CSNY
Music: Buckcherry
Book: The Pleasure is all mine
Weird memoire from a professional submission. Interesting none the less. Skipped out on CSNY last night playing Xcel, but my parents came to the show and had a blast. Drove by the new house my husband and I bought , but we can't move in until October. *Sigh* It is soooo hot and humid I am re-evaluating a trip to India next year. Good lord! Heading off to Cleveland soon for my god-nephews baptism. Should be quite the family affair. Celebrated my birthday last week on a boat - great view of the city. Bye for now.... Oh and Chadly and I have an offer for a few state fair shows which we are evaluting as I write - I'll keep everybody posted.

Pink
Music: Buckcherry
Book: The Expected One - Kathleen McGowan (advance copy)
Saw PINK at first ave last night and she was spectacular. It's a rarity for a performer to be bigger and better live than on the cd. She was gracious and entertaining and just ON. Great show, I would go back again in a heart beat. Now it looks like we're trying to see Tom Waits in Akron Ohio during August - we'll see if we can make this happen....

Holiday
Music: Joe Cocker
Book: Light in Shadow - no idea it was a discount book at Borders
Happy Holiday weekend as we celebrate July 4th. I enjoyed the Tom Petty concert at Xcel way too much this week. His songs are cute and catchy - I don't even own a CD, but I knew everything he played! And to experience 18,000 people singing along with a performer on stage is a unique event. He didn't do a single thing except stand there with a guitar in hand in front of the mic (oh wait, he shook a morraca spelling?? for a song) But he was enchanting - no fake enthusiasm or "Hello Saint Paul!" crap. Just honest to goodness music. Quite a treat.
Things keep falling into place for the September 29th live recorded show at the Mabel Tainter - I can't wait! Chadly and I have a few rehearsals planned as we roll out a bit of new music and....I think that's about it. Have a safe and happy holiday.

Hiya
Music: Joe Cocker - I Can Stand a Little Rain
Book: Caleb Carr - new one in paperback, can't wait
I remember the Alienist blowing mind mind away in college...it was a story unlike any I had heard before but the writing was hypnotic. Now I get to enjoy Carr's new novel. Mr. Husband and I made an offer on a gorgeous house in Wisconsin last night - hopefully we get it, if not, I guess we build. This process is insane. No shows this weekend but I am looking forward to the rain. My pets are curled up beside me and we have a lovely get together planned with friends in Prior Lake tonight. Good weekend all in all....

Hot
Music: kt tungstall
Book: once an angel
Wonderful house concert last night at Parlor Parties hosted by CollectedSounds in Minneapolis. Got to hear Gregory Douglass - spectacular song writer with a beautful voice. Shopping for organic goods earlier in the day I threw out something near my tailbone so I've been lounging in bed with ice packs THE WHOLE DAMN WEEKEND. Its getting better-I think. Made for quite the interesting show. Back up dancers have never been my forte but let's just say I played as still as possible so not to upset my spinal chord - thankfully my roadie husband was along and hefted me and my guitar around with minimal amounts of laughter. Sold some CDs, had some snacks and a lovely Saturday night in Minneapolis. Now if only Pro Floors would come and install my new doors, Mr. Husband and I could move along with putting our house on the market and heading back to Wisconsin. Summer is looking more stressful by the minute - but change is always good. Happy Fathers day to al the dad's out there....
