...so the show went pretty good...hung the work on friday...the space was just a cavern, so it was tough to fill it...not out best show but there are some hot spots...it's good practice, because i just found out the group got into the Nova show, which is this year's equivalent of the Stray show, which was the lo-fi (and i would say better) counterpart to ArtChicago...it featured independent galleries, artists, and project spaces. after the show on sat., i went out and saw a couple bands...it was a lot of fun, because i saw that there is a scene on the southside, and it's alive and doing well...

So I'm talking to this woman at work who lives in Pullman and she was telling me about how her garden club is going to have a show at the Berverly Arts Center. So, just in passing, trying to make conversation, I say, "Have you been there lately?"
And she says "What's lately?" and I say, "I dunno, a week or two?"
"Oh, no, why?"
"Well, I've got a friend who has a show there, and I'd really like to go, but Beverly is so hard to get to without a car."
"Seven reasons to leave your house?"
"What"
"Is it Seven Reasons to Leave Your House?"
"Are you asking if that's the name of the show? I don't know."
So she picks up her copy of the Daily Southytown and says "Well, if it was, that's really weird, because I just read an article about it. What's your friend's name."
And then I was horribly embarrased, because clearly I do not know your last name--I know it's listed on your site but I don't know which you are, and maybe I shouldn't have said "friend" in the first place but what else can you say, this guy I've talked to on the internet a coupole of time? what kind of bs is that? :wink: and so I tried to buy some time, pretended I didn't hear, tried to grab the paper from her and finally said, "Well, his name probably wouldn't be in there but it's the Big Fun collective." And then we realize that it is you! Hooray!
In short, I saw the article about your show. Congrats!
