Anyone familiar with a restaurant chain called Lum's? ... They had a burger called the Ollie Burger that claimed to have 22 herbs and spices in it or something crazy like that. So I get it and doggone it if the thing wasn't one of the tastiest burgers I've had.
Found this with a quick search...

Given the number of ingredients in the components, 22 herbs and spices should be about right...

Who is doing good novelty music anymore? Nobody, that's who. Or whoever is doing them has no outlet for their skills. I long for the days when some silly idea could become a national phenomenon.

Energy Crisis '74

Dinner With Drac
The Monster Mash
The White Knight
etc.
Instead, we now have Cable News Networks.   :-\

Good morning!

Back from the show...

A sort of not-so-big audience, but very appreciative.  And they even stood up and danced during the curtain call sequence!  Hoo and Ray!

It really was a great show, and the great audience helped to pick up the energy of the cast for their final show of the week.

Afterwards, I helped pack up the keyboards, and I said my goodbyes to the two guys who will not be with the band in DC (union stuff).  And tomorrow, I shall be having lunch with Chris, the keyboard player, who will also be on "break" during the DC run.  I'll be taking his place in DC.  :(  -But it's nice to have the work.  And he'll be back with the tour after DC - and he gets the Canadian leg too!

I also had a bunch of friends in the audience tonight too.  And I had comped most of them in too! :)  And one guy ended up bringing another guy I went to school with who I hadn't seen in years.  Nice reunion.

Well, the essay test that ate Cincinnati is tomorrow.
Promise?  The one time der B and I visited Cincinnati, we didn't have even one good meal the entire time.  Even the chili was better elsewhere.   :P

Sandra, England between 1600 to 1713 is a very exciting time.  I read about the period just for fun.

And since I had comped a few people into the show today, I didn't have to buy any of my "adult beverages" at Barcode. :)

The place wasn't as crowded as it normally is on a Sunday night for karaoke.  A lot of the college crowd moved out this weekend, the new club just opened last week, so...  In any case...

I ended up having a surprisingly good time.  A bunch of friends were there, and it sort of became a kind of bon voyage for me.  No tears were shed, but there were lots of hugs.  It really was nice seeing everyone tonight.

And, yes, I did sing again tonight.  Another Billy Joel song, "Only the Good Die Young"  - which I still remember "analyzing" in my junior year Religion class in high school.

And now I'm back here just winding down from the day.

I've planned to spend tomorrow day here in Richmond, and then I'll head back up to Fairfax sometime around 8:00 - after the sun goes down so it's not too hot.  Lunch with the other keyboard player, then dinner with my friend, Mark.  In the meantime, I'll make one trip to my storage unit to get the two boxes of stuff I set aside to bring up to Fairfax with me.

Sounds like a plan to me...

Woody, you obviously didn't look very hard for a good restaurant in Cincinnati.  And you obviously didn't go to the Masionette, a five-star restaurant, or Pigall's, or Orchids at the Palm Court, or Jeff Ruby's, or even the plebian Gold Star or Skyline Chili.  Plenty of good restaurants in Cincy.  And you don't get better Cincinnati Chili anywhere outside of Cincinnati unless it's Dixie Chili right across the bridge in Newport, Kentucky.  If fact, aside from a few places outside of Cincinnati, you can't get it all.  You may not like Cincinnati Chili, but you can't get it any better anywhere else.

...And as I was playing the final songs of Mamma Mia! tonight, it really did feel like this was the last time I would be playing in Richmond...  -Although, something tells me I'll be getting some more calls in the future... But I might not be available... ;)

To tell the truth, we didn't get much chance to search.  We were there for a political convention, and even with a lot of other Log Cabin types around...well, their reputation isn't based...on taste...

Tonight's dinner was disappointing.

I was raiding the freezer, pulling out some Chinoiserie from Trader Joe's.  The stir-fry chicken left much to be desired.  I'm sure I can do better from scratch.  But at least I've got some ideas.

On the other hand, the shrimp gyoza were tasty.  Der B enjoyed them.  But again, I could probably do something from scratch, or semi-scratch, that would be as good.

And it's high time I moved the dogs around on my bed so I can have enough room for myself.  Right now, Marty and Mikey are both laying akimbo on said bed, in very strange patterns.  And I need to make room for both myself and Buster, who is waiting patiently for me to make my move.

And speaking of Zane Grey...well, earlier he was spoken of...did anyone know that his real name was Pearl Zane Gray??  He changed the spelling of his last name and dropped "Pearl" as his first.
