OK, here’s the deal.

Duende has a gig on April 25 in Richmond, VA.  I’ll be doing a workshop in the afternoon, we’re performing at the slam that night, a Saturday.

I’d love to find us a gig for Friday night, somewhere very roughly halfway between Worcester and Richmond, so we don’t have to do the marathon drive with equipment from here to there at a godawful hour of the AM for one show.  It would be good to maximize earnings against expense, y’know?

Anyone got any thoughts or contacts in the general area of South Jersey, Delaware, Philly, etc., for a Friday night gig?  It would be most appreciated.  Even NYC would be OK as an outside possibility…anything to cut a long drive down a bit.

Thanks!

Thank God nothing like that happens here, right?  Only in those benighted countries overseas…and in Florida…

Teacher accused of wizardry let go from job.  I remembered seeing the story when it came out and looked it up.

I especially love the last line of the story…"Wizardry was only one of the reasons he was let go."  There was that pesky rumor about necromancy, too.  I bet he was also a terrorist…maybe even one of those homosexuals.

I know, I know — old news, right?  I mean, it was back in May…we’re much more enlightened now.
