I'm sorry to hear about the Hootie gig.<BR/><BR/>Not sure you'll remember me, but we knew each other Freshman year at UNC—including, among other things, astronomy class and Tequila Sunrises on the roof of Granville Towers!<BR/><BR/>I've got me a little blog, too. I was reminded of one of the books I reviewed there (<A>http://wisdomofthewest.blogspot.com/2008/08/isnt-it-good-norwegian-wood.html</A> while catching up reading your recent posts (which I discovered through your NYTimes gig—congrats): <I>Out Stealing Horses</I> by Per Petterson. I highly commend it to you. The last line, in particular, resonates:<BR/><BR/>"The wind still came icily down between the houses from the river, and my hand felt swollen and sore where the nails had pierced the skin when I clenched it so hard, but all the same everything felt fine at that moment; the suit was fine, and the town was fine to walk in, along the cobblestone street, and <B>we do decide for ourselves when it will hurt</B>."<BR/><BR/>We do, you know.<BR/><BR/>Good to see you're doing music and journo and being familial.<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/>Jim H.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
