So the bottle is hosting 2 benefits. One for Jay Robins this saturday and one for Tom Curtis . If you cant make it out on tues you can easily drop a donation and/or by some raffle tickets at the bottle any night until then. It really warms my heart to see a place like the bottle and the music community in chicago in general coming and helping those in trouble anyway they can.
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Politics :: City loses voters’ vital information
Good article to read, and found in the suntimes no less (the better of the 2 papers in my opinion). There is a mention of the following web site re4m.org where you can request more information. That 43rd Alderman candidate sounds like someone really ontop of internet and e-voting security.
No not Adored (i wish), but actually being hit by a car door while riding on my bike. I dont get angry often, so it was weird to just rip into this lady for about 10 mintes. I dropped the F-bomb quite a bit, I felt it was necessary and justifiable. Had I been going faster, or had she opened it infront of me instead of into me, I could have gone flying into traffic and not only really hurt myself but also been hit by other traffic. She said “I didnt look” WTF!? I was right infront of her door as she opened it! She promised not to leave her house all weekend, becuase she was all shook up. That was not what I intended by bitching her out, I wanted her to be more careful in the future and I wanted to give myself time to check over everything on me and my bike to see if I was ok or needed to get her info. Now I really should have gotten her info and maybe even filled a police report. Even though I think only sprained my wriste and elbows, I am not a doctor nor do I own an x-ray machine, but the fact that I could make a fist, move my arms and legs in full degree and know my name and address I guess I am ok.
With the rest of this weekend being nice and low key I spent time fixing up the wordpress installs. For one thing .htaccess wasnt working right before but is now, so I can affectivly block spam bots from kirsties blog. I got unlazy enough to install favicons for each page (mine, hers, and the home page).
I’ve spent most of today loading a bunch of cd’s on my itunes. Things like Public Enemy, Poole, Phil Ochs, Light FM, Go-Betweens and Nick Cave. I still have almost 30gigs free on my ipod! WOW.
98 – 9 = 91 were @ a club 91 * 3 = 273 (figure on average 3 bands per night)And according to the database about 140 records from 2006 were worth the space they take in our apartment.Pfork = 26 bands (that I saw, I couldnt catch everything)
Intonation = 20 bands (I think)
Hideout /T&G = 32
Wickpark = 15 (rough estimate again)
Total = 366 bands (approx)
(….but who’s counting. Not me the math geek)
