Chloroform Days - Cammy's journal from the end of the Multiverse

The Bri'ish record shop pickings
February 23, 2024

So it turns out, when you let Cammy loose in a foreign country with his Staples money, he buys a shitton of CDs with it. Have a nice look at what I'll have to get through customs in two weeks: There's nineteen in that stack. A few were grabbed from Sister Ray in London (which was honestly pretty unremarkable, though the CD selection was nice), a few more from Spillers once more, and the rest (probably half the stack) were grabbed from the absolutely legendary Kelly's in Cardiff Market. I don't Read more

2021 was an odd time
January 14, 2024

Stream tonight has been rescheduled for next week. My cold had gotten significantly worse—it's a bunch better today, but I still sound pretty stuffed up and I didn't want to be hacking up a lung constantly and chancing screwing up my voice by having to talk for two-plus hours straight. Consider it another week for folks to know I'll be going live soon. I'm still chopping away at some private projects, but I decided to poke at a smaller one this evening: upgraded my Nirvana boxset!

Hello chat!
January 08, 2024

Little minor update—I've gone through all my old streams and given them new thumbnails. Check it out: I've also gone through and standardized the descriptions, so they have proper lists of games, intro songs if present, and a link back to mari.somnol (gotta always be linking places, right?). It's a weird feeling, going back through these old streams and seeing all the names of people who popped in and I don't talk to anymore. Definitely some good times had on those streams, though; I'd like Read more

The neglected journal update rollup, part two
January 04, 2024

I've been playing too much Unreal Tournament Caby finally shipped over the games I bought in Wales! It was a lot of fun sitting and installing them to the eMachines Box from disc, punching in the CD keys, the whole ritual. It's not convenient, but neither is the eMachines Box. It's fun! I'm very happy that the eMachines Box actually offers a much better gaming experience than I initially pegged it for—just so long as those games are five years older than the box itself. As Caby said once Read more

Happy Bandcamp Friday
December 01, 2023

Happy December, happy Bandcamp Friday! I cleared out my wishlist: Given how the site has been shuddering a little internally lately, I felt it might be a good time to buy a bunch of albums I've been meaning to (I always pay extra because I'm a sap like that) and download them for safekeeping. Was jamming to Vansire this morning. Got something musical myself on the way in a bit. Stay tuned. Read more

It's not for the season
September 18, 2023

One of those fabled long-term Cammy projects has just appeared on the group blog: a First Draft entry focusing on last year's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot boxset, exactly 22 years after that album streamed for the first time on wilcoworld.net. I wrote the majority of this thing back in June, and with that anniversary just a few months off, I knew I had to hold it for today. Paired with that is a boxset and bootleg reference on cammy.somnol, showing you the overlap between each set of Wilco demos. Going Read more
