Blue Sky Riders

What have YOU done for BSR lately?

A while ago, Georgia mentioned on our Facebook page that we never had a wedding cake. That is true. When we got married last April, a wonderful friend gave us a zillion delicious little Tea Cakes as our reception dessert. Even though they were delicious, there remained a gaping hole in our marriage that could only be filled by a true wedding cake. Georgia never mentioned it out loud… but there were signs. Always signs. An occasional sigh as she flipped through her pastry magazines. The slightest tremble in her shoulders during certain scenes of “The Wedding Crashers.” It killed me.

Then I had a revelation. I will write the blog about the show BEFORE the show. I mean, I kind of know how it’s gonna go, right? So here goes. Here is what happened tonight. If I end up being  wrong about anything I will suck it up and correct it before I go to bed. (more…)

There are shows that are on the schedule forever… you look forward to them for so long and then they are here and you play and… they’re over. And you are sad. One second you are on stage and the next you are in the bus and there is a sign saying “NOTLEF” in your rear view mirror. For me it was last night’s show at Don Quixote’s. (more…)
