In General
I lived in Fayetteville for three and a half years while I got my Masters at the University of Arkansas. And one of those years I even lived on a farm.
Lately
Shellac tonight.
Tortoise is also playing Buffalo at a different venue. My friend Ben and I have discussed seeing both bands. It is realistically possible. The doors for Shellac open at 7:00 PM with only solo cellist Helen Money as an opener. I believe the venue has an 11:00 PM curfew, but at any rate that show will probably be done by 10:30 PM. Tortoise is playing at Soundlab with Fourem as the lone opener. Ben and I are very familiar with how Soundlab operates since he often works the door there and I’m a photographer for them. Their schedule is doors at 9:00 PM, first band around about 10:15 PM, give or take a few minutes, headliner sometime shortly after 11:00 PM. You can see how the math falls into place here. We have also speculated that both bands know the other is playing and being that they are both predominately from Chicago and most likely friends, that Shellac would be done early so they could go catch some of Tortoise’s set. Both clubs are downtown and separated by about a five minute drive.
You’re welcome, Meredith. Things are obviously going to ebb and flow when dealing with grief. You might want to write up some stuff as thoughts come to you and evaluate what you have written after set period of time. Then you can see if you have enough good ideas to merit moving forward with creating a website. You can always save a few stories for the future in case you update a lot and then take a break. This also will give you some semblance of a schedule and regular updates.
For Vert Is Dead, I usually spend a couple of days scanning a month’s worth of images. Then I don’t touch the scanner until the collection gets low, unless I think of something else that I want or somebody makes a request that fits in with the current content.
Vert Is Dead = Marc Johnson.
