This Gadget Has No Title

“A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you . . . Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question . . . Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't it is of no use.”
― Carlos Castaneda

Bill Hicks - Igby's, Last Show (1993)

*

I like the last minute of this video where Bill Hicks sets the watermelon on the stool while Killing In The Name by Rage Against the Machine plays. He winds up with the mic and DOESN'T smash the melon  as expected. He then gives the double salute while "Fuck you! I wont do what you tell me!" screams over the sound system. He was such a beacon of intelligent, rational thinking. The Anti-Gallagher.

Bill Hicks helped to heal our perceptions and collective unconsciousness. This show was not long before he passed away from pancreatic cancer and it appears he was in some pain during the performance. An angry show but pointed.

*Listening to the last moments on his Arizona Bay album* "There is a God. He loves us all so much"
