The Real Truth

Today’s blog was going to be about Andrew Bird. With the last name Bird, he will go down in history among the other greats with the same last name, such as Larry Bird. And Big Bird. Not to completely discredit this young, talented, somewhat handsome artist, I will be setting him aside until my next blog. (However, as I write I do have his music playing in the background). After last night, as I was laying in bed tossing and turning and being kicked and pushed off my bed by a 2 year old, I’ve decided to tell you the real truth to why I’m thrilled to be attending Bonnaroo. I’ve hinted a few times that I’m the mother of 2 lovely children. Now, I could have pulled that sympathy card in my contest video. I could have sobbed to each and every one of you that I NEED a vacation!! Please feel sad and vote for me because I NEED a break! But I didn’t. I utilized my creativity instead. I made you smile. I won fair and square. And now I’m saying, I cannot wait to have five full child free days. Five full days of frolicking about, doing anything I please. Five full days of music and beverages. Five full days of relaxation. Of course, I’ll miss my children and will drown them in attention when I return. It’s a win/win for everyone, you see. They will be spoiled by grandparents. I will be spoiled by VIP camping and great company. How many more nights of restless sleep? 27 my friends. Only 27. Stay tuned for Andrew Bird. --posted by Trish

Kitty used to be a Goth--almost
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture. I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons. 1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels. 2) I used to...

World's Worst iPod: Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...

World's Worst iPod: It's a Miracle by Barry Manilow
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
A Fine Monday Afternoon
The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, it is another gorgeous Monday, fit for another great show at the Crystal Corner tonight. Through locking ourselves in the barn on Irish Lane, tossing some ideas around, as well as a few choice beverages to...

Hey everybody, we were thrown for a loop by the twist this week, but were able to make one of our "oldie but a goldie" songs fit the mold. We have a few songs that we have played consistently over the years, and we are very happy that we will be...
