While I've been trying to figure out how to be in two places at once, I haven't got the kinks worked out yet, so we missed a significant portion of the Moonalice celebration at Slim's in order to enjoy dinner and a show with Pat Nevins and friends in Oakland first. The little bit of Moonalice that we heard – we didn't walk in til the ending head section of Coconut Wireless – was awful darn good, and I suggest that you go watch it right now – an excellent video of the entire show is posted on the Moonalice website!
