I hung with AWK before and post a shows in washington dc a few times. I feel my bullshit detector is pretty good and as far as I could tell he was truly a genuine and nice person. He was very nice to everybody and stayed for hours after the shows signing every last person. We kept in contact via email for a little while. we lost touch and years later I saw some interviews years later and I also felt really strange about who i was seeing. I cant speculate about anything but can say this is Im intrigued.

The first show I saw in DC was seriously one of the most energetic and exciting shows I ever saw. here's a photo:

I read the whole thing...and yeah it does take awhile.
Some of it is pretty fascinating in terms of the coding but some of the stuff is completely hokey.
ie. the tom cruise thing..

But I think if given enough resources and time some things things can be over analyzed and turn out bizarre. Some radiohead albums have cryptic stuff. Most of the time it seems like it's just for fun.

I don't know..I'm not convinced but I was highly entertained.
