October 10th, 2022. AF.
Much of my last couple of weeks has been given over to streaming and running sound for a synagogue in Chevy Chase. Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. A lot of work, but very gratifying. Friday night was given over to an ilyAIMY video shoot. We did great things. Today started off strangely, beautifully calm. I…

October 9th, 2022. More Nups.
Kosi and Matt Holsen! Sunday October 9th, I was honoured to officiate the wedding of my friends Kosi and Matt – transforming them from “merely” Kosi and Matt unto Kosi and Matt Holsen! Nothing had gone as planned, and that figured heavily into my ceremony – and I think that betwixt COVID, the weather, Life,…

October 7th, 2022. Paradise.
Friday, September 30th, 2022 Rowan and I played a Sofar show in Baltimore, MD. Be ever grateful for our strange and beautiful improvised art spaces. Great show! Sunday, October 2nd Kristen and Heather and I all helped Justin, Heather’s little brother, get married! T’was a beautiful day. But you’ve ALWAYS got to dry your sharpie…

October 2nd, 2022. The Maker and the Baker.
Cookbooks for everybody!!! I’ve known Justin for more than half of his Life and he’s gone from being a surprisingly mature teenaged little brother to a spectacularly-talented designer, maker, illustrator BEAST who does great things in ways that we could never have foreseen. Heather’s little brother has grown into a stunning man, and yet my…

September 29th, 2022. Open Air Open Mic.
Buzz Merrick got a shot of ilyAIMY kicking off the last open mic of the season! A great list for Dave Benham’s birthday! Surprise! Last one. Sigh. While it was warm enough, we gathered in Parking Lot D of Ellicott City, MD in the courtyard of the wonderful and wonderfully generous Little Market Cafe (3731 Hamilton St,…

September 23rd, 2022. Thunk. Fall fell.
After Thursday’s open mic I was BEAT and came home and wanted nothing more than to watch this movie… do you know what it is?! It’s been a whirlwind for the past … several days? One of those strange whirlwinds where you’re getting enough sleep and food to function, but not enough to form solid…

September 22nd, 2022. Open Air Open Mic.
Another sparse night. But a beautiful one. The wind whipped up, the weather was crisp. Happy first night of fall my friends! Every Thursday, as long as the weather allows, from 7-9ish we gather in Parking Lot D of Ellicott City, MD in the courtyard of the wonderful and wonderfully generous Little Market Cafe (3731…

September 18th, 2022. Recovering from Ellicott City.
Friday September 16th, Heather and I played what was otherwise a pretty “non” gig – driving to Roland Park in Baltimore, MD for a “music series” that definitely turned out to be a very, very small farmer’s market. We set up (above) and played in a beautiful setting and, still suffering from a dog hangover…

September 15th, 2022. Open Air Open Mic.
Adrian F’s first time out with the bass player from Clyde and Joey Jenkins holding it down at the Open Air Open Mic in Ellicott City. For such a beautiful night I was kinda SHOCKED that we didn’t have a bigger turnout, but a good night was perpetrated. Every Thursday, as long as the weather…

September 13th, 2022. This place has gone to the dogs.
Heather performing at Bethesda Bark in Bethesda, MD. Movie night with dogs? DJ with dogs? What the HELL is a “pup crawl?!?!” Heather is singing at a dog park and I’m disappointed she hasn’t taken the time to think up more dog-oriented phrases. She could’ve had the audience HOWLING. Still, I HERD she did great.…
