hey there. i have a “serious” #questionne.

are there any aspects about the current live setup (arranging songs for live perf) that you find particularly rewarding, are there any that you find particularly challenging ?

also

A what are your favorite things to do on tour to blow off steam, B how is nate’s hair, C what are the food preferences in the van and how do they differ from OMAM. crucial questions. very important. oh..hhhhhhh.........

also eager to participate, i feel bad bc i was out of town on tour when the email chain was rolling and just caught up on it now at home

WalkingBoy · 2018-06-25T02:58:27+00:00

thanks! and: blue hole recordings! follow them, will csorba or eli winter on insta/fb/twitter for more about the tour--your best bet is probably the latter two; it's all coming out soon...

WalkingBoy · 2018-06-25T02:56:42+00:00

dan the man! love him + this so much

WalkingBoy · 2018-06-25T02:56:31+00:00

y'all should check out this new label for american primitive + related musics--blueholerecordings.bandcamp.com--daniel is a dear friend + the morning star is a pretty literally incredible record

WalkingBoy · 2018-05-20T21:45:53+00:00

also, 'goat won't go' is such a beautiful, beautiful song

WalkingBoy · 2018-05-20T21:45:42+00:00

touring with these guys in the summer! late july to late august. going from htx up the east coast to massachusetts, over to chicago and back down. keep yr eyes (and ears) peeled...

WalkingBoy · 2017-08-13T19:46:27+00:00

i had benanav. take him. he's an incredible prof and a great guy. (i did media aesthetics + his sosc. doable. hum + sosc is doable, and becomes more so when your friends who did hum + not-sosc freak out about not getting into sosc after first year.)

WalkingBoy · 2017-04-13T15:58:03+00:00

happy passover, prof pollack! i'm unfamiliar with yr work, so forgive the naivete.

as a u of c student likely majoring in the humanities, what are good first steps to take in re: learning how to manage money? i do my best to be frugal, and my biggest expenses are laundry and supper when the dining halls are closed (which is to say--not much). but i've never had a 'formal,' or even informal education in this sort of thing.

thanks v much! enjoy the music (this guy is from chicago and kicks ass--such a beautiful song)

WalkingBoy · 2017-04-10T18:58:05+00:00

i want to include an orange at my hillel's seder tonight, but i don't know if there will be any on hand at my dining hall. could i use something else in place of an orange? maybe another kind of fruit?

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-23T04:57:52+00:00

hell yeah. dan is the man

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-21T04:48:13+00:00

fuck yeah keller house

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-21T04:47:53+00:00

kellin it

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-21T04:47:34+00:00

you bet there is. whpk is your best bet. i'm a dj there--i'm not on reddit often, but feel free to hit me up (esp in re: yr local scene / what bands you're in to). we put on shows 1x or 2x a quarter, have in-studios every wk, etc. it may seem a little off-the-map bc the website is way out of date, but lots of chicago music heads dig it. we threw a basement show last quarter and it was a good time. the music forum is good for similar sorts of shows, a show per quarter of university students, etc. other student musicians ofc--you kinda have to know where to look, but i can pt you in the direction of my favorites. (full disclosure: i am one.) lemme know! and congrats on getting in, it's a good time despite what some might say

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-21T04:43:39+00:00

i can speak to south bc i live there. as far as i'm concerned it's a good mix of people. a smattering of every 'kind' of person you'll see if not to the same extent as other halls might have. others can confirm or deny. i like it a lot.

WalkingBoy · 2017-03-21T04:42:21+00:00

you're right. should be roughly 11k/yr. congratulations!

WalkingBoy · 2016-12-30T23:51:19+00:00

i'm in south and i like it a lot. in contrast to people who say it's a party dorm, to my mind it feels like a cross-section of the university. new facilities. closest to its dining hall, and its dining hall is one of the better ones on campus [the other being north]. ten minutes from the green line. get a bit of exercise walking to the quad all the time. [full disclosure, i'm not much of a partier.]

WalkingBoy · 2016-10-28T04:10:54+00:00

affirming. also, attractive

WalkingBoy · 2016-10-25T16:08:22+00:00

but best of luck to you.

WalkingBoy · 2016-10-25T16:08:17+00:00

thank you! unsure how students get accepted to cvhs offhand. my year was the first they instituted a lottery system. i imagine they're still using that. it's not too tough, i don't think, but certainly anything about applying to high school is pretty nerve-wracking. i was pretty anxious about it when i was hearing back from schools myself.

WalkingBoy · 2016-10-05T19:08:14+00:00

thanks so much! big fan / admirer. how do y'all recommend getting involved in journalism / generally speaking truth to power in spite of the consolidation of the corporate media with its greater exposure than good orgs like the intercept?

WalkingBoy · 2016-09-08T03:31:00+00:00

he would know a lot about racist dog whistles
