Tour Report
The last leg of our touring for the year has got off to a great start. With the 3rd show being my favorite so far.
Here is a very flattering review of the Seattle show.
PS: This means we’ve played three great shows in a row in Seattle (Neumo’s, Bumbershoot and Showbox), a place I always considered us to be hit or miss. Nice to know we’ve got a place so close to home we can now count on enjoying. Way to go Seattle fans!

RE: Vintage Caper
As far as plots and stories go this one is just plain silly. But then again that’s not what it’s about. If you’re into food, France and French wine this is what might be called an elegant romp and it’s definitely for you.
I’m gonna read The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao next. Just as soon as we’ve had our two-day break from tour.

The Vintage Caper
Our gig last night was magic. If I had gotten more than seven hours of sleep I’d still be reading but I’m too tired to concentrate on one thing for more than a few minutes. Or pages.
This is a whodunnit about a three-million dollar wine heist. I’m in heaven. It also happens to be written by my favorite kind of modern writer: a wit who can keep out of his own way.
Check out this cool, um,”art” installation on the U.S./Canadian border. (Click to enlarge.)

Pirate Latitudes
Apparently this book was discovered as a complete manuscript after Crichton’s death in 2008. I didn’t even know he had died. Well the book is pretty damn fun. It’s got me through four flight delays and one cancellation, three van rides and a seaplane.
One thing though, it’s been a while since I watched Captain Horatio Hornblower but I kept thinking that this was the same story. Or was it Yellowbeard.

One Day Out
Well it looks like this is how we get to Vancouver. God this has been a weird tour….and we’ve been out for exactly one day.

With Pummelings and Daggery
I forgot to stop at Powells so this was kinda the only choice left to me from the PDX news stand. It has the word “pirate” in the title and right below it is the sentence: “Crichton’s ultimate adventure.” Ooh, that sounds great.
Well, seventy pages in I can tell you that it’s pretty goofy. It reads like a book for kids but with pummelings and daggery. This book also seems to have an abundance of wenching. Oh well, at least the swashbuckling is gonna commence any page now…

Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I’m in the South eagerly awaiting the big feast. All the kinfolk are sittin around watching FOX news. Ya know, I had nearly forgotten how to hate, be small or even get petty and mean about other people whom I don’t even know. But now thanks to only fifteen minutes in front of the TV, I have high blood pressure and am ready to torture and/or kill complete strangers.
Wow, I feel so dark and creepy right now, like my insides have been defiled. I need to lay down in a field of daisies.
Cryin’ out loud. Now I know where psychos, rapists, and serial killers go to get jacked up for visiting some evil upon the good and the innocent.
Here is a movie review:
Addams Family Values: It’s not a perfect movie, but on Thanksgiving Day it sure did cure the evil sickness that was put in me by accidentally watching 15 minutes of FOX News.
