A friend posted this great non-partisan resource to help you learn about politicians and ballot measures in your area. Please get out there and vote, and go in there with a little knowledge about the people on the ballot.

Need help getting to the pools? Uber and Lyft are offering discounted and even free rides, or try this free app from WomenVotes called Carpool2Vote. I have not tried this personally, but found it online, looked it over, and it seems like they have put mechanisms in place to protect everyone’s safety. I’m going to sign up in the next couple days, assuming I can get my car clean enough to allow strangers!

Get out there and vote, everyone. No matter whom you support, your vote counts!

“Lombardi” opens at the Racine Theatre Guild on October 19, and runs for three weekends through November 4. I am playing legendary Green Bay Packers halfback Paul Hornung. He was known to the public as The Golden Boy, but his teammates referred to him as Horn or Goat. A member of the Pro Football and Packers Hall of Fames, he set records that still stand today.

This is a challenging role, as I’ve never played a non-fictional character before. The play itself is fiction, following the exploits of crack reporter Mike McCormick as he follows the 1965 Packers in an effort to write a piece on the larger than life Vince Lombardi.

What attracted me to this play was the fact that it will be seen by a lot of people who might not be regular theater fans, and I’m excited by the idea of performing for a new audience.

Call 262-633-4218 for tickets, or point your browser to the Guild’s website.

If you see the show, feel free to come down to the Green Room afterwards and say hi!

As I do more theater and art along with my band and my day job, it is becoming more and more apparent that I need some sort of central online presence where interested parties can find me. Well, I already have the space, I just need to fill it with content and perform periodic upkeep. Simple, right? We’ll see, said the blind man…

Please check out my Insta and Twitter. I keep my Facebook private, so only friend me if you’re a friend. If you need to reach me for any reason, send me a note at rainydaymatt at gmail.
