My little brother stopped by yesterday to hang out with Prairie and I for a while on his way down to Corvallis to scout out job and housing options, as he and Emily will be moving there soon after the birth of their baby. We had a fun time visiting for a few hours, playing music, swapping stories, and generally just hanging out. He’ll be back through town next weekend on his way back to Mississippi, too.
Should make for a fun weekend — I mentioned to Shawna (Shauna?), one of the owners of The Vogue, that my brother was coming through town, and she was kind enough to get me a free “admit two” pass to next Saturday night so that I could introduce my hippie-bluegrass-reggae lovin’ brother to the Seattle goth-industrial-new wave scene. Much hilarity should ensue…
