Not a lot of time to hang out and write today. Fortober Fest 2013 was a blast. Thanks to The Fort Collins Downtown Business Association for inviting me to be a part of things this year. What a fun season. Thanks to the Railbenders, Jeff Brinkman, 12 Cents for Marvin and the other 12 bands that made the 2nd season of the festival so much fun. The DBA donated 10% of profits and 100% of tips to flood relief – thank you executive director Michael Short and asst e.d. Peggy Lyle … much love you guys.
Today I’m off to host BIODIESEL FOR BANDS FIRST ANNUAL MEMBER MEETING AND PARTY with Mama Lenny & the Remedy and Carlton Pride & Mighty Zion. http://www.biodieselforbands.org/ for more information.
Good news since last week. Oskar Blues Lyons survived the horrific damages in Lyons. Of course, the not so good news that also came out is that it will take 2-6 months before the city of Lyons gets back up. In the meantime, the only people allowed to stay are those who are completely self sufficient.
