Was lucky enough to host Joe Lansdale around town the last couple of days. Great guy, amazing writer, living legend, walking icon, Texas institution, bonified stuperstar, and all around nice guy. Anyway, below, four pics of his reading. Click on that little flash/arrow button-player thingamawhatever, too, and bam, listen to him read and discuss and just generally entertain. There may be thirty or so seconds of cluttered silence up front, but that’s just because I have no clue how to edit an audio file. This was also my first time to ever try to navigate an iPod. And this one even had an “iTalk” latched onto it like some kind of parasite. But it all seemed to work. Oh, and yeah, that foolish guy umming his way through the intro, don’t know who he could be. Just somebody who wondered into the auditorium probably, hijacked the mike for a minute or two then stumbled off into the night, trying to intro everything else he bumped into, in hopes he would someday learn how.
