On a night with plenty to do, in a week where a lot went on, Handborn strikes twice at once in two locations, crowd, art, fashion, music on the sidewalk, and as I arrived fresh from dropping in on Queen Bean on way to Jon Valenti party, saw the accordian player who dropped in on us at Art Walk last month, leading a parade, the Fashion Parade, had gone through Concetta, through the sidewalk crowd, down to 12th, flashes going on, I kept hanging back to stay out of pics, but this sort of event, what you like to see in downtown, and adding it to notes on this mythical our category doesn't exist MAMA award, as this show looked like fun, and after leaving The Mundaze set, over seeing Eric playing to a quiet house at Claytons, came back to the energy to see what was in Deva, and back over to Concetta as this one would win last night, called you back in, when earlier so much crowd, I'd had to wait. Important at these shows, hope you spent some money.

I have been a slacker lately because I have been going through some personal issues and I thank you for coming back. Actually, it is pretty cool when I get email from readers asking if I am ok. You all have been so supportive. Thank you!
