Hey there, sorry for the spammy type message...

Just wanted to let you know that The Mountain Goats will be appearing at a benefit concert in Brooklyn this Friday, May 16th (aka... tomorrow night). All proceeds go to AIDS Walk NY. I'm a huge fan, and am part of the group organizing the show. There are just a few tickets left so I want to make sure that all the fans know about it before it sells out. Please come out & tell your friends.

John Oliver (The Daily Show) and Rock Plaza Central will play as well! Don't miss it!

Here's the Ticket Web site where you can buy tickets:

Let me know if you have any questions at all.

Thanks so much!

I just got that message too! It would have been way cooler if Angela had at least acknowledged the Fraggle Rock movie but whatever.

I'm assuming that there's some question behind this question, so I'll wait for that.

I think you might be required to have your own bindle.

[bethje]

Bindles are for hobos. Hobos are homeless, but not all homeless people are hobos.

[bollix]

Homeless means that you don't contribute to your own household economy. So you might live in someone else's house for free, but as long as you do chores 'n' stuff, you are not homeless.

I think.

What's a bindle?

[quinnqueasy]

Homeless, or homeyless?

I constitute homeless as:
Not living in a location that requires rent or mortgage, save friend's houses and relatives.
Or, unable to afford accomodations for sleeping more amenable than your car for more than 1 month, including limited access to hygienic facilities.

Or, choosing to live off the grid in a tent without having any medium-term alternative housing possibilities.
