Once a week for the last year I’ve been taking a day off work to spend with Boy Z – Boy Z and Papa Party Days. I’ve done it regardless of work obligations, choosing to arrange work around Party Days rather than Party Days around work. These days are like oases in the work week. [...]

New Wilco, upcoming Wilco and near Wilco
Well, A Free Man is going to have a little more free time available (I’ll get to that post soon, I promise). One of the things I’d like to do with that free time is to get back to more frequent music blogging. So, let’s get started with that, shall we?
