Trial starts on December 7th, I believe. Dude's out on bail right now. I *certainly* don't condone street justice ....

There's a memorial scheduled sometime after Thanksgiving for the family and there will be a party to celebrate Jared's life sometime next summer.

Obviously there will be a heap of medical bills the family has to deal with since Jared was in the ICU for almost a month. The degenerate piece of shit that hit him didn't have a license, or insurance. If you'd like to help the family out, they set up a trust with US Bank that you can contribute to. It's the "Jared Sletager Family Trust"

"The SXSW Special Jury Award winning "The Way We Get By" is a deeply moving film about life and how to live it. Beginning as a seemingly idiosyncratic story about troop greeters - a group of senior citizens who gather daily at a small airport to thank American soldiers departing and returning from Iraq, the film quickly turns into a moving, unsettling and compassionate story about aging, loneliness, war and mortality.

When its three subjects aren't at the airport, they wrestle with their own problems: failing health, depression, mounting debt. Joan, a grandmother of eight, has a deep connection to the soldiers she meets. The sanguine Jerry keeps his spirits up even as his personal problems mount. And the veteran Bill, who clearly has trouble taking care of himself, finds himself contemplating his own death. Seeking out the telling detail rather than offering sweeping generalizations, the film carefully builds stories of heartbreak and redemption, reminding us how our culture casts our elders, and too often our soldiers, aside. More important, regardless of your politics, "The Way We Get By" celebrates three unsung heroes who share their love with strangers who need and deserve it."



here is the preview...

jared passed at 6:42 pm on saturday. he was at peace and surrounded by family and friends.

this has wrenched my heart in every fucking direction. the whole thing is fucked. bad shit happens to good people and i will never understand it.

the world is overpopulated. prolonged by the wims of evil men. daylight savings time is directly responsible for our convenient consumer way of life. human beings are not in touch with the heartbeat of this earth. i am going to explode. the meek shall not inherit the earth.

it's true! i am obsessed with women.

ian lombardi committed suicide.

jared is getting pulled off life support unless it already happened last night which they were afraid would be the case.

fuck last night. except for colonies...who were very good despite bad sound system.

i am off to load some band called all time low @ the showbox.

the world never ends.

bye.

stage managed a show at neumos last night. headliner was called a fine frenzy. i don't think these recorded tracks even come close to how compelling and adorable their live show was. recorded it sounds way to produced and 103.7 the mountain. think karen o singing and playing keys for blondie but way mellow. her band switched instruments alot and were playing banjos and glockenspiel and slide guitar. singer was so cute and was so energetic.

support was a singer song writer named landon pigg. live they reminded me of a less poetic wilco and maybe semisonic or the fray.

among the oak and ash opened. they were just a banjo and 2 guitars and played southern gospel style folk. the banjo player looked like jason clackley with a bigger beard and it made me feel like i was on the bayou. these recorded songs seem to have a full band though and arent very interesting.

also i have been playing music with this band for a month or so. jon is an old friend and it's just been nice to find an escape from an ordinarily oppressive schedule. when it was proposed to me they told me it sounded like mae, anberlin and old jimmy eat world. there is a cello player and a very talented keyboardist. it's not entirely what i am looking for but its such a good group of guys and every practice ends up as a drunken ordeal trying to make it out of the basement. more to come on this later.
