Upcoming Shows

I started to type “Indianapolisians” just to be silly, but then I realized I don’t actually know what one calls a person from Indianapolis. Naptowner? Indianapolite?

Those of you who live in Indianapolis:

Go see Canasta at Radio Radio on Saturday, December 9! They go on at 9:30pm and will only make your wallet $6 lighter. Where else you gonna hear great pop music for the price of a triple venti no-whip no-fat low-foam latte, hmm?

Chicagoans (right?):

Go see ESW at Silvie’s on Thursday, December 21! I will be there with bells on, and you should be, too. (I keep threatening this, and I may actually tie jingle bells to my shoes).

current book: Technically still Moby-Dick, even though I’ve hardly picked it up in a week. It’s kind of just too much after a 12-hour work day, you know? But I stumbled across this website the other day and I think it’s frankly genius. I am now on page 174 out of 625 (which doesn’t include the diagrams at the end of the book), which makes me…only 28% complete? God, that’s depressing. Maybe not so genius after all. And how is his book 100 pages shorter?

current music: I don’t even remember what I listened to today. That’s the kind of brain fog I’m in.
