Seeing huge crowds in not only the expected big cities, but unexpected and smaller ones, like Milwaukee, Marquette, Salt Lake, Portsmouth, Portland (Maine), and in small towns. And this is the NYT headline. What’s going on over there? Seriously. “Several”? “Bemoan … lack of strong opposition”?

Boston-area friends, I’ll be playing a solo benefit show at the Burren on January 18, with all net proceeds to go to the Trevor Project. My small drop in the bucket, direct response to the election results. Working out details now. Early show, like the old days. Home and in bed by 10:17.
