A funky New Orleans-style brass band just paraded down the sidewalk outside our apartment. I think they’re probably Mama Digdown’s Brass Band, a local group. They had quite a number of people walking and dancing along behind them. Alas, if I didn’t have reeds to make and journal articles to read, I’d grab my camera, rush down, and follow them, too. There’s always so much cool stuff going on in this town. It’s kind of a shame that I’m aware of all of it because I came here for school, yet school keeps me so busy that I don’t get to participate in as much of it as I’d like. Ah, well — c’est la vie.
I Love Madison
