It’s amazing how if you put your blog address on your facebook profile, suddenly 8 people are looking at your blog where before it was only 2….that’s a real jump in my blog stats, I don’t mind telling you.
Had an interesting conversation about whether or not the existence of an audience inherently endangers the quality of art. I’m not saying this little wordpress experiment in narcissism is art, but I am aware of my audience and suddenly I’m nervous about who you’all are…so I’m going to pretend you’re not there, not unlike the tactic of hiding behind a thin tree where the only hidden parts are your eyes.
But hey, you know who has only gotten better as his audience has grown? Josh Ritter. His was one of the best shows I maybe have ever seen, and certainly than I’ve seen in many a long month or year. Fun, happy, jumpy, dry, complete with seriously amazing singing along and audience participation. Everyone should see him, but not until I get to see him again for as cheap as he was this time….see? Narcissistic. Told you.
