Hogfather Who Art in Discworld

I lost my Mets cap again. This is getting ridiculous. Why can’t I keep track of it? I don’t like wearing it indoors so when I go grocery shopping I put it in my cart. I should put it in my bag, but I thought that even I’m not enough of an idiot to leave […]

Where is Ralph Kramden When You Need Him?

Yesterday’s excitement was going to PT and then shopping at Aldi. I’m a wild one. I had an unfortunate transit encounter. Getting to and from Aldi is easy. It’s one bus and I have a choice of buses. The Bx1 is best as it stops closest to my house, that’s important when I come home […]

You Probably Haven’t Heard II

Back in June I started something that was supposed to become a regular feature, You Probably Haven’t Heard. It’s a list of musicians that have not reached their potential audience. Anyone playing large venues or well known to My Gentle Readers, is excluded. I’m trying to expose you to musicians that are new to you that you will enjoy. I am not expecting anyone to love all my recommendations but every reader should find new acts to love.

I Got You Baebe

I have lots of ground to cover, I haven’t written in days. I am going to cover the ground in reverse chronological order. On Thursday Dan told me that he had tickets to see the Mediaeval Baebes. I was amazed he had even heard of them. I was amazed that I didn’t know they were […]

On My Radar

Last night was a first, I co-hosted John Platt’s On Your Radar. I feel terrible that it was because John had a stroke but I did enjoy the challenge. I’d love to host another show. Richard Cuccaro and I had a voice conference with John to prepare us. We divided the hosting duties between us. […]

Call of the Conference

Sorry I didn’t write yesterday. I did not get nearly enough sleep at night so slept late in the day. I didn’t get enough sleep last night either but I can’t miss two days in a row. This is why a kind and benevolent universe evolved caffeine. I hate to have to point this out […]

Go Hudson West Young Man

This is going to be tough, I have two days to write about and about half a night’s sleep. I need my second cup of coffee to start this. I’ll be right back. A cup of coffee in my belly and another in my hand; I’m ready to face the world. Blessed be Coffea arabica […]
