Last Sunday, I spent some time talking with the bartender at Back Alley Social about promoting the Sunday night thing.  After some discussion, we decided to call it TGIS (Thank Goodness It’s Sunday)!  Sunday is the new Friday, after all, especially for the Sunday night crowd at this spot which is made up mostly of service industry folks grabbing a couple of quick drinks on their way home from work.

DJ Handsome Cam and I have been granted a way generous drink special and permission to promote the night in any manner we see fit.  I’ll be back in the booth night after tomorrow, we’ll take a week off, and then we’ll be back weekly. 

So what started as, “Hmm, I’d kind of like to play out once a month or so” has turned into a weekly gig for me.  Nice.  More news as it breaks!

"Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really.

"How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty.

And yet it all seems limitless..."

- Paul Bowles
