ten days in nyc- photoblog


travel blog part 2; stuck in Brooklyn


For reasons a little too complicated to fully explain I lost my passport just minutes before my plane to London was supposed to depart. After the initial shock and will shattering realization, I started calling people. Virgin Alantic, my girlfriend, my friend who I am staying with here in Brooklyn and passport offices that are [...]

Benoit Pioulard @ Holocene this Sunday


For those of us not financially (ready/)able to get a Grizzly Bear ticket on time, fear not!! The wonderful Benoit Pioulard has recently moved to Portland (read: like a year ago) and is opening a show at Holocene this Sunday. While his album may not be as hyped or hyper as the new Grizzly [...]

Ponytail @ Holocene 5/10/09


For a ‘holiday’, and a Sunday, I was pretty pleased with the turnout at Ponytail this weekend. Holocene isn’t a hard place to fill, and this was proof that if there’s reason enough, people will make the effort to come out. Ponytail was much more than enough reason. Molly Seigel was in [...]

Heads Up: Ponytail


[Not my photo.]

If you haven’t already seen Molly Siegel on stage singing for Ponytail, you now have unbreakable plans this Sunday.
