I haven’t posted in about a month and now I think it’s hard to get back into it. As Jim Gaffigan says in his new routine, “You ever have a friend who you go so long without calling that you decide to end the friendship?” But it’s nothing like that with this blog, I just haven’t been on top of it lately.
So today I’m posting about the things that I have been up to, and maybe a few things that are upcoming.
*The July 3 show at the Sidebar turned out to be the best show of the 4 that I have played in the last 2 months (lot of numbers, I know.) There were lots of people there, and many of the more rabid new fans stood right up front, which was admittedly a little disturbing. I was a somewhat nervous when I realized that I would be unable to play through my second keyboard due to technical difficulties, and I had to reorganize my set. But 8 years of keyboardin’ means I have a lot of songs in the tank.
*Weird Al, July 11, Pier 6 in Baltimore. Great, once again.
*Jim Gaffigan, July 18, Landmark Theater in Richmond, VA. Hot Pockets! The Sexy Tour. He is a funny man.
*July 19. Visited the Museum of the Confederacy and the Confederate White House in Richmond. Not as disturbing as you might think. I’m a big history fan, and the White House is an absolute must see if you are another history fan.
*Saw The Dark Knight. Stop screwing around and go see this freakin’ movie!
I’m getting back to writing some more. I plan to come out with the next Davezine (#14) this fall, the issue about Bad Roommates. I decided that the format to my zine will change a little. After 3 years of short stories (a novella, even) I think I want to go back to a shorter form that may be more inviting to new readers. This one should also have some contributors.
We’ll see about the fall schedule of performances. I will of course post any new shows in this space.
That is all for now. Thanks for reading my blog today!
Davey G.
