered building behind me, and a large yellow schoolbus in front. The schoolbus was Kate's touring vehicle, and she was holding court in the building behind me. I looked around and saw Kate. Then I realized that everyone, male and female, looked like Kate. Some were brothers and sisters. Others were roadies. There were very young Kates (9-10 years old) and more mature Kates (35-50). But there was only one real Kate. Kate didn't talk to me in this Dreaming, but her much younger look-alike sister did. She got me the t-shirt, white with orange flames and the words "LoveHound". I stashed myself and the t-shirt in the bombed-out building, and listened to Kate (though she still never spoke) and her court. I woke up, but I can't find the t-shirt. *** Yep. Definitely spending waaaaayyy too much time programming. I need a break. I think this time I'll just listen to The Red Shoes and not try to figure out how to get it online.
