We had a very succesful reading the other night. A few dozen folks showed up and I read from EDM and Creative License. It's sort of odd that I have only done this one reading from my books; they adapt themselves to being read aloud much better than I'd imagined. Maybe I'll get invited to do some more.

RIght now I am packing up to go to Vancouver, Canada for the week. I am shooting a couple of Crayola commercials there and am quite excited to visit a city I've heard is very nice.

Jack's band, the Peeps, are playing tonight. They are doing an Allman Brothers song and AC/DC's TNT. It's the hardest rock they've done so far, reflecting their changing lineup. They have a new guitarist (who wants to rtname the band 'King Kong') and they have replaced their vocalist. Jack is very into a book called Scar Tissue by Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, presumably preparing for The Peeps' inevitable World Tour.

Yo Danny,
Have fun in Vancouver. It *is* a lovely city although it's had a rough time in recent months with unprecedented storms (beautiful Stanley Park lost many trees). I'm in Toronto, which the rest of Canada hates because they think that we think that we're the centre of the universe. That said, I think Vancouverites are too laid back to hate anybody.

Just end all of your sentences with "eh?" and you'll fit right in.

Have a good time in Vancouver, Danny. I am from there but currently live in Hong Kong.

For sketching opportunities, head down to English Bay or Gastown. Granville Island will also keep you busy.

How cool can it be to go from a corporate bank account to colorful crayons!!
