Since first meeting Josh Johnson when the two worked at Farm Bloomington restaurant, Alex Ashkin has watched him become one of the city’s premier events and entertainment coordinators. Johnson struck out on his own to produce punk rock shows in Bloomington and has branched out to conceive and produce all kinds of nightlife events.
