My dad, bro, conor madigan, gabe fuson, everyone from the first to bang some rocks together to the last artist I just listened to on myspace, not to mention Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Rafy, James Taylor, Jeff Buckley, Ryan Adams, Platero y Tú, Fito & Fitipaldis, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, John Mayer, Gillian Welch, Towns Van Zandt...
I first saw light in some hospital in Washington DC. I argued with Conor over who could use the brown cup, he moved to Chicago and I to Boston, MA. I perfected my mat-ball and capture-the-flag abilities at The Park School in Brookline, MA, Boston Latin School was my next a.m. daily destination, then on to Concord Academy in Concord, MA where I learned that school is just a conduit for learning, I differed college for a year to become a potter, but ended up living in Barcelona and Alicante Spain instead. My life changed. I decided to spend my days in Indiana at Earlham College and I learned to love people and then promptly forgot. I loved music and let it dictate who got to use the brown plastic cup. Junior year was spent at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid studying geology and culture changed my life and my smile. Then I came home and sought comfort in the nooks and crannies of intellectual pursuit, in th end it was the oatmeal that saved me. Then I was swept off my feet and landed dazed on the west coast. And so I found a place to sleep in San Francisco.
Querido Nate, no he podido pasarme por tu concierto porque tenía otro compromiso, y me ha dado mucha pena...la verdad es que ha sido un poco repentino el que te fueras y no nos ha dado tiempo a prepararte la despedida que te mereces con todo el coro al completo...pero espero que te la lleves en el corazón. Desde luego tú si nos has dejado tu poso en el nuestro y , también ¿Por qué no decirlo? Los famosos Goooooooonnaaaaa...esto nunca volverá a ser igual ;-) Pues nada, que te mando un abrazo y toda la energía positiva para tu nueva vida, aunque sé que volverás (siempre vuelves, ya lo dijiste)...y aquí estaremos esperándote.
