Holy Crap
Monday, 30 August 2010 08:12

Hi All - Spent yesterday with Chris. We watched 'Anatomy of a Murder' - which was fantastic! Can't believe I haven't seen it before - must see some more Preminger soon. Chris loved it too. Unfortunately after the movie Chris had an attack. He's going through a horrible new phase where he has to fight off a fit for an extended period of time twice a day. I don't want to go into details as it's a private thing really, but suffice to say it's a very unpleasant experience for the poor guy. It's unclear exactly what is causing the fits as he can go for a few days without them & is in a good mood, but then they return - so it doesn't seem medication related. He'll be seeing the doctor again this week to try and get it sorted.

Chris wanted music during the fit so I put on 'Help' & then 'Revolver' really loud  & Chris sung along to distract himself from what he was experiencing. Even though he was suffering it was great to see him mouth the words along to those albums that he's spent so much time loving.

 

 

PS

Hiya Barry - Chris sat me down one night to experience the joys of 'Holy Mountain' several years ago - it's quite a film. The box set is worth getting. How are you?

Your lyrics are truthful, the sounds are like a bedrock beneath my feet. Just listening to Stephen Merritt and 'Beauty' - so great. Just wish there was a cure for you too, Chris. Have been a fan for years. All the best for beating this.

Thinking of you Chris. Sorry to hear your health is not yet what it should be but just want you to know there is much aroha spreading your way from so many adoring friends, fans and aquaintances. All the best bro. x

Hi Roy, wondering if their are any plans for a 2nd stroke tribute, i reckon plenty of loyal knox fans would happily support it and maybe another T shirt design to generate some more $ for Chris's recovery. Best wishes to you, Chris and all the knox clan.
cheers

"Skidoo" is hard to find, but is another Preminger film. I won't say it's a good film, but it is...well, it is. Groucho Marx, Jackie Gleason, Carol Channing, Mickey Rooney and the list goes on. Music by Harry Nilsson.
