   Also, going on now through October is the “Forests in Focus” photo contest. It’s open to all ages with prizes and publicity.

   Is that like the Blue Ridge Rangers, or the Lone Rangers? Must be a part of baby boomer’s collective psyche. Maybe we could get the Blue RIdge Rangers to open, or just settle out for Leonard Cohen. Now that’d be a show I’d not miss.

   “Everclear, Sugar Ray, Gin Blossoms, Lit and Marcy Playground.”

   It’s gonna be like Morgan Park setting up a hobo camp on Bayfront.

   Not to disparage your financial status, Herzog, because I don’t know what it is, but I’ll tell you the last time Leonard Cohen played in Minnesota the tickets were $175 on the low end and $250 on the high end, so it might be a show you’d choose to miss. I know I chose to miss it.

   Zinema’s website lists “The Artist” opening this weekend! This is the film that won Best Picture this year at the Academy Awards.

   Damn, that guy sold out.
   You guessed correctly Paul, my love knows boundaries. Okay, well, Mark Lanegan will do in a pinch, in fact, I prefer him over Cohen or Waits anyway. And I’m not telling you guys where I’m going to go see his show in a month for fifteen bucks! Probably won’t even sell out, tickets wise. I think he’d come here with enough goading, though a visit could propel him back into his heroin use, so maybe not.

   I gotta work harder on becoming the next poet laureate, I can write poems about naughty deeds done dirt cheap at the Chelsea Hotel.

    We’re doing the Steve Martin thing in August. Cheap seats were 38 bucks … or about what I used to pay to see a (big) show 20 years ago.
