The page contains detailed informational notes and transcriptions of the song lyrics by Leslie Singer of Girls On Fire herself, plus photos, show posters, and reviews

This archival reissue of Life is Too Funny — I Think I’ll $hoot Myself is presented here with the complete authorization, cooperation and participation of Leslie Singer.

"Camus' Crashing, Burning, and Eating Hungry Man TV Dinners" was recorded at Club Foot in San Francisco on November 18, 1983. The SF duo The Dave along with our mutual friend, John Hricko, held the tape recorder and provided commentary.

The audio transcription comes from Al Margolis' personal copy of the cassette which he received personally from Leslie Singer in the 1980s.

In addition to the nine songs as separate tracks, included here you will be able to listen to Life is Too Funny — I Think I’ll $hoot Myself as one continuous 30-minute side of a cassette, just like you would have heard it in the 1980s.

Rather than describe what this sounds like (a futile task), I will describe how it makes me feel. First it is much like white noise, blocking the world around me. It's just me and whatever I happen to be giving my attention to with no distractions or external worries. Then it is energizing and uplifting. I have more focus and energy. These soundscapes get me in the zone to help me concentrate on whatever I'm doing, whether it be washing dishes or scrolling Facebook. And it sounds damn cool too. dharmalogos
