You're being prevented by Henry Cabot Lodge?

I drank tea with Ian Mackaye during a 45 minute interview conducted by me.

I appear on Polymaths' EP (and, as of last night, on Rah Rah's upcoming full-length). Please bookmark this post and return to it in eight months. You'll know why.

We must be thinking of different Polymathseseses.

Archer Goes To Jail:
A couple of years ago, The Gourds (my favorite band) came to the small, southern college town where I live. They don't have much of a  following here and only a few people showed up to see them. The bar where they played is set up to where there is a large space in the back for the main band playing that night, and a smaller space up front where some guy sets up with an acoustic and plays John Mayer covers. There ended up being around 20 people there to see The Gourds, but the other part of the bar was packed with people listening to the John Mayer cover guy.

Anyway, I showed up at the bar a few hours before they played to see if I could meet them. I ended up getting to hang out and have a couple of beers with Jimmy Smith, the bass player and one of the two main vocalist/songwriters. I don't know if anyone here has even heard of them, but they're my favorite  band and I have all eight of their albums, so it was a pretty great experience for me. I saw them a few more times in Atlanta where the place was packed out with fans and there wasn't nearly the same opportunity to meet the band.

Also: Hey everyone, I'm new. I decided I've finally lurked enough to make a post.

De_El:
I've stood round and chatted for a bit with Cass McCombs about cool and unusual guitars.  He really liked the idea of a Chapman stick but had never actually touched one.  Once talked to the guys from Head of Femur, and got some food with 'em.  Nick Westra, their bassist, started eating my fries.
Moment of glory: once did a jumping stomach-bump with Dan Deacon.
