Hey, if you're coming up for the Prefuse 73 show, let me know. I'd be interested in hanging out.

Cool, I'll keep you posted. I'm hoping for a DC date to crop up, mostly because my transportation situation and the fact that the Ottobar show is on a Sunday. Still, I may have to make it up there.

In any case, it would be fun to meet up!

Assuming $5 for the shows without prices, that comes to $142. I guess it'll be sock puppets with wally at home for for fun for me.

Tim: Don't knock it til you try it. Wally loves a good sock.

$142, eh? I'll buy that. I doubt I'll make it to every show, of course. I may not make it to Slint, for example, since I'm seeing them later that week in Chicago.

You should go to the Futureheads with me (and Hal?).
