Alex was a nurse helping veterans of the military, and murdered by the military.

My dad spent most of his career as a nurse at the same VA in Minneapolis as Alex.

He would be so angry. I am so angry.

Great show last (last?) Saturday with advantage Lucy. Used the ultra-light Arturia controller rig plugged into my laptop running MainStage and it worked a treat. Two new songs felt great, and the bust out of Glider was a lot of fun (and well received).
