Sinister: i'm from the lou and i'm proud

[Mike Appelstein]

Hi folks:

When last we spoke, I think I was living in NYC.  Or maybe I'd already moved
to Seattle.  In any event, I am now here in St. Louis, MO.  It's not so
bad - in fact, it's better than I thought it would be.  I'm keeping a blog
of my experiences here in the Midwest: http://djearlybird.blogspot.com.

("DJ Early Bird" is my DJ alter ego.  My wife Callie gave it to me upon
noting that I'm always early for things.  It's true.  Plus it's a DJ name I
can continue to use when I'm, you know, older.  Do they have Early Bird
Specials in Europe?)

My main reason for writing is to express my shock that Belle & Sebastian
will be coming to St. Louis in November.  This news has just made my entire
year - as much as I like Missouri, it's not exactly a hotspot for touring
bands.  Heck, I might even travel to Lawrence and Chicago to see them.  If
any of you Sinisterinos are coming here, let me know - I'll pass along food
and drink recommendations.

back to lurking,
mike
