Little sweetheart, colleagues in France are helping the band up our profile a little bit. A pair of them are also Wikipedia editors/contributors and last night they published a page for the band.
It's here: Bipolar Explorer Wikipedia page.
I sent it to your dad right away because he loves Wikipedia. Remember how you told me in your first Christmas letter to me that he would be "reading aloud shocking statistics about religion or politics"?
Anyway, it was very nice of our new French friends to get everything together and approved and published on the site and my favorite part is that it includes what I said to Indiemusic about you being the heart and conscience of the band, my work and life. It's this:
"All of this is entirely for her. I often say that our music, each
album, is of, for and about her. It’s my way of telling people about her
and talking to her myself. That’s the “for’ and “about” parts of the
equation. And Summer remains an integral part of the band - not only as
its inspiration but, because I have lots of her isolated vocals from
other recording sessions - as her voice, both spoken and singing, graces
each record. I’ll write songs and fly in her voice. Summer isn’t the
main reason BPX goes on, she’s the only reason. She is the reason. And I
think I can trust that I’m doing things for the right reason if I
always know the reason for it is her. Not out of any ambition other than
to honor and conjure her. She’s my conscience. "
