The Unimpressive Last Word Vomit – Top 5 Music Influences of ALL TIME – THANKS FOR PLAYING…!!!
Two really weird things happened last night: I cooked in my house instead of going out to eat. I did some shitty linguini with ground beef, mushrooms, and… Ragu. But hey… I don’t get to choose a lot of good ingredients from my vicinity… I didn’t go out to Nelson or to drink in general.…

Talking Nerdy Music with Bobby at Mamut – Photo Gig Today with Chad – The End of the Blogging Year is Near
I saw Bobby again yesterday. We talked about music and other nerdy things. It reminded me how disconnected I’ve been from the scene. Luis. The guy from Los Yepa Yepa walked by.
