talia shoot holding six … that’s six … puppies. i’ll be monitoring this situation in the event we need to contact the spca.

good luck to the hooches as they try to give up all but one of the puppies.

in other news, i’m playing a gig tonight with the great eric schmitt …

… at chelsea’s and am very excited. it’s been a blast learning the tunes, and they sound really good (assuming we don’t forget too many words). fifteen songs in less than a week is – how you say? – a bitch. but i’ve been wanting to have a project like this for a long time, so it’s been well worth it.

here’s young roy in front of a huge tent set up in his living room. living room camping. he says, ‘you wanna come see our tent? it’s huge!’ i say, ‘sure, roy,’ thinking, ‘huge tent, huh, kid? they’re so cute … think everything’s huge.’ but, really, no shit. huge fucking tent.

finally made it to chicago al’s yesterday. al is a t.r.i.p. old school chicago blues man. i got a chicago dog and we started talking and then he hooked me up with an italian beef, dipped, that instantly reminded me of my grandmother and going to chicago as a kid. nice. i asked him what he sells more of, the hot dogs or the beef, and he says, ‘it’s all hot dogs. these people around here don’t fucking know shit.’ a conversation i had to pry myself away from after an hour.

oh, and thanks, sarah, for the tip on the hipstamatic. my iphone now takes pictures that don’t completely suck (and actually look interesting). best $2 i’ve spent in recent memory … well, almost the best.
