Hey! I’m alive again. If you had reached out in the last 2 weeks and I didn’t get back to you I’m sorry! Thanks to everyone who came to the launch party last month, and especially to everyone who played and helped out.
Temporary State (@temporarystateuni ) starts its workshops this fall and will be making our learning materials live later this summer. If you would like to get involved please reach out to any of us.
If any of you know me it’s probably from some sort of show, and it feels great to be able to take all the experience I’ve accumulated over the years and give it back. Go to our website and sign-up for a recurring donation.

4 - Dirt Buyer, June 29th. ‘Josephine’ is one of my favorite songs.
5 - The week of the show I went delirious, and at some point I had ended up walking around everywhere with this cooler because I put a bunch of important shit in it and it became my briefcase.

Welcome 2 TSU, a new nonprofit organization dedicated to training the next generation of New Yorkers how to throw their own shows in a way that is fun, fair, and safe! We are celebrating our launch with a 15 act festival featuring some of New York's best artists, as well as three previews of our free workshop courses starting this Fall.
All of this is going down Saturday June 29th at Party Connection on Woodward Ave in Ridgewood btwn Gates and Palmetto. Come and stop by anytime from noon to midnight because we will be there all day, and nobody is turned away due to lack of funds! This is the climax of our inaugural fundraising drive lasting the month of June, so instead of selling tickets we are inviting anyone who wants to come on over and pay what you can. Sign-up for a monthly membership too! Mostly, we want to greet our neighbors and show them what we can do together.

The man lifting weights on the trail is named Hugo. He just moved here, and we are supposed to work out sometime soon, but we forgot to exchange phone numbers.
There was a carnival in town, and I finished reading the Sailor Moon manga. This Thursday there is a new screening series in Williamsburg.

This summer I’ve been going Boy Mode, which means never wearing a shirt and having sips on my bike.
Next week I’m doing a series where people introduce and screen their favorite videos online. Please clap.

Take two!!!
This exact show was scheduled last year, but had to be canceled due to the novel coronavirus, so we are trying it AGAIN. Also, I am turning 34, and if you care about me you will come to this show and personally tell me to go fuck myself directly to my face.
Also, this show is pay whatever you want. It’s going to cost at least $1700 to do and pay everyone a small amount of money, so keep that in mind when setting your price. Link to donate in bio.

Hello! I am goofing off and having fun in Sunoco, overflowing with optimism and joy.
This Friday I am doing a show at @barsundown with @honeydewonacid , @blums____ , @zacys.by.iji , and one of my legitimate all-time favorites, @nicholas_krgovich . It’s $10, and if you buy tickets online you can donate more to the touring artists if you’d like. The venue is small so you might want to grab those.
Also, I have updated my blog a lot this week! A track review of @sweetjoeyvermouth on Monday, @lolan on Wednesday, and @thecradlemusic coming up tomorrow. Tuesday I released an audio diary from when I did sound for @slicslicslic , and today there are recommendations by @dantesudilovsky .
All of these things you can find through the link in my bio or going to one of my many domains.
