waterloo date this saturday...

By Robbie on October 6, 2010

has been cancelled by the promoter, so please don't drive 250 miles to come to it! (As I was planning to do.)

The bad news is I'm laid up in bed with what I hope isn't but is acting like the early phase of the flu that had Mrs. Fulks out of commission for 5 days last week. The good news is that I have a volume of Amy Hempel stories by the bed, and these read even better in sickness than in health.

I am working on an apothegm, something like: If you want a lot of mail, attack Ryan Adams, and if you don't, attack God. For the few who did respond my post on the argument from beauty/design, though, thanks, and more on that later.

Our end-of-the-year show date has just been inked; it's on Wednesday December 29 at Fitzgerald's in Berwyn, Illinois. As always, music, comedy, musical comedy, politics, a contest or two, and The Rap of The Dead. If I live that long.

    Perhaps your more ungodly readers were fearing that you might be slouching towards believerdom. (I don't, of course. That would be too sad to contemplate.)

    Was really looking forward to seeing you in Waterloo tomorrow. (I let KUNI know that too!)It's been 8 years since I've been able to catch your show. Damn. Hope you feel better- and that when you do, you make it back to the middle of Iowa.
