9/14: Still Sleep Deprived

I'm back from 17 hour work days at Bumbershoot! I have some bad news though. I had to cancel my upcoming benefit show at the Crocodile because too many bands had conflicts with political benefits they were doing this month. I'm trying to put together some other event so watch out for that. Can you believe the summer is almost over?

Happy Primary Day,

I'm Doing it Again!
Yeah, that's right. I'm walking another 60 miles to show my support for the fight against breast cancer. I will once again be participating in the Breast Cancer 3-Day in San Diego this October. It's an amazing weekend where thousands of men and women get together for three days and walk 60 miles to display our commitment to continue the fight against breast cancer. We take this time to honor lives lost, celebrate survivors, promote breast cancer research, and help bring breast cancer care to those who so desperately need it. You can read a little bit about my experience last year, it's a big reason why I'm doing it again. You can also watch the 3-Day video to help you get a little taste of why we do it. If you would like to support me in this effort please visit my donation page. Net proceeds benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment. Don't worry, your donations won't go towards paying for my flight or lodging, I pay for all that myself.

8/23 Show: I'll Rummage You!

Sorry for the lateness of this week's show. But not only is it late but
it is the last one for a couple weeks while I go off to work at
Bumbershoot. It's my 5 year anniversary there! If you plan on being at
the festival come say hi, I'll be somewhere between the Fun Forest and
the Pacific Science Center with a walkie talkie pressed to my ear.
Hopefully this show will keep you company while I'm away. I'm going to
try to put up a page with links to all my old shows before I go. Let's
hope I can get out of here in one piece.

Happy Three Days Until I Get to Take Time Off,

Save the Date!
As you all know I'm participating in the Breast Cancer 3-Day in a month
and a half. To help me raise money I will be putting on a benefit show
at the Crocodile in Seattle on September 22nd. The bands playing are yet
to be announced and there will also be a silent auction. Expect to see
more updates in coming weeks.

The Breast Cancer 3-Day is an amazing event and you can read a little
bit about my experience last year, it's a big reason why I'm doing it
again. You can also watch the 3-Day video to help you get a little taste
of why we do it. If you would like to support me in this effort please
