I Give You My Word: July 2010
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 08, 2010. Like a Rolling Stone. Jobs Applied For: Zero, but I did apply for unemployment. It’s a start. To Do List: 6 of 7 items done. Not bad. I know Friday was officially. I went to pick up my new glasses today. Ordered and paid for just days before being laid off, they were a reminder of how drastically things have changed in such a short amount of time. I like them so far, but they hold far less importance to me than they did a week ago. Things. I blame the constant construction noise ...

I Give You My Word: I Knew Things Were Going Too Smoothly
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2009/08/i-knew-things-were-going-too-smoothly.html
Tuesday, August 25, 2009. I Knew Things Were Going Too Smoothly. The Charlatans are sorry to announce the cancellation of their forthcoming North American tour. This is due to drummer Jon Brookes' longstanding shoulder complaint. He has been strongly advised by doctors against undertaking 23 concerts in 28 days as this could cause severe damage to ligaments in the affected area. He will start a course of treatment starting in September and in the coming months to rectify the condition. Pod Is My Copilot.

I Give You My Word: Writers Gonna Write
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2011/07/writers-gonna-write.html
Monday, July 11, 2011. This brings me to THE POINT. The thing that has actually urged me to try and shut off, at least temporarily, the nagging part of my brain that tells me I won't finish this either, so I shouldn't bother. It was something that two actual writers. That I respect, people that get paid to do it. Said to me and the other 200 people in the audience that paid to hear them speak about writing and comedy and just generally being awesome people. What I'm saying here is, prepare for the worst.

I Give You My Word: March 2009
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 28, 2009. I Like My Music Loud. Festival season is upon us! This would have blown my mind in 1996. I think they should play at the same time on opposite ends of the park and see who draws the biggest crowd. Seriously, guys, let's settle this feud once and for all, ok? Let's just say my ears were still ringing well into the next day. I think it finally stopped around 3pm. Pretty intense, eh? More pictures on my Flickr. Last night, Jon and I went to a Gapers Block. Meet-up. They have on...

I Give You My Word: May 2009
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 17, 2009. Somewhere Only We Know. Keane came out swinging last night and by the end of the evening, had knocked us all out. I'm always surprised when I remember that they only have three albums, because the sheer number of memorable, catchy, beautiful songs in their repertoire trumps some bands that have been around for ages. Check out Jon's amazing photos and videos here. I think it's fair to say that this has been the best show of our tour so far.". After about a four minute applause break].

I Give You My Word: Nerdy and Manic...
http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2009/10/nerdy-and-manic.html
Sunday, October 04, 2009. The perfect way to describe the past few days of my life. In case you don't know this about me, in addition to being a massive music snob and avid concert goer, I am also a mega comedy nerd. One of the major perks of my job is that it affords me ample time and pretty much forces me to listen to podcasts and music all day long, in order to drown out the sound of the people around me. One of the people I've "discovered" through podcasts (and the very special A Special Thing. If yo...

http://comeinnumber21.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 23, 2009. We got there on Saturday just in time for The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, who were decent enough. Poppy, summery, upbeat sort of music, even though their name seems to suggest a certain level of angst. I was shocked and rambled on about nerdy things, as I do when I meet people I admire. They were both very sweet and they seemed not to be annoyed with us stopping them, though we were praising their film, so who would be annoyed at that, right? More people to watch. Because they ...
