As happens in everyone’s life, a party invite showed up in my inbox a few days before the party. Normally, such things are no great concern. This invitation, however, was for a friend’s house warming party. Considering the group that would be there, alcohol selection had to be constrained. It was a house warming, not a moving out party.

Blah blah blah. Busy busy busy. No time for chilling… or sleeping… or, well, life.

No change; constant consistency. Head spinning. Who’s gonna catch my head when it flies off? (continue reading…)

This column went strong each week from July until early November with advice in how bands could better their position, stature, caste, well-being, adjective needed, and adjective required. Then, as if a pair of valves turned the themes left the realm of music and danced around the realms of economics loosely talking about bands and now nihilism. Why the change? (continue reading…)
