Rick Boo is totally comfortable with this song. It is not sitting well with him.
No, I haven’t formed an angry heavy-metal band, although this photo might suggest otherwise.
I’m hosting three happy hour events at Teatro Zuccone. Each show features a special guest performer (or member of my angry band).
All three shows are on Wednesdays. They all start at 6 p.m. and will be over by 7 p.m. so you can socialize at the Zeitgeist Arts Cafe afterward and still be home well before bedtime.
Admission is free. Don’t thank me, thank ARAC.
The first show will be Feb. 10 and will feature musician Rachael Kilgour. The Feb. 17 show will feature actress Christa Schulz and the Feb. 24 show will feature poet Ryan Vine.
Did I mention I have a book now? It’s called The Spowl Ribbon. You can purchase it at any of my various performances, or rip me off and read the PDF for free.
My name is Paul Lundgren; I’m here for your amusement.
