Wise MadnessIt’s time to move on to Saturday night at Falcon Ridge. Sorry that this has taken me so long. Because of the rain the entire Saturday night set was moved later. I left after Tony Trischka’s set. On the way back to camp I ran into Allison. I knew that her camp, Stupid Americans was […]
Enough putting off writing. River has shamed me by writing their Falcon Ridge blog, This is My Home. I am going to put off writing my entry about Falcon Ridge as I did something worth writing about last night. I went to see Nora Brown, Sarah Kate Morgan, and John Haywood at Café Wha?. How […]
I am going to try and blog for the first time in months. Yesterday was my birthday, now that I am older and more mature, I might be up for it. I’m not going to be overly ambitious. I’ll stick to the highlights surrounding my birthday. First off, I care about my birthday, This is […]
Good evening America and all the ships at sea. This weekend was a Gordon Special, all about me being me. On Saturday I wrote the script for this week’s Gord’s Gold. That’s not the special part. The evening was special, Carolann Solebello, Tina Vero, and Dave Murphy played the PostCrypt Coffeehouse, in the bowels of […]
I am burning the candle at both ends; let’s see how long I can keep this up. Last night, Dan and I went to see the incredible Kaia Kater at Cafe Wha in Greenwich Village. Before I got to the show I taught a full day of school, prepared the Facebook Event for On Your […]
Spring break is wearing my blogging out. I do things worth writing about almost every day. Yesterday’s adventure was going to Amy’s house, aka The House of Love to see the first New York performance of The Shabbys. The Shabbys are (is?) Eamon O’Leary, Elise Leavy, and Stephanie Coleman. I have seen each of them […]
Captain’s log supplemental. Yesterday I wrote about seeing Kaia Kater. I planned it out and then forgot to include my favorite thought about her. As I was listening I tried to analyze how her voice felt. You read that right, not sounded but felt. I often see instrumental music moving through or filling space. I’m […]
My streak of exceptional music continued last night; I saw Kaia Kater at Common Ground Coffeehouse in Dobbs Ferry. My official position there is “Cute Merch Guy;” make sure to not forget the “Cute.” Thanks to another volunteer, Elana, this is an easy place for me to get to; I take the MetroNorth from the […]
Yesterday I went on a musical extra-inning double-header. In the afternoon I saw Lohengrin with Carey, Barbara, and Charles. Do all of my Gentle Readers know that I love opera and especially love Wagner? It has not been an active part of my life for a while but my love for it never goes on […]
I’m on a run of great music, last night it was Aoife O’Donovan, Bruce Springsteen, and Hawktail. That Springsteen guy wasn’t there but he must be fairly good as Aoife did a cover version of his album Nebraska. The songwriting was good. I think he might have a future. It’s so nice of Aoife to […]
