BIF NAKED - "My Goals Are All About Touring"
November 15, 2008, 15 years ago
Canadian rocker BIF NAKED, who is currently battling breast cancer, has issued the following update:
"Namaste and salutations to you Beautiful People... The week has been ripe with fun and shenanigans for me, as usual. Yeah... one has to 'find the fun' in the everyday. I believe it's part of being 'mindful' and living fully concious of every moment. I find my fun in the constant drag of hospitals by trying my best Don Rickles impersonations. It used to be Eddie Murphy (circa his Delirious era) but I discovered the hard way, that his constant peppering of 'fuck' in his monologue made my efforts unwelcome. Rickles' jokes were a little cleaner. Laughin's good for us. I think it is the very nutrition of the soul.Unfortunately, for the oncology staff, I never shut up. More than anyone else, I will bet they endeavour to get me well enough, so they can kick my gregarious ass out of the cancer center - just to have some peace and quiet! Heh heh. Frankly, my goals are all about TOURING! Like a fucking ten year old with a big dream, I think about returning to my former life every day. EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY I dream of killin' myself in those favorite venues where the sweat from us all condences on the low-hanging ceilings, dripping down and drenching us with the sheer rock of the moment. Fuck yeah! Meditate, concentrate, focus on the path. Om nama shivaya. Om hare om.
Be well. Laugh until your belly hurts.
Love,
Biffy
