I added a few more releases to the online store, including the two new releases from our friends at Asthmatic Kitty – Bunky and Half-Handed Cloud – as well as the new Early Day Miners which I’d forgotten to add a few weeks ago. Order away. :::scott:::

I’m getting ready to leave San Francisco. I had breakfast super early with John of Half-Handed Cloud fame and it was a lot of fun. His releases have been on Asthmatic Kitty/Sounds Familyre and the Canadian IN Transit label. Last night, I met with Adam, the manager of The Trouble with Sweeney, before the Giants game.

C’est la vie. Later that night, got to see Douglas Witmer’s incredible art opening. If you are in Philadelphia, be sure to stop by the Peng gallery and check out his work.

We left right before the Famile to catch Hayden at the Fire in Philadelphia. Hayden delivered the goods, an extremely long 1h 45m set of new songs and all of the old favorites. Definitely worth the effort to go. Denison is back in Philadelphia finishing the extra parts for his Philadelphia Songs…Continue reading
