Some positive news for your feed! I'm going to be DJing at Pearl & Stone Winery in North Bend on March 28. Two whole hours of eclectic and wonderful underground tunes for ears while you sip on delicious wine. What could be better? Nothing, that's what. (Not actually true, but close enough).

I was just thinking, how can we keep track of all the many suits against Trump? Lo and behold, the NYT has put together this handy tracker. Sure, yes, it's behind a paywall, so let me also take this moment to recommend getting a subscription to the NYT 👍

On a very positive note, I am super excited to share that I'm going to be DJing a set of David Lynch inspired tunes at Pearl and Stone Wine Co. for Real Twin Peaks Weekend! I'll be there from 1 - 4 pm on Saturday Feb 22. Stop on by and say howdy if you're in North Bend! ❤️

Spotted at Pearl and Stone Winery in North Bend! I'm very excited to get to play a set of David Lynch-y tunes in celebration of Real Twin Peaks weekend! I'll be there from 1-4pm tomorrow, playing tunes from the black lodge and the white lodge and all the wonderful and strange places in between 🦉
