Since I still don’t have my desktop up and running, I’ve been making room on my laptop hard drive. I found these gems: promo photos of Travis and my karaoke group, Just Duet. The whole idea, which was Travis’ brainchild, was that we’d perform a one-night-only show to open up for Inuit Jargon and Morningbell at The Shamrock.

We created this elaborate backstory: the show at The Shamrock was supposed to be the group’s last show performing together on their world-spanning, “Forever 2 Infinity Tour.”
While we performed our three-song set, we had a slide projector showing photos “from our previous tours”.
Looking back on the pictures, I just remembered that I wrote about Just Duet on my application to USC Screenwriting. I think it has something to do with why I got accepted.

Out popped a dozen people in dark windbreakers identifying them as feds -- agents from Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Some raced to the loading docks. Others hurried through the front door. All were armed.
Man, that’s really too funny. So funny it couldn’t exist…what with Soul Plane being of this realm as well.
Those photos are transcendent.
