Will this affect The Postal Service's Postal Service show? Not that I'm going….

That would be the show that happened two days ago?

It was quite hush-hush. I combed the net– and even called my friendly postmaster– in attempts to find it, to no avail.

Sorry to be a day late on this post, but please allow me to express my discontent at the first show i've heard of that CHARGES MONEY to get in at Artomatic. I mean, even the bar is "suggested donations" for beer, not $5 oryougetnone.

This is a dangerous, scary thing. Yes, I wanted to see the film. But on Priciple™, I can't go.

what and who is this group? i mean it seems like it is a novelty or something, but my friend swears by them? uh..

Okay, now I know I read a couple weeks ago somewhere about a show or tour of their's being cancelled for some reason. Maybe it was just one show elsewhere.

I'm assuming this must be January, as the 21 in December is a Tuesday…

Does he have solo work out (or is any expected)?

No, but the Decemberists are putting out a new record in, I think, March.
