Trip to Idaho

I promised my ex-wife that I’d pay a visit to see the kids in September, but my dentist had plans for all of my money in the entire month of September. I made plans to visit the last weekend of the month, buying the plane tickets shortly after pay day on the 16th. I headed […]

Staple

I took a bit of a nap this afternoon and headed out the door about ten. I arrived in San Francisco at 10:45 and at Staple at 11. Fil Latorre was on the decks when I arrived. I mosied upstairs to see if Patrick was around, which he was. It was him and Gigi and […]


Fray Day 4

Fray Day 4 was incredible. I had such a good time, meeting wonderfully cool people who put things together that are daily reads for me, like Derek, Heather, Tom, The Phil, Isaac, Maggie, Jish, Melissa, and others. I didn’t muster up enough bravery to step in front of the mike and tell any stories that […]


Almost Famous

My company decided to take us all to the movies today. We went to see Almost Famous (2000). If you haven’t seen this wonderful coming-of-age movie about a budding writer for Rolling Stone magazine in 1973, you need to go tonight. Period. This movie is wonderfully acted, wonderfully written, and was quite a surprise. I […]

Staple

Kate, my friend from SpaceBar, asked me if I would be at Staple tonight. Heh. As if that’s a question that requires an answer. Markie (Wicked, SF) on the decks tonight. I arrived to see Fil Latorre on the decks. I went upstairs and spotted my Canadian bitches, Patrick and Gigi, kicking back, so I […]


Olympic Games

I don’t know what it is about the Olympics that just gets me all wound up, but I just had to watch the opening ceremonies and the parade of nations. It was such a spectacular thing to see dozens of thousands of the best in the world, all the entertainment (although quite a bit was […]

Staple

Dan Bell and John Tejada at Staple this week. I hit it pretty early compared with recent weeks and arrived at Staple at about ten. The club was virtually empty when I got there, but I conversed for a while with the Idahoan at the door and Inhuman. Tejada was on the decks making waves. […]


Double Birthdays

Happy Birthday, Steve! Happy Birthday, Heidi! Luckily, I’m only in demand enough to be invited to two parties at the same time. I had told Heidi that I’d go to her birthday party first, so I decided to go to that. Her party was scheduled to happen in a Moroccan restaurant in San Francisco. I […]

Staple

Staple scheduled an all-day party today, starting at 2pm and ending at 2am, with featured headline Glenn Underground of Strictly Jaz Unit (Chicago). After waiting to hear from a friend about whether I was still supposed to pick her up near San Mateo, I decided to go it alone. I arrived at Staple just about […]

Into the Sound

Into the Sound featured Jenö and Tony. I haven’t been to Into the Sound since July 21 (not counting the listen.com/Horizons Unlimited party on August 18), so I figured it was high time for me to go out and do a little dance with that crew. Matthew was on the decks when I got there. […]
