It’s a busy week for weddings. I’m back from Lake Seneca in upstate New York where my friends Kate and Dave got married this weekend. Congratulations! I also got to see my friends Brian and Liz from Austin. This weekend, Matthew and Carrie are getting married. In honor of the pending union, we took the commissioner to see the Orioles and Red Sox play. Mike and I felt so bad that no one was cheering the Orioles in Baltimore that we betrayed our friends and better judgement to root for the O’s. It didn’t really help them and Boston won. It’s an exciting time for baseball, though much less exciting for the Red Sox and Orioles who are already looking forward to some winter vacation. As a Dodgers fan, I’m watching the NL West and that heated last minute scramble. I’m also cheering for the hometown Phils who are in the mix for a potential wild card victory. I’m really cheering for Ryan Howard to break the record of 61 homers in the regular season (discounting those juiced monsters who have tarnished the game). :::scott:::
Month: September 2006
Mara Miller is playing a last minute show tonight, 14 September, at University of Texas Dallas’ student center. It’s free and she’ll be playing solo. Saxon Shore are playing a show in Brooklyn this Saturday. It must be kind of secret because I don’t even know the details. Look around and maybe you can figure it out. But it’s on. Unwed Sailor start their US dates with Appleseed Cast and Murder by Death tonight. They’re off to Europe soonafter. :::scott:::
Willis, Matt, and I went to see Early Day Miners with Windsor for the Derby and Pela in Philadelphia on Friday night. EDM are on tour in support of their new album Offshore which features a huge cast of supporting musicians, including our own Johnathon Ford. The vinyl sounds amazing. I also found out that Charlie Hall has been the drummer for Windsor for the Derby for about a year and a half now. Charlie was the drummer for The Trouble with Sweeney. I’m working on the final layout for The Magic Lantern cdep that is part of the 4 band split 2xLP release. It’s the last bit of business to take care of before this series can be in your hands. :::scott:::
