This week I saw 11 bands across four nights at two venues in Austin, Mohawk and 29th Street Ballroom.
It was a great time, and I’m very tired.
Today I rested and listened to the albums I bought at three of the shows which the bands were happy to sign for me.
I hit the craziest luck at the beginning of the game, got greedy, and then got burnt.
This likely would have been my highest Zombie Galacti scoring game. #MarvelSnap

Last month my friend Erik and I visited every record store in #Austin. #vinyl

Last Fall, Erik, one of my oldest friends (who lives halfway across the country), hit me up and asked, ”If I buy Nine Inch Nails tickets for their Austin show, would you go with me?” Obviously, the answer was “yes,” and we planned a trip for him to spend about a week with us. I told him that I wanted to go to every record store in Austin with him when he’s here. He’s the reason I got into collecting records over 10 years ago, and because of that, I decided he would be the perfect person to go on this adventure with.
