Nebulae (Goth Industrial Night at The Space) is under-way. Come on down!
Very cool. The live Podchaost recording from the Podcast Symposium is now in their feed, for your enjoyment. You can hear me laugh way too loud throughout the show, and Marla & I get shout-outs at the end. This was a ton of fun. Let’s do it again.
The Second issue of The Cherry Picker zine is out today! Contains: show run-downs, an overview of the KMUZ Pledge Drive, a review of the new album by Moon of the Wolf, and an interview with Emma Pace Jonas, plus a whole lot more. (Basically: all the views.) I’ll be making deliveries today. If you would like one, let me know now, and I’ll add you to the list.

Making the sauce.

I’m trying to imagine a 59 year old Darby, writing Germs-like songs about 045. It would have been… interesting.
While much of the action takes place on an island technically (it’s in a castle, on an island), it’s almost every other genre but horror. Still fun if you don’t mind a movie that skimps on plot (and length).
Chicken soup, yo.
Damn it feels good to be a gangster.
If making podcasts and finishing up the shopping is “gangster.”
Do you live in Salem? Do you have a bicycle you don’t use? Do you want to work out a deal with me?
You know what to do.
“one of those uniquely bad films that is difficult to dislike.”
I only stand and cover my heart during Ramones songs. Occasionally a Who tune.
The Salem Oregon Podcast Symposium was so much fun. Thank you The Podchaost (Emma Pace Jonas, Dashiell Thompson, Chad Johnson & guests), and Cool Sheets (Karen McFarlane Holman & Brian Hart) for putting on great shows, and Vortex Remover for really kicking out the jams on Mid-Valley Mutations. And, of course, my incredible wife and co-host on The Capital Couple, Marla Rich, for making everything great, even after a robbery. I couldn’t do this without you. See you next time!
Colin Hix, /root_DIR, Cathead, Jonathan Christ, Michelle Pecchia, Kelly Wan-Kenobi, Troy Mercy, Maile Arruda, theXplodingboys, Marshal Serna, Jessica Serna, Viktor Nova, I’m probably forgetting others…

Why can’t these things last longer?
Getting ready to go live with Kiisu Dsalyss on Mid-Valley Mutations, to talk about his band The Secret Light and his career in music over the last 20 years. Tune in to KMUZ.org and listen live, at 10 sharp.
As the nails in summer’s coffin are nailed shut, come on out to support a touring act and a local group, hoping to rock your Wednesday night. Punk Rock Hump Day, at The Fifty!
Funnier now that I have glasses.
I had to make tahini from scratch so I could make baba ganoush from scratch. #DoubleProcessorAction
I’m loving this rain.
I found my new favorite place.

Is there a reunion gig anytime soon, Vicky?
Maybe it’s early, but this just started making me cry. I miss you, Harry.
I should absolutely revisit this article. Angela L. Greene. Wait, We’re Recording, Right? #TheDickiesAreDicks
I hope it sounds good.
This place rules.
Let’s see what happens.
I already miss you, Harry.
The question has come up, and I said as much in the first issue. So: here’s the submissions guidelines / policy. Hopefully I’m being transparent, but let me know if you have any questions. Let’s make something fun!

I’m really impressed. We are now available in 10 different locations here in Salem, and the overall response has been really cool. We’re almost out of our first print run, so pick one up soon if you can. If you would like one, let me know, and I’ll get one to you. Otherwise, here’s a page that has all the places we are available. Let me know if someone has run out, I’ll bring more.

Why does everything look like a metaphor under O45?
I’m not ready for more music deaths. It’s gonna be a Husker Day. Sigh.
Sometimes simple is better.
We’re also available at The Space Concert Club, too. You may have to ask for it at the bar, but it is there. Thanks again, everyone.
In the parlance of John Siracusa, if I needed elective plumbing (non-emergency) in Salem, who should I call?
For those of you who are wanting to pick up a copy of The Cherry Picker out in the wild, here is a list with Google Map Links (when appropriate). I’m very excited that you can pick them up now at Ranch Records – Cds, Lps, Vintage Rock Art, Dvds, The Book Bin – Salem, Beanery, The Governor’s Cup Coffee Roasters, Summer Street Little Library & Jori Zan’s Body Piercing for all carrying The Cherry Picker! That’s an excellent start, if you ask me.
Where would you like to find The Cherry Picker? Let me know what locations in Salem you would like to see it, and I’ll make it happen. Thanks again for supporting, everyone!

Smokeface, rising over Salem to survey the chocking damage done.
And now, the first issue of The Cherry Picker is ready for your enjoyment. Follow this link to join the mailing list, check out our website, and find out how you can enjoy the digital version. Like a DIY Hipster Santa, I’ll be delivering these around Salem today. Would you like one? Let me know, and I’ll send one your way.

While I only just now saw this version, this story might be one of my all time favorite Sci-Fi stories / movies. (The movie linked here was remade as the first episode of the US show, which is where I first saw it.) I think about some element of Max Headroom almost every day, and seeing new elements I’ve never seen before has been so much fun this week. Like some long lost summer from 30 years ago, where all I could do was obsess over this character.
I’ve been writing zines since 1993. This new one is an entertainment / opinion piece with a focus on music and art. Print issues will be available tomorrow. Let me know where you are, and I’ll deliver one. And if print isn’t your bag: Sign up for the mailing list to receive a digital download link as new issues are ready. The first issue comes out TOMORROW. I’m nervous…

Tomorrow I launch my new writing project, born out of the recent break-in. I will start handing out the physical copies tomorrow. You can sign up for the mailing list, where you will receive a download link for the digital copy. Join the mailing list now, and be the first to check out something new.

Y’all are beautiful.
Come on down to the Space tonight. Fun starts at 8 PM.
Sad to hear this. Time to re-read OG Swamp Thing.
