Two days, two gigs, plus random radio things.

NBD.

Last Thursday, I had the extreme pleasure of filling the Hockessin Memorial Hall with music for a couple of hours. Locally-owned business Performance Physical Therapy was celebrating their 20th anniversary. I was, of course, totally thrilled to support locally-owned business. :D Also, I definitely ran into my elementary-school principal. What a crazy feeling. Also, the lieutenant governor was there, which was snazzy as well.

On Friday, I was on the bill for Mocha, Music, and More, another local gem - sponsored by the Friends of Newark (that's Delaware), hosted at Central Perk (my favorite for CHAIIII and its late hours). I think I've wanted to play one of these for over a year, and I finally made it in! They were celebrating an anniversary, too, now that I think about it - 4 years. Good stuff!

Shane rocked both of the gigs, being all graduated and having free time and whatnot. He learned the Banana Peel Rag in about a day, and played it at Mocha, Music and More. I'd love to have a recording of it sometime soon, but I say that about a lot of things, let's be honest. Gotta choose my battles (see previous post about never having time to sit down anymore).

A crazy thing happened on Saturday, too... turns out one of the guys from My Version Of It, the band that followed me at Mocha, Music and More, has a radio talk show down in Rehoboth. He got the idea to call me after I passed out business cards at the end of the gig. Go figure.

So I get this call as I'm getting ready to go to work, and, well, you can just listen to the interview if you're so inclined.

All in all, a pretty crazy few days. Crazy good.

Incidentally, now that I'm blogging and thinking and all - I might switch to blogging at my Tumblr more. Shrug. I rediscovered it a little while ago, and it's just a ton easier to share media and short blurbs. 'Cause let's be honest, there are a dedicated few out there reading these novels, but I have not a lot of time to write them and photos and music and videos are a lot more fun. For everyone.

Just an FYI.
