Pearla

Friday night we went to First Ave to catch Pearla Batella (sp?) who was wonderful. Strong, sweet voice with funky rhythms. She wasn't as glamorous as I thought she would be after all the press photos and promo's but stunning none-the-less. After that we headed into the 7th Street Entry to catch Drums and Tuba on Righteous Babe Records...interesting, but I can only listen to instrumentals for so long without wanting some vocals to spice it all up. (Beethoven being the exception of course)Great weekend for music all around.

Also, I painted the guest bedroom and refinished some woodwork around the house...kinda of a Tim Allen day at the homestead.

I'm reading "Rachael's Holiday" by Marion Keyes at the moment...funny and depressing...because it's really about rehab.

Bye.
