Crafty Bastards in SS

This year, there is a Crafty Bastards event in Silver Spring (in addition to the one that is in Adams Morgan). They're gonna have live music too... hopefully we'll be able to make it.

Root Boy Slim and Wikipedia

I stumbled upon Root Boy Slim's wikipedia entry and found it sorta interesting. I never really liked his stuff that they used to play on the old 'HFS, but I came on his entry in the usual roundabout web route. Started at 30 Days of Night (vampire movie I watched tonight -- pretty good!). That movie was based on a graphic novel written by Steve Niles, who played bass for Gray Matter. From there I found my way to an entry for Count Gore De Vol (!?), then an entry for the Bayou, which led to Root Boy. And there you have it. Sometimes these rabbit holes are useful.
