Attn NYC and surrounding areas! I’m playing a show in you in one week as part of Deli Mag’s Best of Emerging Artists Festival.  Wednesday, 5/23 at Spike Hill in Brooklyn.  Maybe I’ll play that newer pop punk song that I wrote about moving to Brooklyn. 21+. Only $5. 7PM. I think I’m gonna play a few songs solo, and the rest full band. Or maybe all full band. I haven’t decided yet. Well anywho, you’ll find out when you get there.

You should check out the other bands because they all seem rad, but my set is promptly at 8:20 if you’re trying to figure out if you can make it. Click here to RSVP k? Let me know if you have any qs.  See ya soon. Goodbye

#gpoyw …I work outside on sunny days. My doctor told me I was vitamin D deficient, so.

“Cut it Off” Look Session  recorded in my bedroom a few weeks ago

Look Session # 1  …Recorded some songs a few weeks ago when my friend Andrea was in town, she’s posting a new one up every week. This is that new song I was researching the Samson story for. And that’s my bedroom!

I drank a full pot of coffee today. A full. pot.

• As relayed by my housemate and paraphrased by me
• [buzz buzz]
• Housemate: Hello?
• Guy: Hey, I'm the cable guy. I have to get up to your roof and shut off the cable on the (unoccupied) third floor
• Housemate: Okie doke
• [guy *IN CABLEVISION OUTFIT* goes to the roof and down the fire escape and presumably shuts off cable, then comes back]
• Guy: Okay, did it
• Housemate: K, bye
• [guy leaves]
• 4 Police Officers: [KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK}
• Housemate: um...hello officers
• Officers: Did a guy go up to your roof?
• Housemate: Yeah...He said he was the cable guy?
• Officers: ...Did he leave the building?
• Housemate: I think so?
• Officers: Okay, thanks. Next time you might want to check IDS before letting people in. Haveagooddaybye!
• Housemate: Hmmmm
• [on the phone with the 79th precinct]
• Me: Hey, there was a guy on our roof this morning and we didn't ask the responders what was going on, is there some way to get some info about that?
• Precinct: No.
• Me: You don't have any information about that?
• Precinct: Nope. And if I did, I couldn't tell you.
• Me: So, to your knowledge, should we be concerned ?
• Precinct: Not anymore than usual.
• Me: K thanks
• so, um.....what do you think that was about? At first I thought somebody across the street was being really racist and called the cops just because they saw this guy on the roof...But my housemate brings up the great point that the protocol for cable companies shutting off somebody's cable is probably not to wait until the residents are gone, go onto the roof and break into the apartment via the fire escape...Weird.

So, this is where I sleep now

GPOYW: My friend Emma came into town with a new camera.
