I'm really excited because I just got confirmation that in late November I'll be sharing a stage with a long-time RM favorite musician / meme, interviewing them at a conference

Guess who it is

Now you're all gonna be disappointed when you find out who it is. Ting Tings is the closest guess but not them, definitely more of a "local favorite." Anyway I'll post a photo when it happens
