Just heading back from The Ordinary Radicals screening at Cornerstone in IL.  It was so great to be back with good folks after a year of shooting, post production, screenings and festival.  Crazy how much life can progress in just 12 months, eh?
Anywhoo, Logan Laituri and Brant Russo made it out for the screening which was completely packed.  About 200 people took breaks from the hundreds of shows to see the film (we ran out of seats, picked up more seats and ran out of those too!)
I headed over to a tent that had  two great bands: our good friends Jon Felton and Soulmobile Eternal & The Illogical Spoon.  Jon and crew killed it as always and The Illogical Spoon was magical (full disclosure, I’m a bit biased as The Illogical Spoon has members of Psalters as well as Jesce Walz from The Simple Way, but they are in fact magical).  Musical love by way of beards and banjos

Special thanks to Mike Hertenstein of Flickerings and animator Steve Leeper.  Steve and friends invited me to a great film nerd meeting at the festival, Deep Focus, held after hours in the Speaker Hospitality center.  2+ hours of fantastic conversation.
So yeah, hanging out in a lovely Perkins restaurant in Peoria, IL right now typing up this missive and wondering how you’re doing.  Let us know your experiences with the film and what’s going on in your neck ‘o the woods.
Planes, trains and automobiles, go go go!
