It was nice meeting 43T folks across the country on this latest Maktub tour. An interesting, articulate group of people for sure. My impression is that 43T (or at least this specific goal) attracts people who are engaged and motivated to connect their online and offline worlds. Which is saying a lot.
I may have missed a couple of the people who showed up at shows, but in general I was able to connect and say hello. Thanks for coming out and supporting the band—and the site for that matter.
I’m in San Francisco today, headed for my final show in Portland, OR. I’ll be back in the office this week. Bye.

Though very briefly and in a very loud bar. Iota, for those not familiar with it, is a local club in Arlington, Virginia. They feature indie bands and is a favorite for locals and even DC residents when they dare to cross the river. The set started out with Scratch Track, a beat-box/guitar back band. Very entertaining and enthusiastic band. The crowd was at near capacity by the time Maktub went on stage. The sound crew did a wonderful job. Lights and everything! The band seemed to have a good time and the audience as well. I’m really glad I made this one of my 43 Things. I wish all of them a lot of success. Go hear them when they come. You will not regret it!

Maktub rocks. I’m a new huge fan. I might have to start touring with the band. Anyone want to come?
Thanks, Daniel!

although I will undoubtably be there anyway I am just curious if this offer is good for the June 3rd show in Bellingham? It be cool to give you guys props and shake a hand or two.

Maktub is … a terrific band! Met Daniel Spils and ‘Chicago Outfit’. Definitely worth doing ;-)

Whaddya say we all follow Maktub on tour around the country? We’ll sell grilled cheese sandwiches, wear tye dyes, use recreational drugs and promote free love. Now if only we had a clever name…

That’s not a threat, it’s a promise!
