Check out my predictions for the marathon along with Besser and D.C. Pierson, and a bunch of other people's thoughts on some shows to see, and tips for staying alive... I mean comfortable in  this post at the Apiary.  

Kenny Comes To UCB!

Hello faithful readers...

Kenny Mayne is coming to UCB finally. He'll be there this Wednesday @ 9:30 pm. It's $5 par usual and he'll be opening for the show Hot Lather and I Eat Pandas. All of those shows are fabulous. So why wouldn't you come to this? Kenny will be reading from his new book: An Incomplete And Inaccurate History Of Sport.

I guess that's it. Kenny, I have successfully plugged your show. Exciting, right?

This American Life(Live!)

We went to see This American Life Live at Lincoln Center on Monday. Sooo good. They showed clips of the upcoming tv show. And IE was in one and got a huge reaction from the crowd. Also, Mates of State was the musical guest and they were great. I did not realize that they were just two people and a husband and wife team. But those two facts are true people. That's big sound from two people. And I hate to say it, but both sides are up to the task as opposed to Meg White who let's face it--she's just along for the ride.

Here's some vids from the upcoming show!(check out IE snippet 12 seconds in)



This one below is fascinating... it's about this kid named Joe who doesn't believe in love. So much so he doesn't tell his parents he loves them. He also talks about a dream he had where he did fall in love with a girl but their relationship is based mostly on fighting monsters.
