Material (Index) serves coffee and sells things. It’s what you might call a “small business” though the term feels somehow distasteful. Sometimes we make things and maybe we’ll sell those too. Maybe not. We are going to wait and see. It’s good to be patient. Waiting builds character.
We’re open weekends and some weekdays in the town of Rockland, sometimes on a porch. But even when we’re not on a porch there is a kind of porch-y vibe. We aspire for there to be a breeze to the whole endeavor, you know? The kind of place you might see a dog named Norma Jean just kind of laze about. You’ll like it, it’s nice.
You should feel free to come say hi, have a coffee, and talk to us about any number of things. Here are some recurring topics we talk about: how many miles constitute a long run, whether or not Michael Hurley is a “folk” musician, the ongoing thrill of Mosel riesling, drones (neither the flying kind nor the bomb kind), psychic data, Psychic TV, baseball as a road to god, plywood, and Peter Falk’s performance in Wings of Desire.
Bob is the one with long hair. You’ll see him most days. However, Material (Index) is not one, but many. In fact, there’s three of us. The two non-Bobs have significantly less hair on their heads. Justin often wears a shirt that says “Cold Beer” on it from the excellent bar “E-Z Inn” on Western Ave. in Chicago. David almost exclusively wears blue Oxford cloth button downs. We are glad you came.
