I'm a madman these days, preparing for our tour to SXSW next week. I would really love to see you at the Felix Obelix play this Friday, March 13 at the Pinhook at 10pm, with Lemming Malloy and Physics of Meaning. The road is usually pretty lonely, so this might be the best night of the tour ( Read more... )

There is more I can ever say to everyone to thank them for the big Felix Obelix debut. A special big thanks to Betsy for filming tons of it - you can search for it on youtube. Here's a piece of the action, in case you missed it all:

And sometimes, unrelatedly, on the very same day, you have to find some video footage of yourself online so somebody can make a public access video of you, and youtube in all her wisdom and glory, spits out the country band you played oboe in, from 1999-2000.

My brother's friends are all begging me to blog more about the music I listen to. They lie awake at night, trembling, waiting for the next installment of this series. I hear their cries in my mind and am here to help. I am here to stop your trembling, sirs. In no order ( Read more... )

For those far-flung Chapel Hillians among us, you might not be privy to the sad, sad news that the Skylight Exchange is no more. This is the roach-infested sandwich bookstore/record store in the back alleyway on Rosemary street in which I misspent so much of my early-twenties.
