Rock the Bells tickets go on sale this Saturday. I was concerned that a pre-sale notice had been sent while my email was down, but no such notification has gone out yet.

Rage Against the Machine adds more dates. New York, San Bernadino, and San Francisco. It turns out Rage Against the Machine will play more than one show after all–the seminal L.A. band will join the Wu-Tang Clan for three shows under the banner of Rock the Bells, the acclaimed hip-hop festival that kicks off in … …

Won the Sienna Texas Hold’em championship tournament last night and a trip for two to Mexico. Yeah! I’m actually more excited about finishing first than I am about winning the grand prize. Already looking forward to next season.
Been agonizing for days over starting Bledsoe vs Brunell this week. As if it will make a difference… On a related note, the score pager is working quite nicely.
