Awesome, Joe. I'm heartbroken I couldn't be there.

HAPPY MARRAIGE JOE!!!

Congrats, Joe and bride!

However, I could get you a record by The Ass Ponys if you really want.

Hey now, that sounds interesting.

And they're from Cincinnati.

LOVE the Ponys! In high school and college, I was overly fond of plastering my walls with as many Ass Ponys posters/flyers as possible. t /dork

ION -- More signs of the apocalypse....

Thanks, Corwood. We were sorry you couldn't make it, too. That's Eliot on my left; his sister, Rose, Katherine's best friend, is on the right (FIL & SIL in the background.) You can now put a face to the message when you trade emails. He looks about six inches taller than I do, but that's just the photo. We're exactly the same height and I have a much bulkier build. Also, it took nearly four months, but I now have an answer to your question about ever updating my blog: yes.

msbelle, thanks, and I apologize. I thought MC was going bring you as her date/guest/sidekick, but when she cancelled a couple weeks before the wedding I completely spaced on asking you directly. We'll be having a party (or maybe a few) to get rid of some of the wine & beer left over from the reception & we'd love to have you there. (I was misinformed about how much was left when the caterers asked me if I wanted to take it home or to return it. They said three or four cases. Turned out to be nine cases of wine/liquor and six cases of beer.)

On a musical note (no pun intended), here's the band who played the wedding. There are a few clips, although the sound quality leaves something to be desired, and there are none from the EP, which is closer to what they played at the wedding - in fact they did a great rendition of "Moonlight Becomes You". I'm sending it to buffistarawk, but it doesn't seem to be going through. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. C'est la marriage.

Also, it took nearly four months, but I now have an answer to your question about ever updating my blog: yes.

File under: good things, those who wait, arrival of

no worries and parties are always good.

woohoo, just bought tix to see Elvis Costello. I was bumming because I usually see him at least once a year when he plays NYC, but thought I would miss out this year, BUT NO. Turns out tix are the perfect birthday gift for my brother.

I'm still a bit bummed that Roky's playing the ACL Fest (his first live show in some 20-odd years) the year after I swore off it for good, and here I am, too stubborn to buy tickets again.
