On How'd You Get There, Dancer Audrey Ellis?

I too grew up on a corn farm in Upstate NY (Wayne County, holla!). It's so badass to see somebody using their family's farm in such an innovative way.

On The Masters, As An Augusta Townie

This reads like an Anne Rivers Siddons book.

Telling that the only Black people we saw in this story were disembodied hand serving beer.

On The Scourge Of Pour-Over Coffee

@bocadelperro This may be the most nauseatingly WC comment thread I have ever read. "Confused as to what was meant by local" is super-Portlandia.

On Throwing Muses, Live on Tour

Have any of you read Kristin Hersh's memoir, Ratgirl? It's a really good read.

On Dressing Up My Boyfriend As Marc Anthony In His Terrible Kohl's Clothes

1. WTF goes on in Nevada City? It seems like one of those weird places out West I drove through on my Epic Road Trip. I would imagine a lot of weed smoking/growing, but what else?

2. Marc Anthony is like a real-deal Puerto Rican singer. I have a friend that's PR and she is way into him. I was suprised to learn this. He sings traditional stuff, not cheesy soft radio music,

3. This story was so funny.

On Why Yoga Can Be So Irritating (Although You Should Go Anyway!)

Can this be re-titled "Why the West Coast Can Be So Irritating." I had a pretty hard-core yoga practice in NYC (Jivamukti, The Shala, Dharma Mittra [if you must know]) and none of this shit happened in my classes.

As for chive crotch, you were at the Oregon Country Faire. Duh.

*I consider myself uniquely qualified to comment on this post bc I left Brooklyn for a teeny hippie village amongst the redwoods in Norcal (where hitchhiking was still a valid means of transpo and people would blast Jefferson Airplane in the grocery store. The only thing to do in the town was see the Gratful Dead cover band once a week. I had spun out old hippie lady ask me about the resposnibilities associated w. being the eyes of the world.) I hightailed it back to Brooklyn after Norcal hippie reality hit me.
