I saw it first-hand just a couple weeks ago. What’s worse is that they all, including the artist, stayed but had their backs turned at the bar to the guy that travelled across the country to go last. Then had the gall to say “nice job” and pretend to have heard him. It was ludicrous and insulting, first to the performance and then the performer’s intelligence.

Courtesy, folks. Show it.

I’m sorry I missed this now, it really sounds to me more like the old days with the all day events as they used to have at the EBA on Lark Street.

Then it got to be a bit weird when people would thank me for linking to them, which wasn’t the point, and then others would get even weirder because I didn’t link to theirs. Spoiler alert: local bloggers and tweeters are weirdos.

Especially knowing that a robot drew it. Quick question — whatever happened to that Friday Round-up thing you used to do?
