“Hello

We’re weathering the days in the dark city. At present I’m in Brooklyn, where toilets flush and lights burn bright. We can see the row of the dark monoliths that constitute downtown Manhattan from here. I’ll return to my campsite on the 11th floor tomorrow, after St. Vincent and I do a song or two on Colbert <http://t.opsp.in/j0MNn> . No elevator service south of 31st St. or so, which means 11 flights with a flashlight up a dark stairway—but it’s home.

Normally, I would post a new streaming radio playlist <http://t.opsp.in/k0LLk> at midnight tonight. I was at the end stages of getting it ready when the storm hit but my office closed due to the power outage, meaning no access to the computers and software that would allow that all to happen. Doing it remotely is possible, but difficult, and hardly a priority these days. Anyway, expect that to happen as soon as the power is restored.

Stay dry.
