tomorrow night beep goes the weasel returns to the boulevard drive in with more songs, more vegetables, and more fun! we hope you will join us at 9pm before the first movie and again during the snack bar break!

i found a new web series this morning. it launched in late april. after youtube (via google) took down all the videos on mtvclassic1 i had to find another way to warp reality. this channel is up to 6 episodes covering philosophers like zeno, sartre, and descartes.

comedians in cars getting coffee just started its fourth season four hours ago. the season premiere has jerry and his guest sarah jessica parker driving around in a 1976 station wagon. one thing that makes this show surreal is getting to hear jerry sing a new theme song off camera. if you miss seinfeld, this little web series is like seeing an old friend.

beep goes the weasel has officially launched for the summer! matt, angie, and i set up the veggies, projector, and music gear in front of the snack bar at the boulevard drive in last sunday night. we played before the first and second feature films. our project attracted mostly children. parents stood nearby with cameras to capture the moment. looking forward to our next date on june 29th!

the anticipation for the first beep goes the weasel is starting to feel like an old commercial from the 1970′s. last night we had a successful practice at the boulevard drive in as a train went by, and a full moon rose above the trees. only 3 more days until we turn into robots and start wiring up vegetables!

it was great to be back out on the sidewalk at 18th and baltimore for mondo beep last night. we met kurt, ricardo, brent’lee’s sister susan, and some folks who didn’t speak english. everyone loved playing the carrots. old friends also stopped by: jenny, roz, brent’lee, kristen, ross, kate, and mattie. we also passed out fliers for beep goes the weasel to promote our june 15 & 29 dates @ the boulevard drive in.

the latest weather reports show that thunderstorms are going to hold off until midnight, so that means mondo beep will be back on 18th and baltimore tonight for first fridays! we’ll have the usual mix of handheld synths, circuit bent toys, and musical veggies. i will also be handing out fliers for beep goes the weasel. our 2014 rocket grants project just received funding last night!

may is over, and june couldn’t be more filled up unless henry fonda was driving it to california. if the forecasted isolated storms can isolate somewhere else,  i’ll be out on the sidewalk a few steps east of 18th and baltimore this first friday for mondo beep. under the rocket sorta. and speaking of rockets… june 15 and 29 @ 9:00pm beep goes the weasel is coming to the boulevard drive in!
