Looking for a cozy place on a chilly Tuesday night? I'm co-curating a set feat. Stephen Marotto on solo cello at Cambridge MA's Lilypad, which is followed by a Taylor Ho Bynum, Jeff Song, Pandelis Karayorgis & Eric Rosenthal quartet performance. Good music, good beer, nice people. Doors open at 7.

These last 2 weeks I've been especially grateful to the good old-fashioned Boston Globe for presenting me with most of the facts I need with clarity and without hyperbole. I can't exactly calibrate my panic at this point, but it means a lot to have a steady info source that is this grounded.

I haven’t found words yet to express how intensely thrilling this renewed collaboration was for me. But for now I just want to express so much gratitude for the musicianship and hard work of the Guerilla Opera team, and for the attentive, spirited, open-minded audience that came to check it out.

My quest to figure out where home is for me on social media continues... I do love that here I can still find some of you who left X! And I'm trying to spread word that my 2009 opera about the 2008 VP debate (Palin & Biden!) is returning to the stage for one night only, 10/5. guerillaopera.org
