Sorry ghost traditionalists but haunting people while you’re still alive is just better. Like I have this friend who borrowed a book a while ago and never returned it, and the other night I followed him around his house opening his kitchen cabinets and booing him, and you know what? Got my book back

Old abusive father): “I kept you fed and alive…”

It’s the one thing he’s gotten done right. As Leader of the free world it’s what he’s *supposed* to broker.

It doesn’t erase the other stupid unconstitutional dung he’s done.

With profound regret and sadness, I have to cancel these upcoming shows:

6/20 - The 443 Social Club & Lounge, Syracuse NY
6/21 - 6 On The Square, Oxford NY
6/22 - Godfrey Daniels, Bethlehem PA

This cancer has left me voiceless. I’m told I’ll probably have a voice by fall or winter. So sorry!
