I was doing a little cleaning yesterday. Found some interesting stuff.

Exhibit A: Discs, drivers, software, backup discs etc. from the first non-Mac I purchased:

Interestingly only because earlier in that day, at the firm’s company meeting, the man was on stage talking about how you used to install Word by putting in 10 different floppy disks. Remember that?

Exhibit B: My backstage pass when I worked at Bumbershoot. 1998. I worked in the trailer that oversaw “Escorts”, in other words the transportation of musicians to and from the venue, airport, hotels, etc. Lots of bands, but I remember seeing close-up: Bonnie Raitt, Joan Baez, and had to talk on the phone with some obnoxious guy from 311 … maybe the manager, whatev. I saw a groupie waiting backstage for Jethro Tull. Um. Gross.

I didn’t get it, but one of the drivers got Ed from Live to autograph my badge. I just had to look up on Wikipedia what is last name was. Ed Kowalczyk.
