Der Brucer and I saw Jason Graae live at the Cinegrill.  Yes, that particular night, when the recording was made.  (It was also the first time der Brucer and I met BK...well, the first time we met knowing it was BK and he knowing who we were...but that's another story.)

Good Afternoon!

Well, I ended up having a nice couple of hours of domesticity - I guess that's one way to put it.

I washed the dishes, wiped down the counters and stovetop.  Then proceeded to clean the shower, sink, basin and the floor in the bathroom.  :)

-I have a feeling Nick and Graham might not recognize the place when they get back tonight.  ;)

But, it was fun cleaning, and just taking my time with it.  I'll be heading out in a few to run some errands and grab a bite to eat before heading in for tonight's show.

So...

Do you think this sort of ad would work on craigslist.org:

-Moving to New York.  Will Clean for Room.

???

;D

Oh... And as "luck" would have it, my other usual spring gig in DC just called...  The current keyboard player isn't working out...

Ah, well...

Concerts, well, I guess the most memorable would be the Michael Ball concert I attended in SLC last year.

DRMATTH - Van Cliburn.....did they hawk souvenirs?  Books or photos?

Souvenir programs and LPs as I recall, but that's been a LONG, LONG time ago.

Yep, I saw Judy Garland in 1965, and sad to say she was in very hoarse voice that night. She struggled and apologized over and over about how poorly she was singing (she appeared here in 1961 and was a sensation, but I didn't see her then). Glad I got to see her live once in my life, but now I'm just glad I have her entire set of TV programs to see her in her latter day prime.

DARBY O'GILL is a great film to choose for tonight, DR Ron. If I hadn't watched it a month ago, I would have picked it for tonight myself.

We DEFINATELY have puppies in the house.  They have been wrassling all afternoon...underneath der Brucer's bed.  And they've been having a wonderful time, from the sounds they've been making.  Every once in a while, der B has joined in with a booming "CUT THE NOISE, I CAN'T HEAR THE TV!!!"

Puppies make a household so happy!   ;D

A second choice could be "The Quiet Man."

Both are great choices.  Have you seen the Irish comedy "An Everlasting Piece"?  Very funny and quirky.

When I tracked the package, it's slated for delivery today.
