Alex Mahan after injury (note IV drip bandage)

Launching, oh, around 11 annual reporting websites in two months inevitably leads to blog neglect. Sorry, things’ve been really busy lately.

Anyway, I turn 28 in a week, and as the above photo shows, I’m still prone to minor head injuries. Did it on the first evening of ATP at Camber Sands in East Sussex, and spent the night in A&E (that’s Accident and Emergency for you Stateside folks) getting stitched/glued up with a saline drip in my arm instead of dancing to Hot Chip DJs. Bummer.

I think this is the ninth time I’ve received stitches in my head or face, so I’m averaging roughly one head injury every three years. How I’m not a complete vegetable by now is anyone’s guess.

Still managed to see a few good bands, however. Highlights included Of Montreal, Dirty Projectors, Hot Chip, Deerhunter, Caribou, and Fuck Buttons.

Maybe I’ll put stuff on this thing more often this summer. In the meantime, there’s always Twitter for more frequent (although still banal) updates.
