I've moved!
I mean both that I have relocated to a new home and also that I finally fought off some inertia and made a series of coordinated physical motions. The first means I am now no longer a resident of Minneapolis. Now I live in St. Paul. Gone are my Minneapolis ways. Now I possess that certain ephemeral St. Paul-ness. Less obnoxious punk. More cranky old guy.

The second means that my web site is updated. In particular, it is updated to reflect my exciting upcoming shows at the Bryant-Lake Bowl! I'm doing three different one-man shows this spring. The first, in March, is a remount of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Rats in the Walls", my show from the 2006 Fringe. In April, I'm restaging my Fringe show from 2005, Michigan Disasters. And finally, May will feature a new one-man show, Cannibals are Cooking by Mark Steven Jensen!

Speaking of Fringe related things, I got my application in relative early this time around. Very St. Paul of me. Lottery is Feb. 11th. I'd originally wanted a late-night slot, but one of many changes this year was the elimination of the late-night shows. It seems the Fringe too is getting a little more cranky old guy, and a little less obnoxious punk. The last embers of the Visual Fringe seem to have been extinguished. Bring your own venues are now limited to ten performances. Sigh. Things ain't what they used to be.

Sounds great! Did you buy a place in St. Paul?

So, a friend of mine wouldn't forgive me if I didn't ask...

Will you be recording these for eventual CD/DVD sales?

Well, for sale, no.

For archival purposes, probably. Tony Karna put together a nice video recording from the Fringe run of Rats, and if someone really wanted a copy, a few emails could probably make that happen. But, you know, live performances often seem so empty and hollow when watched/heard on tape.

Which is fair. It's something he asks me to ask you every time I tell him we're heading to one of your shows. Which is convuluted enough. Still, he was a huge fan of Michigan Disasters, and I know he really wants to see 10000 Comic Books.


I'm looking forward to the shows, especially the new one. Although seeing Michigan Disasters again will be excellent too. I know a few people who want to see that one since I told them about it after Fringe a few years ago.
