As January slips away, it's time to get really, really serious about this blog.
Meh. Forget that.
I successfully escaped the state of Oregon for the holidays, which was not easy. Portland has had the worst winter in 40 years, and for 3 days folks had been camped out at the airport. Somehow it didn't snow on the day I had scheduled my trip, though the usual hour and a half bus ride became four and a half instead. I barely made my first flight, then even more barely made my connection in Seattle. I got to pass some poor standby fool who they had given my seat to. Happy Holidays, dude.
So I was able to see my family and friends and all, and by the time I came back things had mellowed weather-wise.
Senior Supermonster made a field trip to Eugene to see my heroes, the Meat Puppets earlier this month, and that was such a killer show.....
The zombie band it racking up the shows for the near future, starting with Valentine's Day at Squirrel's Tavern, followed by St. Pat's at Cloud 9. We dig them saints. They are dead, after all.
I'm also looking forward to March, when I get to see my good friends Scout and Navigator as Scout takes the stage in Seattle for 4 nights in a row with The Bad Plus. This will be epic. Navigator and I will also be checking out a live performance of Cinematic Titanic while they are in town as well, which will engender flashbacks to when we went to see Joel H do standup in The Cities way, way back on Halloween 1988.
So lots of things boiling right now. Sr.SM is still getting together to goof off, and perhaps we'll play a show or two someday. We'll see. I've sent out the tendrills.
Bring on the next month!
