The blogmaster is an idiot

Sam's itinerary for the last quarter of 2009 was packed, but he fell victim to the untimely loss of months of data due to a server failure at the blogmaster's mobile telephone provider. The times and dates of Sam's live, recorded, or filmed stand-up and improvisational comedy performances are being reconstructed from social networks, voice and email, printed materials, and handwritten notes. Any new stuff is posted as it is discovered.

The end-of-the-year for Sam included stand-up dates in Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Kansas. He performed game and long form improvisation with a number of groups at the Bovine Metropolis. Sam was interviewed and appeared several times in studio and on site for internet and terrestrial radio stations based in Denver and Vail. He acted in projects for Starz, The Shoot Out 24 Hour Filmmaking Festival Boulder, and Twixter Productions. Sam also played drums in Red vs. Black and crept closer to an undergraduate degree at Metro State College.

Sam provides no direct or intentional information for this blog.
