Lio ...

... is brilliant, and very very sad today

edit I never noticed this before, but the Lio feed is friends locked ... weird. I do highly recommend joining, it's like Calvin And Hobbes (which is very apt today) combined with the old Chas Addams New Yorker cartoons

That rarest of all things

An Eric local show. I'm playing in my own town. How weird is that?

The folks who run the Ames Progressive newsletter have started hosting acoustic shows in their new office. There is live music there every tuesday and sunday. 8pm every sunday they are having an open mike and every tuesday they are hosting performers who will do a longer set. On Tuesday the 5th I am performing.

There is no charge for any of the shows, but donations are always welcome. The address is 118 Hayward Suite #3. It's a little tricky to find at first. It's in the offices in back and to the left of the Dominoes on Hayward.
