So tired. It’s 3.27am and my brain is whirling in ci… no… it’s grinding around in circles, running over things over and over and over again like a woman in a Chrysler on her boyfriend with a grudge. Or something. Heh, like when my friend Laurie got pissed at her boyfriend (he’d actually just broken…

Last night was wonderful. We played the Victoria Station Cafe, which, if we’d been going with our usual strategies, we’d probably never have discovered. But we were taking a “long-cut” through Connecticut last time we were up here, and happened to go into the Cafe seeking food, and happened to fall in Love with the…

Thank God for cartoons. Well… with the cartoons I’m talking about, it’s probably really not God’s doing. Most of Adult Swim is probably sent up by some minion of evil, but I feel strong… I can resist… and it just feels SO good. Gigantic mushrooms in front of my mom’s house. (Flaming boot provided for…

Heather and Jon and a small beestie at the Full Moon Saloon in Baltimore, MD. We played a gig there on Wednesday night at the invitation of the Revelevens at the behest of John. And the night wears on, watching the progress bar in Dreamweaver competing with the sci-fi pulp of Demolition Man. Poor Sylvestor…

I appear before you, a very, very frustrated puppy. The crack in my Seagull. 4.5 inches worth of crack. The street value of that line… Angered at the eternal damnation that is my advanced and spectacular laptop, I feel strongly that I shall never purchase ANYTHING more complex than perhaps a … what can I…

Joe Isaacs at his Music that Matters showcase at Columbia Lake Front. A new fan from College Perk, Shannon… she got a whooole lot of Love from Dylan (the dog). Dylan absolutely made my day. He was Lovely with his floppy floppy tongue and tiny waggy stub tail. We finally got back into the studio…

Ebay’s WORKING!!! I mean, when we first started talking about it, I was pretty sure it would, but then it went up and just sort of sat there for a moment or two. I got a little worried. I thought to myself, “how many people would REALLY be interested in doing this?” But it’s actually…

Tonight we got to play another full-band show. Out under the slowly darkening sky at the Columbia Lake Front for one of Joe Isaacs’ “Music that Matters” showcases. We got to share the stage with Symbiont and Dan Sheer… both of which played in formats that I hadn’t seen before. First off, Symbiont has a new drummer, who proceeded to be…

PLOJ XXXIII was a success, though – as always – very different from what I expected. We had gotten a huge article in the Washington Times which I had semi-hoped would result in a lot of new faces. I did then get a bunch of emails about the article, but I don’t think any of those emails…
