May 2020


  • May 26th, 2020. My eyes are tired.

    Good on you neighbour. That sounded like a more typical pile of beer bottles hitting the recycling pile. I hope that’s a good sign. There may sound like there’s judgement in that tone, but there really isn’t. You’ve got a great back porch, a good batch of friends, a good patch of shade. I envy…

  • May 25th, 2020. Endgame.

    COVID19 is going to end differently for different people and at very different times. On a day when NPR is still touting America’s death toll at “nearing 100,000” (I sort of feel like maybe they should’ve just touted the actual number when it happens, because we’ve been “nearing” for a week now and even that…

How long will…

  • Live at the New Deal. rob Day 2020.

    Live at the New Deal’s Instagram advert… So – this is something I’ve been working on for the past couple of months, but it really went into high gear in the last week to finish it for today’s BandCamp 100%-to-the-artist-day – whenever we play a show and someone’s like “so, which album best reflects what…
