As Far As I Can Tell

I’m in Bowling Green, Ohio at the Allied Media Conference and don’t currently have Internet access from the dorm room I’m staying in. I’ve been told I can get it, and if you’re reading this, then I guess it worked out. I’m excited about all the good sessions on the schedule. I’ll try to make posts throughout the weekend to let you know how it’s going.

I’ve arrived in town and eaten dinner at Squeaker’s, a local vegetarian/vegan restaurant. The place is okay, but the food is a little on the generic side. Most of the items you could make yourself by buying veggie-meats and cheap produce at the grocery story. It also has that odd aura in the vein of Victory’s Banner or Alice and Friends. It’s kind of cult-like, overly friendly, yet oddly generic feeling. Much like the aforementioned places the decor is really lacking and the lighting is glaringly fluorescent. As I ate I listened to two men, one an amputee, play reggae and well known folk songs done reggae style.

I’m going to rest a bit and then head downtown to the kickoff show starring the always entertaining Ted Leo/Pharmacists.
