Let’s start with the video that makes me like Tim Lincecum even more:

Next is a beautiful Flickr gallery of the current incarnation of a Moog Taurus bass pedal.\u00a0 When used correctly, this instrument can take the paint off the walls, remove fillings and rearrange internal organs:<\/p>\n

Steve Hackett will be playing NearFest<\/a> next June.\u00a0 Other acts include Iona, The Enid, Three Friends (what is that, a Gentle Giant cover band), Astra and Pineapple Thief.\u00a0 Since I don’t know anything about the other acts, I have a lot of homework to do.\u00a0 Nearfest takes place in Bethlehem, PA.\u00a0 (Via Bill’s Prog Blog<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Zombi is coming to Johnny Brenda’s on December 19<\/a>.\u00a0 Should be a pretty good prog show.\u00a0 So far, I like what I’ve heard from this Pittsburgh duo.\u00a0 Tickets are ten dollars and it is the best place to see music of any type in Philadelphia.\u00a0 Here’s a taste of Zombi:

And a few fiction notes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Aliette de Boddard<\/a> has some new fiction available for your reading pleasure.\u00a0 ‘After The Fire’ is another intense SF short story that you can read here<\/a> or listen to as part of a podcast here<\/a>.\u00a0 Both are highly recommended.<\/li>\n
  2. There is a feisty conversation about my favorite book of the year, Jay Lake’s Green over at Torque Control<\/a>.\u00a0 You have excerpts of some reviews, but the real drama unfolds in the comments.\u00a0 My thoughts are interposed and largely ignored by the literati sharing criticism.\u00a0 The link came via the author’s twitter feed<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Hope everyone has had a nice weekend.\u00a0 It’s a beautiful Sunday here in Philadelphia, so we’re off to do some outdoor chores.\u00a0 Peace, live and music to you all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
