See a shaggy early music geek, live!
Since our plans changed and we did not make it to Mexico last weekend, I did not get to see my barber in Tecate, and I have not been able to either find time for a haircut or to talk Melanie into doing it ("But I have never cut hair before other than Amalia's and do you want a haircut that looks like that?" To which I say, "pish posh! Better to look like a crude conservative than a hippy!")
So, I will be a little shaggy tonight (although it has been much much worse). If you are in the area, once again: 7:15pm at the National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi on Vallejo between Grant and Columbus in North Beach, San Francisco. I will be the shaggy idiot in the suit jabbering on about polyphony. Come ask questions. If the question and answer session demands it, it may move to Tony and Nick's later on (although I might grab a bite to eat first). Tony and Nick's is a couple of blocks down on Stockton. It is a good hole-in-the-wall that makes a great martini. Ars Nova sounds even better after a martini, or so I am told.
Meanwhile, I have to pack my bag and get my shirt ironed and all that!

I ended up trying to trim the back with my beard trimmer. I made a big mess, and no one noticed the home-made haircut, although perhaps I did not take off enough for anyone to notice a difference at all.

Jaime hates the smirks I give him while I'm cutting his hair, and our cat just runs and hides before I can get to him.
