okay hello
it's been a million years
never ever have much time these days for anything
since we last talked, i think,
moved from chicago to dayton (wait not sure how long it's been)
then moved back to cincinnati
lots of music,
couple great new bands,
met a great girl,
we gots a house a real fixer upper.
employment worries were resolved last winter
when i took two part time jobs,
working at music hall (where the symphony etc does their thing)
and at southgate house (a three-music-venue historic mansion, like 650 capacity)
threw out my back super bad last winter, that was fun.
got promoted to the full-time office at southgate house
so i get to meet and deal with bands all the time which is pretty cool
absolute best shows since i've been here:
built to spill (used my bubble machine!)
dan deacon / deerhunter
sunn o)))
bonnie "prince" billy
st. vincent
breeders
jason molina
they're all nice people
