We're on MySpace and FaceBook Now


We now have a MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/astrolovetri .


It has a piece of music composed by RGB Music Lab from this photo.

And we have a Facebook group.

Facebook works well for inviting people to events, MySpace works well for demonstrating our music.

Ottawa Debut - Sally's Salon


Introduction from Chris White:

Friends,

We are fortunate indeed to be placed at this locus on the space-time continuum.

This is because we are about to experience a physical embodiment of the work of post-millennial concept artists, Astronaut Love Triangle.

Relying more on discovery than creation, they take you today on an exploration of the zeitgeist of the collective unconsciousness. Please welcome Astronaut Love Triangle.

Conceptual Terrorists: We didn't do it

From the Onion:

CHICAGO—In what is being called the first conceptual terrorist attack on American soil, the landmark Sears Tower was encased in 18 million tons of strawberry gelatin early Monday morning, leaving thousands shocked, angry, and seriously confused. ...

Tentative speculation that the dessert enclosure was in fact an act of terrorism was quickly confirmed after a group known only as the Prophet's Collective took credit for the attack in a three-hour-long video that surfaced on the Internet.

"Your outdated ideas of what terrorism is have been challenged," an unidentified, disembodied voice announces following the video's first 45 minutes of random imagery set to minimalist techno music.

"It is not your simple bourgeois notion of destructive explosions and weaponized biochemical agents. True terror lies in the futility of human existence."

We have a Wiki

Yes, that is right, we have a wiki now and anyone can edit it.

I've put a few things on it, including my someday-to-be-brilliant French song about my lost umbrella and the beginning of our manifesto.

Debut - Little Lepreau 18 August 2007


Is it music or is it art?

It was a big night in Little Lepreau.

Set list:

  • Why don't we do it in the road - Lennon-McCartney
  • I Just Don't Want to Talk to You - Scrimshaw
  • Caroline - Jettz
  • I Escaped - Agatha
  • Easy - A.L.T.



The famous Deb Nobes introduces us

The Introduction:

In every generation there are those who challenge the dominant hierarchy and bring about a revolution in the way the world is perceived.

Tonight we are privileged to hear from one such group.

Eschewing the mainstream musical emphasis on melody, harmony, rhythm and rehearsal, this new force in concept art brings us a new performance paradigm.

Ladies and gentlemen, children and dogs, we bring you, Astronaut Love Triangle...

Updated Logos

I think this will look good on our bass drum and on our instrument cases:






Later, when we release our third or fourth cd and it goes in a wildly different direction, we can use this colour inverted version of the logo:

Lyric: Desultory Dylan Thing

I've run through my life
on secondary roads
Sun in the rearview mirror
and sinking
Horizon the size of a windshield
and shrinking

Black pavement shines
Like chrome in the sun
And this narrow road
Has no shoulder to cry on
Just another affair
of the heartland gone wrong
(Repeat)

Last night seems a dream
"Take my shirt off" she said
As we stared through the twilight at the end of the bed
"I just want you to hold me
And me to hold you
Like it's just like us in the world...

Now i drive through the foothills alone
Seeking ground that's higher
And what peace I can find
With a clear sight line
to the edge of the sky

(Chorus repeat to fade)

Lyric: I Escaped

G A
I escaped with my morals intact
C G
and hell, only to go back


G C
I escaped for a while,
insanity
from hospital in a taxi

I escaped the noise of the city
by the skin of my teeth.
from hard drive hell



I escaped from my certain fate
from Alcatraz
from Gilligan's Island.

I escaped this afternoon,
from Ward 13 to write this
by the grace of God.

F E x 4
I escaped with 60 dollars
I escaped being eaten by a pelican
nervous breakdown
to breathe ocean air.

Lyric: Caroline

Just got home from Caroline's
Hair so long and eyes so bright
Had to tell her how I felt
You know we nearly talked all night

Had to tell her that I love her
And you know, she said she loves me too.

Can't believe how good it feels
to tell a woman that I love her
And now I know just how she feels
I can't stop thinking of her

You know she makes me happy
And yeah she said she loves me too.
