Wow!
What a night! I’d like to quickly thank everybody who came out to the Starry Plough last night. I’m positive that the show wouldn’t have done as well without so many good friends bringing the energy to the place. I had a lot of fun, and I hope you did too.
And to the people who are expecting video footage, well, I’m very sorry! Ahhh! I’m sorry! Okay? Sorry. There...
So earlier today I had a discussion with my mom about where I would live if I were to move to New York in a few months. She told me that her boss has a son-in-law who is somehow connected to a basement apartment in the city. And that this apartment is located below a house rented out by Kate Hudson. CRAZY, right? Okay, not really. But I then had a pretty silly daydream about what my life would be like for those first few days meeting/being best friends with Kate Hudson. Later, I told my friend Zina all about it:
Zina: Whaaat?
You guys should date.
And then you can break into Hollywood
Riley: Yeah then the rest of the car ride home after my mom told me that
I was thinking about how that would work.
Zina: hahaha
Riley: like we'd meet and she'd really like that I wasn't too familiar with her career
Like I wasn't a crazy fan, but I knew who she was
and then we would get along and she would be like "what music were you listening to the other night?"
Zina: Haha
Riley: And then she would take me to this party, but beforehand she would warn me that there might be a lot of famous people there, and I shouldn't flip out and we can leave whenever.
but then I meet the guitarist from the Strokes!
and we get along and he likes my youtubes
Zina: fabrizio?
Riley: Albert.
Zina: Angilico?
Riley: ALBERT
and I think that's where the fantasy ended
Oh also I turn down cocaine multiple times
and Kate appreciated that, even though she admits to indulging at the party.
So, yeah. That would be great if this ends up happening.
Update!
Thanks to the good folks at Disqus.com, RobotRiley.com now supports comments! So, if you like a particular post, go ahead and tell me about it. I’d really like to know if anyone out there reads this dang thing. Or don’t. I’m still going to update. I know I’ll be reading.
Robot Riley's SPACE ADVENTURE VARIETY SHOW
TUESDAY, APRIL 29
“Come see Robot Riley, Finbar Hagerty-Hammond and Randit perform music and talk about space! Through some odd twist of fate, three young, talented performers (2 great musicians and a rising internet superstar going through an identity crisis) were asked to put together an act for the coveted featured time slot for the open mic night at Berkeley’s Starry Plough pub!...
In the works.
I made a new video last night with the intention of posting it as a Facebook exclusive for my little fanclub. The problem is, I like the video so much that I might just post this one on my YouTube channel in a day or two. The OTHER problem is that I’m planning on making a new video today to post tomorrow. So this means I have to decide to either release two videos on one day, or release one...

Let's get bloggin'!
Okay okay okay. I just got back from a completely awesome two week New York vacation. I spent the first week up at Bard College, and the second week in the city. All in all, it was probably the most action packed, hilarious, fun trip of my little life. In short, I:
-Partied.
-Sprained my knee.
-Partied on crutches.
-Saw some sweet shows.
-Ate hot dogs.
-Walked from 77th street to 12th...
