The Road to New Bedford

I spent the weekend at the New Bedford Folk Festival. Saturday started early; Mike picked me up at 6 AM. Sure I did that to work the election and when I volunteer at WFUV, but my body will always object. We talked about stopping at the Dunkin’ Donuts at my house so I didn’t even […]

Hour Band

I’m not dead! I know you figured that was the only thing that could keep me from blogging for so long. I’ve just been busy. Now do I write one long entry or do I split it up. I’ll let you know when I figure that out. Let’s go back into the distant pass, Sunday. […]

This Gemini is a Cancer

Last night I went to Miwa Gemini’s 50th birthday/Album Release concert. This was her first full band show since the plague started. That was worth a trip to Littlefield in Brooklyn to see. This was my third time seeing her and each was a revelation. The first was a porch concert and the second a […]

Blips on the Screen

Why am I starting to blog at 8:56 PM? What the hell was I doing this morning? I didn’t sleep late. I did kill two hours watching Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ms. Marvel. I’m not sure if I can continue to watch Ms. Marvel; it plays more like a Disney Channel teen sitcom, complete with animated […]

A Grain of Sand

Last night I made the trek down to Prospect Lefferts Gardens in Brooklyn to see Jean Rohe at the Owl. Jean is perhaps may favorite musician and The Owl is a hoot. I should just stop right there; you now know everything you need to know about me. I won’t because you don’t know everything […]

A Quest for Great Music

Yesterday did not start off well, my therapist canceled for the second time in a row. As I can get off on an insanity plea for the next week, I suggest you be very nice to me. I am very trusting that people will understand when I’m joking. Fortunately, my other mental health treatment, live […]

Deni-Sue and Jethro

I got one sentence into blogging yesterday and stopped. I have no idea what interfered. Now I have to catch up on two days. Good thing nothing happened on Friday. Something was supposed to happen, the Sunset Singing Circle. It was raining and I kept changing my mind if I was going to go. I […]

From Vienna to the Citi

I’m finally catching up on my blogging. There is no reason I didn’t do this earlier other than lack of energy and my issues initiating action. I’ve had an action packed few days. Well, OK, not that action-packed but enough that my body is aching. On Sunday I went with Fred and his friend Josephine […]

Do I Get Brownie Points for Being Blount?

I was supposed to take a walk and go shopping today, instead I’m blogging and listening to the Met game. Hopefully, you’ll view my loss as your gain. Maybe I’ll get out for a shorter walk later. It’s such a beautiful day. I’m going out tonight to see Alex Wong and Vienna Teng. Yesterday I […]

Janis Ian and the Other Brothers

I’m getting back to my usual life. On Thursday WFUV gave me a pair of tickets to see Janis Ian and Friends at the New York Society for Ethical Culture. Over a space of nine days, I’m seeing four concerts, Alkemie, Lucius, Janis Ian, and tonight Hannah Read. I also saw two Met games. Sadly, […]
