Yesterday I finally had the time to set up my new computer, or at least to start setting up my computer. I have all my music in the cloud and even though I can see the files and even play them directly from Windows Explorer I can’t play them on my music players. When I […]

Lucinda Hamilton
I’ve been busy and that means I have a lot to write about and little time to write. Since the last time I wrote I have volunteered at WFUV, Walked 10.6 miles on 13.76 miles, been a good citizen, went to therapy, saw Lucinda Williams, saw Hamilton and ate brunch with Emily and the girls. […]
I didn’t write today but as I can’t write tomorrow I should try and write something now. Let’s see how this goes. It will be short and personal. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I’m not in a good place mentally right now. I am depressed. I’m don’t want to get out of bed […]
Witness for the Prosecution
Last night I went to a training session to be an Elizabeth Warren volunteer. You’ll be hearing a lot more about Liz on Wise Madness and my Facebook and Instagram accounts. Notice that she’s now Liz; she’s gone straight from a last name to a nickname. I’m more comfortable supporting Liz than Warren especially as […]
Last night I went to the third annual Hudson West Folk Festival. That’s my excuse for not writing yesterday, I’m the head of the merch volunteers, well duh, so I wanted to get there early. Turns out I couldn’t do much merch stuff for the first two hours but helped with set up or perhaps […]
Last night I had a musical doubleheader. Months ago Emily Mure announced the date for her EP release, September 12. Then Joe Iadanza told me the date for his album release, September 12. I thought I had something for that date but wasn’t sure what. Then I saw it was Emily’s EP release and was […]
Yesterday was the second Tuesday of the month and it’s not August. Raise your hand if you know what that means I did last night? I always see the same hands. If you were there you aren’t allowed to answer. You there in the back, what did I do? “You went to John Platt’s On […]
I gave myself three homework assignments yesterday, take a walk, record an edition of Gord’s Gold for Folk Music Notebook and read an honest-to-god book printed on honest-to-god paper. I didn’t take the walk, the weather was bad, but I did the other two. The artist I covered was Rod Picott. He has a new […]
I have so much catching up to do that I feel intimidated about starting to blog. If I don’t I’ll fall further behind and be even more intimidated. At least I’m recognizing that and writing. Now if I could only do that about important things. Sorry for the short shrift I’m going to have to […]
I seriously considered not writing today but then I thought about My Gentle Readers and decided that I can’t disappoint you. I have an idiot story, I’m just not sure who the idiot is. I just double checked. I am not the idiot. It was somebody at the New York Times. I read this article, […]
