I do indeed. Josh sits around the corner from me. When he's not on tour and all.

I could see if I could find another ticket close to the ones I got and we could all go. yes? no?

Dude, if I didn't need to buy a bike I TOTALLY WOULD. But I have to get a bike before I can do anything else.

The CTA is gonna totally implode in like, 3 months, and if I don't have a bike before then, I am gonna KILL MYSELF.

I'm confuzzled...Chuck Klosterman is on tour?? Does he play something? Is he reading Fargo Rock City aloud?

I was gonna tell you...I recently got a sampler CD from Marlboro or Camel or something, and Tapes N' Tapes was on it. :)

I have no idea if he's actually on tour. Here's the info for the show:
89.3 The Current presents The Current Fakebook with Chuck Klosterman and Tapes 'n' Tapes at The Fitzgerald Theater on Friday, February 23rd at 8:00 pm. The Current Fakebook will bring together writers, be they novelists, screenwriters, bloggers or critics, and some of their favorite musicians for an evening of music and insights that spring from the written word. Current on-air host Mary Lucia , a writer and humorist in her own right, will interview guests and give them time and space to express themselves in a casual, creative and innovative format.

Minnesota native Chuck Klosterman is an American pop-culture journalist, critic, and essayist. Klosterman is the author of Fargo Rock City: A Heavy Metal Odyssey in Rural North Dakota, Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs: A Low Culture Manifesto, and Killing Yourself to Live: 85% of a True Story. He is a senior writer for SPIN, a columnist for Esquire, and a contributor to The New York Times Magazine. He has also written for The New York Times Book Review, The Believer, The Washington Post, The Akron Beacon Journal, The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead, Gear, Blender, Film Comment, The Village Voice, and GQ. He currently lives in New York.

Tapes 'n Tapes, Minneapolis, indie rock band, formed in the winter of 2003, the band has released two albums, the self-released Tapes 'n Tapes followed by the full-length release, The Loon. Tapes 'n Tapes' musical style varies in tempo and in influence, ranging from fast-paced polka renditions to the slower, more blues-influenced songs. The band made its American television debut on Late Night with David Letterman on July 25th, 2006, performing the song "Insistor." The band's song "Jakov's Suite" was used in a television commercial for Nissan.


Ha ha. I'm sure Josh loves that his band is promoting smoking. =)
