We send out a $2 off regular admission card ahead of time, that's true. We're trying to get that "record show mania" listing corrected.

James: the Brooklyn spot is a ten-minute (max) walk from our place, so it's doubly too bad for us. That said, my ninja training is coming along nicely.

My fave Geraldine moment. She's a receptionist at a doctor's office. The doctor says, "Miss Geraldine, you're disgruntling the patients.
"Doctor," she says, "I am not here to gruntle them."

2006 was fab. Espers at the time made me go get out my scratchy LPs of earlier frolkyfreeky sorts. ISB, Tim Buckley, Pearls Before Swine, the sort.

I have a great story about Espers, involving a very drunk and much younger josh in the uk explaining why I had to leave their show before it finished, them spotting me months later at another show and recalling the story, then referencing it on their second album!
