@manosundaresan you know this even if you don't know it yet but you're building too much talent not to end up in a place that will value you more. it's been a treat to see you come into your own and whatever I can do to lend opportunities and sympathies -- get at me!
@mrsslrss marissa this is goddamn rotten. I've so admired what you've built and was so happy to see you doing such good work there. I would like to yell at people on your behalf!!!
you have many in your corner, but if you ever want my post-guillotine perspective -- I'd be happy to share.
@manosundaresan in 2018 when he returned as a reserve PG he explained he had to say it "for the culture"
and yes he was there for Game 6 and in the parade
@pgranitz I believe Gunnar/Waterford uses American-made steel too (reporting would indicate that Bilenky used Columbus i.e. Italian steel) if anyone else wants to send Boris a MUSA bike
@erinisconfused Hi! I believe so, under new management obviously, as the founder is deceased but the brand is putting out new stuff. Not sure who runs it now though?
The first story I've edited for @capitalbop is the saga of how a local musician tracked down the primary instrument of all-time great Stuff Smith -- after 50 years of storage -- and got it into the hands of a promising young violinist. https://t.co/XKJcWmrrCC
*some personal news*
I'm doing a jazz thing again with a crew I've always admired.
This isn't, like, my grand return to the music media world. This is about me trying to be a better listener and DC citizen. So if you have a story about the music happening here, I'm all ears.
We're thrilled to welcome the talented Patrick Jarenwattananon (@patrickjaren) as CapitalBop's first-ever managing editor. You can read his arrival letter here. https://t.co/W7xedTrNER
Wrote about 'Eat. Race. Win.' and it published while I was eating for and racing in the @usacycling Amateur National Championship Road Race. (I did not win.)
Review: The novelty of "Eat. Race. Win." is that we get to see the Tour de France through the eyes of the team chef tasked to feed the hungry participants who eat three times what normal people do. https://t.co/eNVcUrzsZt
Me: yea I dunno man I just haven't been writing about music much these days
Also Me: here's 2800+ words at @Bandcamp on an obscure free jazz album (@Valleyofsearch) from 1975

I was entasked to adapt this radio story into the Internet for https://t.co/orY2EnHbAL today. I suggested "Fake Hues" be worked into the headline. It didn't take. https://t.co/HWnlPBEAd7
@LynnPNeary @ulabeast as a Milwaukee native, I find it wonderfully ironic that it took an adult film star to get the Arts Desk to learn about a ridiculous specimen whose videos I watch regularly late at night alone at my computer
