Do you have a plan to vote?
Let us tell you the information you need to register and cast a ballot in D.C.
I met Chris Lombardi once. Back in 07 I was helping some friends from Australia, who were then signed to Matador, the label he co-founded, get around the United States. When the tour came through New York City the label invited us to stop by the office for a visit. We dropped in for about half an hour—-about as long as we could afford to rent a parking spot in Manhattan—-shook hands, grabbed some CDs, and split.
Given the brevity of this encounter, I can’t claim to know much about the guy. However, were I to set up a Fake Michael Bay—style Twitter account for him based on first impressions and trivial details—he had a jar of formaldehyde on his desk with a coiled rattlesnake inside—-it would probably revolve around slurred words, fine dining, and pharmaceuticals.
In other worlds, it would be much like this actual Twitter account, which a friend passed along to me today. I guess this could be a hoax, but who else would brag about drinking a nice Côte de Beaune AND be Twitter friends with John Agnello? Seems pretty convincing.
