Another major reason I went ahead and got myself to New York was the fact that Brenda’s band, North Highlands, was going to play their last show ever

Whitney Biennial

clearly ripping off the Future Art Notables’ install at the Verge

Sadly, I was really underwhelmed with the collections of this particular Biennial. I sat outside on a bench and pondered if I even enjoyed art at all anymore. Then I went upstairs and saw some of the permanent collection and felt much better about things

Prom at the Crocker

Best Summer Ever Band  had the great fortune of playing at the Crocker Art Museum again. We were asked to play songs from the 90s for their Art Mix Prom. Tears were shed in the bathroom, royalty was anointed, slow dances were monitored by ruler clad staff, and the punch was spiked.

They really do give equal space to the ladies and men of California history. Like my childhood hero Kristi Yamaguchi

I just about lost my mind after seeing her skates

Really great to see how much respect Sacramentan Ray Eames was given.
