Wise Madness
On Tuesday night I saw Sunny War at a WFUV marquee show at the City Winery Loft. Sorry, I’ve fallen way behind in my blogging again. I’ve fallen behind in my life. Today I have to write this and create next week’s Gord’s Gold from scratch. Usually by Saturday all I have to do is […]
Last night I saw Tracy Grammer and Jim Henry give an amazing concert. Shame on me for waiting until 9:46 PM the next day to write about it. I have an excuse to not write it in the morning but that’s it. They played at the Troubadour Acoustic Concert Series in Deep Dark New Jersey, […]
I’m not dead. I’ve just hit a dead spot in writing. I have to get myself back in the writing habit. I did things the last two days, that helps. My friends Mark and Beth opened a restaurant/music venue, The Porch, in Harlem. Mark and Beth have a canonical order. I never know how that […]
There’s an evil force at work slowing down my posting. I started writing this yesterday morning. I got interrupted and didn’t even save what I had. I then forgot to get back to it. I got ready to start writing this morning, my phone rang, and I took a meeting with Deni. Notice the self-important, […]
I have old business I forgot to write about. First, I got my stimulus direct deposit! Not only that but I got a personal letter from some guy whose handwriting was illegible but was ostensibly Donald Trump. He is jealous because four years ago I wrote about my daily emails from my close personal friends, […]
Yesterday was Christmas, I got a delivery from Peapod. The texted me the night before and narrowed the delivery window to two hours. I got a text when it was on the way. I got a text when he got to the building. All done great. He came to my door, rang the bell, and […]
I’m remarkably busy for someone for the most part staying at home. Social Distancing Streaming Concerts is taking up a lot of my time. It’s taking off wonderfully. I have to work on scheduling the staff so that it’s always someone’s job to reply to people and post shows. I wrote that last sentence half […]
Welcome to a rare early afternoon edition of Wise Madness. My soundtrack is WFUV‘s Sunday Supper hosted by John Platt. At least when I start. It was a long day and it might take more than the show’s remaining 45 minutes for me finish. It was long because I went on four county, two state, […]
Dateline BoltBus: I’m on the bus back to New York. We are still in South Station. The data plan is so limited I’m going to just use it to post his. I’ll use my phone for everything else. Once again it was pointed out that I forgot something very important in my last entry, our […]
It’s tough being a liberal. Our moral center is that everyone has inherent worth, that everyone has the ability to improve, that that there is no us against them, that everyone is part of us. What makes it tough is that we have to argue against the tribalists without becoming tribalists. The temptation is so […]
