Thank God, or Lucia, for the current. Had to post this qucick, tough to get a jump around here anymore.

Glory Be…they saved the best for last….it’s so exciting and wonderful to see the Twilights appear in so many shows….Does disappear really mean appear more frequently…..??????

Why haven’t I already moved to Minnesota…that’s the real question…...and “because I’m sane” just won’t work anymore…...

Now that is cool!  What a way to wrap up Labor Day Weekend!

Anybody checking out Dessa and Brother Ali today/tonight at the Uptown/Pizza Luce block party?  I will be coming and going, but intend to check out those two.  If Dessa does Dixon’s Girl complete with bassoon or BA does Fresh Air, it will be worth the crowds, and heat, and humidity.  Besides, it will be a good night for a dip in Harriet on the way home.

If you’ve heard Dixon’s Girl and think you might like Dessa, but aren’t sure about the whole hip-hop thing, check her out!  Beautiful voice, tremendous stage presence, and such wit.  Great show.  Brother Ali in half an hour.  Can’t wait.

And, and!  Who was just wandering around the grounds but Jacques Wait!!!  He played a set while I was away for dinner.  He’s in a band called Pink Mink.  Who knew??!!

Oooooh…ooohhhh I knew!  I saw some band photos taken in front of the rusty old Brackett Park playground rocket a block and a half from my house!  Brownie points for me?

Rats.  When I read this, I assume they were playing the grandstand.
