Virgopalooza this Friday!


Join Sister Sigh, Joe Sanchez, and myself at Kelly's Olympian on Friday 9/4 for a joint birthday celebration! Doors 7:30pm, Music at 8! $10 in advance or $15 at the door.

Dear Friend,

I celebrated my solar return last Monday, after erroneously commenting on KBOO's Live on Q with Cody Riker the earlier Saturday, that I am four years younger than Fiona Apple. I am, in fact, five years younger than Fiona Apple, who is also notably a Virgo, and celebrates her solar return on the 13th. So I guess in the mostly true story I tell about how she was the mesmerising if waifish opening act of the first big concert I attended unaccompanied, she was actually 20. I know I was 15 at the time, because a lightbulb went off in my head when she introduced "Never is A Promise" as a song that she wrote when she was 15.

At any rate, I will be celebrating more this year with fellow Virgos Cody Riker (of Sister Sigh, 9/6) and Joe Sanchez (of Easyfolk Media, 9/3) on Friday at Kelly's Olympian. We hope you can join us! I'll be baking up some red velvet cake balls, but I'm only doing one batch, so I can't attest to how long they'll last. According to several sources, they're "legendary." They are, however, not VGF, so consume at your own risk.

If it's not your thing, I will also have some shiny new stickers! They're a little... uh, cheeky.

If you can't make it out to Virgopalooza on Friday, save the date! I'll be playing at the Sticky Wicket on 9/11 at 8pm for the St. Johns Music Festival! This event is free to attend and run by a volunteer staff, but could still use your financial support.

Be well, and hope to see you soon!

Dear Friend, I had been agonizing about sending this particular issue, mostly due to some personal struggles I feel are unwise to detail in a parasocial setting, but then NATIONAL TREASURE DOLLY PARTON DIED. I have very little to add to the outpouring of grief and love splashing the internet at the moment. I would hardly call myself a fan, though I respected her. "9 to 5" is the second song on my "Gotta Get Up" morning playlist. Every interview I'd ever seen or read points to her being a...

This month, I'm at Atlantis Lounge with Colleen Johnson 8/14 from 4-6pm, Havalina with Mitch Whitaker and Karyn Ann on 8/26 starting at 5, and Covert Café with Rocky Seahorse on 8/28 from 5:30 to 7! Dear Friend, It's August. And you know what? I'd really love to play some tunes for you. There are a few places you can find me this my birthday month, if you're game! All of these shows are pay-what-you will. Coming up soonest in a week is the happy hour set with Colleen Johnson! She is a queer...
