Worked all night at Fohr Card HQ. I rubbed my burning eyes and watched past my computer screen as the sky turned from oil black, to blue, to pink. I sat there and thought not about weariness but instead about the blessing that is working on something you love.

We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of mine and give our order. While we’re aproaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter:
‘Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended’ They pay for their order, take the two and leave.

I ask my friend: “What are those ‘suspended’ coffees?”
My friend: “Wait for it and you will see.”

Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four ‘suspended’. While I still wonder what’s the deal with those ‘suspended’ coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square infront of the café. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in throught the door and kindly asks
‘Do you have a suspended coffee ?’

It’s simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who can not afford a warm bevarage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwitch or a whole meal.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such cafés or even grocery stores in every town where the less fortunate will find hope and support ? If you own a business why don’t you offer it to your clients… I am sure many of them will like it.

Back a few years ago when the Sydney Harbour Bridge still had toll booths, I used to always pay for the person behind me.

I was pretty sad when they took out the toll booths, I’m really happy this kind of thing is gaining popularity!

We Were Lovers Talk About Their Upcoming Album, Pyramids, and Why They Decided To Become A Duo

Fri, 22 Mar 2013 02:03:32 -0400

Ash Lamothe and Else Gebremichael have been making music together for years, but they haven’t molded their project into what each of them really wanted until recently. After a number of member changes, the two decided that they were tired of trying to make a full band work and moved forward as a two-piece. In this incarnation, We Were Lovers have been able to flourish and take form as a more electronic-based dance outfit—exactly what the duo envisioned…

I met the five members of The Weeks outside Austin’s Convention Center on Red River Street across from Moonshine Patio Bar and Grill. Immediately, I know which group they are despite the congested crowds weaving through the sidewalk.

SXSW: Shakey Graves, Great Peacock, Ivan and Alyosha, The Lonely Wild

Sun, 17 Mar 2013 15:44:21 -0400

As Saturday arrived, we could feel tension of the end approaching. All the friends we’d made bouncing from showcase to showcase were about to go home - off to start recording, back to real jobs on Monday, back on the road. For six days, SXSW has breed one full family of music enthusiasts. It’s been a whirlwind. It’s been a treat.
