Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Wednesday, February 04, 2004. Did a double-take this morning reading today's Achewood strip. It's one letter away from my last name but close enough to have me briefly believing Ray Smuckles had a special secret message for me. (To fill you in, in the previous strip we learn that Ray has been sending money to a shady sounding video company.). Posted by Tim @ 11:14 AM. Tuesday, February 03, 2004. Here's a link to a fascinating comparison. Posted by Tim @ 9:27 AM.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Friday, April 25, 2003. Ruthie, the bass-player who answered my band ad introduced herself to me after the open mic was over. She seems cool. She's coming over tomorrow with her bass. Posted by Tim @ 12:31 PM. Wednesday, April 23, 2003. HOW MUCH DID THEY PAY MADISON AVE FOR THAT?

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, September 27, 2004. Something of a landmark weekend this weekend for the Actual Facts. Our first out of town show, and first show with Gregg, our new drummer. We packed up John's VW camper and drove up to Rochester for a show at Monty's Krown. Supporting John's brother's band Hinkley. In between songs. He said he meant it in an encouraging way, so I said okay and got his name for the mailing list. Posted by Tim @ 10:04 AM. March 23, 2003. March 30, 2003.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, May 05, 2003. What a long day. I couldn't bring myself to do any work today. Spent most of the afternoon reading transcripts of the HUAC hearings: Lillian Helman, Paul Robeson, Pete Seeger. Started out with the Joseph Welch testimony and the "Have you no decency, sir? Transcript. What a bizarre, terrifying time. Posted by Tim @ 5:08 PM. Sunday, May 04, 2003. Posted by Tim @ 12:49 PM. Don't Let Our Youth Go To Waste DVD. March 23, 2003. March 30, 2003.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, May 12, 2003. Terrific open mic on Thursday. The best yet. Some really talented players. Over a dozen people played, and everyone that played was good. The southern, old-timey vibe was perpetuated by Emily Shumway and our dapper Tennessean friend Curtis who played, respectively, Missisippi John Hurt-style country blues. From hereon American folk gave way to South American and African music. There was Lalo and his berimbau. The evening ended with a guy nam...

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, April 14, 2003. Monday morning and back to work. On my way in this morning I listened to Radiohead's Airbag/How Am I Driving EP which I borrowed from our neighbor Kathleen. What a pleasant, funny surprise to hear the Prague subway announcement fade in at the beginning of track 4 ("A Reminder")! That soothing maternal voice: .PŘÍŠTÍ STANICE: JIŘÍHO Z PODĔBRAD.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, April 28, 2003. Posted by Tim @ 3:02 PM. Ruthie, the bass-player came over on Saturday afternoon and we practised. Things went well. She's competent and enthusiastic, and she likes my songs. The lines she came up with to my songs were simple and strong, and she was cool about making changes and trying different things. She can sing backup also and seems to be able to pick out harmonies easily. And she's cute too. Posted by Tim @ 2:20 PM. March 23, 2003.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Tuesday, April 08, 2003. Today I've got the Iron and Wine song Southern Anthem going through my head. The song describes a woman who is overcome with emotion whenever she hears a particular hymn. "And when that southern Anthem rings / she will buckle to the sound / when that southern anthem sings / it will lay her burdens down". It's so beautiful and sad. Posted by Tim @ 11:31 AM.

Man on the Run. Euphoria in the sickroom. Monday, November 24, 2003. John and I are trying to come up with a name for our band. John has been taking his mp3 player around town and assaulting various local musicians with our demos and the response has been particularly positive, but we still don't have a name for people to remember us by. It's hard to find the name that's evocative and easy to remember and that the other band members can agree on. Thankfully, because we are a power trio (! Mimi Won a Ham.
