For What It's Worth...

Grosse Pointe Blank
Last Saturday was my 10-year high school reunion. Nothing too surprising. Nobody has really changed. Some hair was a little more thin and some waistlines were less thin. I was going to write a whole article about it, but there’s not really enough material. I did learn that my favorite teacher (Mr. John Wargelin) was still doing well. I credit him with getting me started in electronic art and design. In any event, Gina and I grew tired of the crowd and left early, so we could catch the late performance at The Second City. It’s a great show. I recommend it to anyone in the Metro Detroit Area.

Tools and Watch Batteries.
Apparently, the only tools to be found at the “jewelry centers” in popular mega stores are the ones standing behind the counter. I simply want a battery for my cheap, waterproof Casio watch. But, you need some mystical tool to open it. I found said tool for $6 online. As soon as I get it, I’ll be going to one of the aforementioned megastores to ask for a battery. When they say, “We don’t have the tool for that!”, I’ll whip out the magic watch tool, open the watch, then exclaim “HOW ABOUT NOW?!”
I’m just tired of the runaround every time I want a $3 lithium battery. Seriously.

Turkey Day. Rogerbox plays again.
Thanksgiving this year was a little less stressful. We usually dash frantically from one side of the metro area to another. However, this year, our schedules worked out well. We even got to eat this time!
Ben came into town last week too. It was very cool to see him. We’re hoping to head out to NYC to chill sometime soon.
Rogerbox has been asked to open for LENNON, a national band fronted by Lennon Murphy. We’re excited to play with someone so similar to our style… not to mention a national act. The show starts at 9:30, December 11th at the I-Rock in Detroit.

More Rogerbox love…
Rogerbox played at the I-Rock in Detroit on Wednesday (the biggest bar night of the year)… with a selection of bands we wouldn’t classify as a good fit (Hate Makes Rage, Gruesome Harvest Orchestra, Headsmashedin), but the audience really liked us. Things are still going well; we’re working on new songs and plan to record soon. In fact, the I-Rock asked us to open for LENNON on December 11th. This will be our first show with a national act. Based on her what I’ve heard so far, we should be a good fit as an opening act.

Detroit Rock City. DNS… BIND… just kick me in the head.
Rogerbox has been playing a lot lately. Most recently, we played a show at the I-Rock Nightclub. We were the only band that night, and the turnout was pretty impressive. The bar asked us to come back and play on Wednesday (Nov. 26)… the biggest bar night of the year. Check us out if you have some free time and like cheap drinks!
One character is all it takes. Just one character missing from a DNS zone file to take 3 hours of your life away. 3 hours that I’ll never get back… thanks to a missing “$” in my TTL declaration. That’s the last time I edit a zone file after holiday shopping… I think they put something in the air to make you susceptible to suggestion.
