Once screening / San Francisco, CA / 17 months ago
Last night we went to the Roxie to see a screening of the new movie Once starring Glen Hansard from The Frames. The movie was both funny and serious and overall a great show. I certainly recommend going to watch the film should your local theater be showing it. After the screening, there was a Q+A with the director as well as Glen and Marketa followed by a performance of several songs from the movie. For Frames fans or those familiar with The Swell Season album, you will surely recognize the music.
This weekend is the Bay to Breakers race here in SF and I plan to take my usual curb-side post for shooting photos again this year.

What can I say, it's been a busy couple of weeks. After the Sissyfoot season opener weekend we have been either super busy or hiding out at the country house (in-laws) relaxing. We've had surprisingly decent weather and the Warriors are still hanging on, both good things. This week was somewhat exciting in a very nerdy way as we had a meeting down at Moffett field with NASA. The place is more or less what you would expect, giant wind tunnels and all.
Today I am heading over to Oakland to meet with Zach and the kids from Rogue Wave to get a taste of the new album before they head to Nashville for mixing and to talk about the website a bit.
As you know, Moustache May is in full swing and the official party has now been announced for May 31 in Nashville. This week I booked a whirlwind trip for work with a little bit of play as I head to Chicago for a meeting with our friends at SkinnyCorp and to see a Cubs game with my little sister. Then I go from Chicago to Nashville for 27 hours to see some old friends and attend the MM party. After that I head to NY to catch up with Toke, take care of some business and attend a few little meetings. When that's finished I will fly back home to SF via JetBlue, which now has a direct route into SF from NY instead of Oakland.
That's the "blah blah blah" for now, I'll try to not make the pointless posts so few and far between. One last thing, if you are looking for a nice notepad application for OS X, give xPad a try, I started using it last week and don't know how I have gotten by without it.

This weekend was relatively quiet with the exception of Saturday's Sissyfoot season opener in the park. These games tend to get a bit out of control with drinking in the sun, but the post-game announcement of MVP always settles folks down.
In case anyone has forgotten, Moustache May is underway.
