In honor of Christmas Eve Eve, I peppered my show last night with some holiday-esque songs. It was delightful. Although, I decided that next year, if I’m still on the air, I’m going to aim to play nothing but depressing, sad bastard music on the holidays. I’ll be back next week on New Year’s Eve […]

[ It’s been quiet around here lately, thanks to real lives and jobs and all of that, so I figured I’d dig up some half-finished posts of old news and compile them all together for a large post of old news and photos. You may see more posts like these as I continue to edit […]

This is basically the worst week in the world for concerts. And by worst, I mean full of too many choices. I’ll be at the Brandi Carlile show at SPACE on Wednesday, and at DeVotchKa at Lincoln Hall on Saturday. The rest of the week is up in the air. I’ll probably be sobbing under my desk rather than making any real decisions.
