So, some of my bestest friends in the whole world are in a band called Pesky J. Nixon out of Boston. And said friends will be headlining at the world famous Caffe Lena in a few short weeks.
Let me say that again so my point is not missed. My friends will be HEADLINING at CAFFE FREAKING LENA on August 15.
If you are anywhere near Saratoga, NY or have the means to be there on August 15, you just have to get tickets and go see the show. The Pesky boys will be the main act and I promise you, their live show is not to be missed. This show will serve as the CD release of their brand new EP, Monkey Business & Mislaid Hopes. Which rocks. But that goes without saying.
You can get tickets by visiting the Caffe Lena website and they’re a bargain. Plus, not for nothing, Caffe Lena has some of the best chocolate chip cookies outside of my kitchen. And that’s saying something.
In the meantime, I have got a copy of Monkey Business to give away to a lucky reader of this very blog! Need to read a review of the album? Well I don’t have time to write on right this second, but I’ll try to get to it. In the meantime, you can go read this review.
To enter the giveaway, leave a comment and tell me a story about music. Can’t think of a story about music? Just say “hi”. One comment per reader, please. On Saturday, July 31 I’ll pick one reader comment at random and that commenter will be the winner! Good luck!
And don’t forget to buy your tickets for the show! (Let me know if you’re going so we can say “hi!”)
We’ve been listening to the radio at dinnertime for the last week or so, and it has been so much fun. We don’t get many stations, so it’s always tuned to this one that plays a mix of the most random music ever. They play a lot of Phil Collins, which is pretty much amazing. Olive gets disturbed when Adrian and I sing along…
The other day when I picked up Abby from school, we were pulling into the driveway and “I’m a Believer” was playing on the “Abby Mix”. I was singing it and Abby asked me not to turn it off until the song was over. In two seconds flat, the two of us were dancing around the garage, singing with the music.
Then Abby reaches in to the car, pulls out the microphone and starts dancing and singing as if she had been doing it all her life of 3 years!
