Me and Jeff, no flash

My friend and frequent character in this blog Jeff Klein has a nice writeup on Spin.com today.

Go there to listen to the track "Sleepwalking" from his forthcoming digitally-released EP I Sing The Body Electric.

Jeff's doing a residency at the Living Room in NYC this month, so go see him and tell him I sent you.

Missing My Faraway Friends

Dave at the bar

I've been missing my friends who live far away.

Yesterday I got a text message from my friend Dave Doobinin in NYC:

"F**ing whale sank my van"

He followed it up with a wine-soaked voicemail last night, and it made me nostalgic for nights walking around Manhattan or drinking at Luna Lounge, singing Vanderslice lyrics to each other.

I also found some photos on my phone from my trip to Austin in June.

The first thing I did after I dropped my stuff off at Chad's house is drive over to Chris, Monica, Booher and Jeff's place. Chris showed some Texan hospitality by greeting me with a frosty beverage.

Welcome to Austin

While grocery shopping with Jeff, I witnessed my first self-serve checkout stand.

Here's Jeff at the Longbranch Inn, their friendly neighborhood watering hole.

One night Jeff and I squared off with Chris and Monica in a game of Cranium. For one of the challenges, I had to look at word on a card, then draw it with my eyes closed. Jeff had to guess the word before the little sand counter ran out. Here is what I drew (remember, I couldn't see what I was drawing):

Cranium clue

Jeff watched me for about seven seconds, and then, to my amazement, blurted out the word on the first try. Click the photo to see what the word was.
