Joe's evaluation

Friday the 2nd was Joe's evaluation, literally an exercise in blind creation.  A couple of TC grads (and track team alumni) stopped in to participate, as well.  His own explanation and assessment of the activity will follow.  Until then, we will all be listening to Sean's mixtape.  Check out the Famous Winters track from Joe's mixtape here, plus two others.    

The Famous Winters: 2 upcoming shows

The fellows responsible for the shimmery, shaky, reedy, breezy "Forever that Boy" on Joe's mix are playing a couple local shows in the next few days.  See me about specifics.
