Almost there. Even at 50 tomorrow morning a jacket might be too much for the day for me. Soon!
50s is perfect for me for the Valstarino, these types of days I’ll wear it for the walk from car to office in the am, and carry if necessary in the afternoon.

Next week looks even better than this week, at least the beginning of the week.

I actually wore a suit to work and didn't arrive feeling like I’d jumped in the pool. A welcome change! Itching to try out new Pvt White coat but may have to wait a bit.

It's going to have to be like some of the higher end shops in NYC that buzz you in and out.

I always said it should be, but they’re smashing the windows. They don’t come into the store.

That’s quite a hike for using Fox brothers! Do they do cmt? Or does it have to be with their fabrics?

The fabric looks nice though!

Yeesh, Fox is nice but that jacket costs as much as or more than the Row commission I'm about to do.

How was the DC show? I refuse to go to concerts at Capitoll

I thought about going, but the acoustics are usually pretty bad. Both shows were good?
I also like smaller venues but not an option with ELO. 12 musicians in stage. Seeing Neko Case tonight at Strathmore. All my fav artists have aged out of the 9:30 Club unfortunately.

Glad to hear the acoustics were good! I've seen too many arena shows that sound awful, so I mostly avoid. I have some NPR customers and got to go to my first Tiny Desk recently, which has more intimate acoustics as you might expect. Really cool experience.

So far Strathmore is an awful venue for anything but a Classical music concert. Ugh. It’s like a church. IMG_9332.jpeg

I was just there on Saturday for Meshell Ndegeocello and it was a packed house.
Tonight it’s full of folks who might need a defib at any moment. Man, I miss the Anthem!
