About me:

Longtime fan of various Boston-area bands, lover of great music, film, art (especially graphic design and typography) and literature, none of which I'm any good at. I do think I snap a decent pic now and then (you can judge that for yourself at bobcolby.com). Past ventures include FRENZY! rock fanzine, Readercon (literary SF conference, see www.readercon.org) and TypeCon (conference for typographic aficianados, see www.typesociety.org). The first of these is long-dead, the last two are up and running under new management.

Who I'd like to meet:

    The Maltese
    1600 Park Ave.
    Chico, CA 95928

    9:30 pm 21+ $3 cover
    Local legend Lori Campion is blowing through town June 27 with her classic Chico bands, Booze (featuring Tom Little, Carey Wilson, Campion), The Verves - a Tribute to the Velvet Underground (featuring Campion, Joe Martin of Job's DeSoto, Charles Mohnike of Job's DeSoto and Carey Wilson).

    That's right - for only $3 you can experience the best of the Chico rock scene, cheap beer, and loud women.
