A friend of mine recently mentioned that I rarely write about anything personal in this blog. Well, this is pretty personal -- I am playing bass for a show tonight at Black Betty in Williamsburg.

I am writing about this at the last minute because I am nervous about my first show in NYC and don't need the additional pressure.

I will write about my experience later. It will either be really funny or really sad. Maybe both.

Ife is the other half of Sweetie, a band who's EP release party show I reviewed back in June. Ife's grandmother is artist Elizabeth Catlett.
