I'm a former editor at a Northern California alt-weekly who decided to jump the sinking ship of journalism and take the sleeker, sexier U-boat of blogging to Portland. Sort of. I still write for said alt-weekly as well as SPIN.com. I also play music ... most recently with these guys and this duo. In a former life I played with these derelicts.
The Days of Lore was a weekly column I started in 2005 that included random musings on life, liberty and the pursuit of music--from twee-pop to black metal, from finger lickin' good to bad to the bone. Check in every Friday for TDoL's metal feature called Black Friday.
There's plenty more where that came from at TheDaysofLore.com. Let's become imaginary friends and I'll buy you an imaginary drink.
biggs spotted days of lore walking into spiteris, biggs might get a corned beef with swiss on light rye, or maybe a hot pastrami/pepperjack/dutchcrunch, or smoked turkey/smoked cheddar/ on sourdough.....not sure which until the maker asks, but it might switch before said maker grabs the bread, but biggs wouldn't change its mind like that. peace
