Happy New Year!

2022 will mark this blog‘s 20th anniversary.

I’m kind of excited!

But first let’s talk about the weekend.

Tonight – New Year’s Eve – my band “Elephant in the Room” is playing at the American Legion in Fridley. We will be starting at 8:30 PM, and ringing in the new year. The Legion has those cool edge of the metro food and drink prices, without actually being outside the metro, which is kind of cool. Hope you can make it out there.

Tomorrow on the show? I will be talking with Rebecca Brannon about her run in with the Hennepin county machine over her reporting on Sheriff Hutchinson‘s DUI.

And tomorrow night, we will be playing at Neisen‘s Sports Bar and Grill, in Savage. I love our bars, but Nissans has a stage that makes you feel kind of like a rockstar, and a sound system that makes us sound like one. No cover.

I hope we run into each other, literally or figuratively, during any or all of the above!

    I spent my childhood in Fridley. Went to Parkview Elementary. Graduated, too 🙂 But ’tis too far away for me to drive to, now.

    I’ll be. Parkview elementary is now a pre-school and senior program place, according to google earth. In the google earth photo I can pick out the lunch room / gymnasium, which was destroyed & rebuilt after the tornado swarm of ’65.

    Happy New Year and congratulations on the anniversary. Unfortunately, I’ll be in Chicago this weekend, so I’ll miss your gigs. along with Buffalo Tap down the street, Niesen’s is one of my favorite bars. Living just across the river in Bloomington, it’s a quick jaunt for me.

    Before I agree to 2022 — I’m going to need to see the terms and conditions.

    Hope it went well. I’m in North Carolina enjoying 70 degree temps. Sorry you’re all freezing. I’ll be home in a couple of days.

    Doc, the SE is enjoying a perfect winter. My bougainvillea and roses are still blooming, the jasmine vines are still green and leafy and even the elephant ears are going to survive to spring.

    On our land, our winter crops look better than the summer. We’ve got piles of Brussels sprouts.
