Well this was fun. Yes, that’s a Weber grill on stage. And the largest saxophone I’ve ever seen.
Violent Femmes performing onstage with their name projected behind them. There’s a huge saxophone and a black dome grill on stage with the band and their other instruments.

Maybe the early drop will keep crowds smaller when I’m up there again next weekend. Silver lining?

I just looked through the contract for my forthcoming book, and yes, there's language to that effect in there.

If publisher submits claim then it’s technically a 50/50 split but convos could happen between you guys. I think some publishers have stated they will give 100% to authors

I got heat pumps and kept my gas furnace. I just use the furnace a lot less through. when using gas alone, our upstairs would get too hot. running heat pumps on both levels prevents that. and the gas kicks in mainly to top off the heat pumps when it's too cold for the heat pumps to fully keep up.
