In case you wondered why I brought my Danelectro guitar to PAX instead of my acoustic, it's because the case for the acoustic has been temporarily repurposed:

PAX was amazing, it was lovely to see folks there!

Today, I received the visit of a distinguished mammal: Fairfax the Bunny showed up at my doorstep to say hi and to fill me in on some of the stuff I missed at PAX.

Fairfax belongs to a baby girl named Marissa. Marissa was diagnosed with a little-known condition called Infantile Spasms, and so Fairfax travels to different places to raise awareness about the disease.

I decided to treat Fairfax to some fries at one of my favorite joints, Charlie's Kitchen in Harvard Square:

After lunch, we practiced a little tune together (yes, some people looked at us kinda strange, but fuck 'em.)

It turns out Fairfax is a decent glockenspiel player.

So we put together a quick little instrumental which you can check out here.

This is Marissa's website, where you can send her warm wishes, cold cash, and where you can even get your very own Fairfax.
