Wise Madness
Sorry I’ve been away so long. It’s been busy at school and I haven’t had time to write there. I’m usually too busy or tired when I get home. Now that I’m back I’m going to write something unpopular. Friends, Facebookers, Countrymen, lend me your eyes. I come to praise Amazon, not to bury it. […]
Yesterday I left you with a cliffhanger; would my attempt at raticide work? It did! But it wasn’t beauty that killed the beast, it was the airplanes. No, it was actually the spring jaws trap that I tried first. Perhaps the poison would have worked given time. The glue traps were useless, it just burst […]
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 have an hour and a half break now. That’s a good reason to write. This morning I proctored an exam; that was depressing even though it wasn’t my class. Out of 13 students only 7 showed up and one never tried to answer anything. All math teachers need to be reminded that this isn’t […]
Saturday Night I saw The Whiskey Charmers at Rockwood Music Hall. This was my first time seeing them since the pandemic started. Needless to say, I was excited. Not only are they one of my favorite bands, but Carrie and Lawrence are friends. It’s always better when the musical appreciation comes before the personal, then […]
Is the tomato a fruit or a vegetable? I’m going to be writing about something important, sensitive, and personal to many of my friends. The reasons to start with tomatoes should make sense by the end. As an obnoxious pedant I like to point out that a tomato is a fruit. According to my neighbors […]
Today I’m finally going to finish writing about seeing Kittel & Co. and Maeve Gilchrist on Saturday night; yes, ancient history. We’ll start with a recap, sorry there’s no “skip recap” option. On Saturday Dan and I went to see Alkemie on the upper East side. That ended around 4:30. The next stop on our […]
On Saturday, Dan and I had a musical doubleheader involving four acts. It’s good to be back to being myself. It started when I heard that Alkemie Medieval Musical Ensemble was playing. I saw them once before and loved them. This is so much up my alley. The problem is that I have no idea […]
We have returned to the Golden Age of Wise Madness; Missing a day is unusual for me and I’m writing about live music; both are exceptionally good for my mental health. I’ll start by writing about Rachael & Vilray. They did a WFUV Marquee member show Tuesday night at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2. I’m […]
