While Katryna and I were at our Passim concert, this was happening at home. The dogs met up in the park and invited Greta over for dinner.

For our concert tomorrow at the Bombyx, we've hired some ringers: Ben Demerath on mandolin and Alison Eldredge on violin will be joining our own Jonathan Blocksam on cello. The show is a benefit for Center for New Americans and Jewish Family Service. Don't miss it!

“His Core Audience Are Young White Males Who Are Threatened by Minorities” - George Carlin, predicting the rise of MAGA influencers decades ago
