Happy Belated Birthday, Karl Blau; New LPs, Reissue, Tour

A conversation between Giant and Karl Blau from November 2007:

Giant: I will tell you three things. If I tell them to you, and they come true, then will you believe me?

Karl Blau: Who's that?

Giant: Think of me as a friend.

Karl Blau: Where do you come from?

Giant: The question is, where have you gone?

The first thing I will tell you is: Shell Collection, your out-of-print Knw-Yr-Own release from 1997, is being reissued on deluxe vinyl because of an internet petition. You will request black and white drawings of shells to be included in the album's artwork. You will set the deadline for March 31.

Karl Blau: Shell Collection...

Giant: The second thing is: You released an album titled AM on Kelp! Monthly (issue #16) in 2005. On March 18, 2008, you will release a re-recorded, remixed, and re-sequenced version of AM on Whistler Records.

The third thing is: without chemicals, he points.

Karl Blau: Huh?

Giant: You have a tentatively titled album Nature's Got A Way to release in demo form again on Kelp!. You will release a new version of it on K Records late 2008 or early 2009.

Karl Blau: What do these mean?

Giant: This is all I'm permitted to say. Give me your ring. I will return it to you when you find these things to be true. We want to help you.

Karl Blau: Who's "we"?

Giant: One last thing: Leo locked inside a hungry horse. There is a clue at Leo's house. You will require medical attention.

Karl Blau: Uh... could you PLEASE GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE!?

Giant: Reeeeeeearrrr!!!
