Guy from Sierra Leone came up to me at the end and said he heard about the event online and came because he hadn’t made many friends in 2 years here and that’s literally why we created this event. As someone who meets new people every single day, i gotta say people need to do it more.

It also happens to be "You're Not From Here, Are You?" tonight. Our monthly event where we learn about peoples' hometowns. This month we learn about exotic places like Cedar Rapids! Flint! and Lima, Peru.

Robby Krieger is a great guitar player too. I live in LA, so I have had the privilege of seeing him play live three times. He really shines when the playing is centered around his improvisation.
