One of the most exciting things about the emergence of Jandek as a
live performance entity is the interactions with his musical peers...
it's strange and touching, and it feels like the guy that came out of
a long coma, or Japanese soldiers coming down out of the hills decades
after the end of WWII.  The reality may be more mundane, but that is
the way that it FEELS, and in no way reduces Jandek's legendary
status, in some ways it enhances the legend.

He could spend the rest of his career confounding and delighting his
fans with unexpected live collaborations.  Jandek and Eugene
Chadbourne.  Jandek and Sonic Youth. Jandek and Jah Wabble.  Jandek
and The Bay City Rollers.  Who knows?  The possibilities are endless,
and delightful to think about.
