Argh! I know, it's been a while since i last did anything here. Let's just say that i've been a bit busy running around doing shows, seeing shows and such. Tonight it's Chicago again, tomorrow Dubuque, Iowa and then i'll see my house for a couple of days before heading south again. Highlights (or oddities that stand out): Seeing Reese pick up an enormous megaphone and sing through it then later watching Wammo form a circle of admirers while he sang along to Bohemian Rhapsody blaring over the sound system after the show. Sara the 7th grader at Maconaquah Middle School who was both witty and funny to chat with before and after the show even if we only let her "pick up a rock" during the show, and the mohawked Jabberwocky in that same show. Missing the tornado this evening by a few hours that tore up a Walgreens south of here. Visiting my sister if only for dinner last night. Looking at high school photos of Dick Van Dyke and Gene Hackman who went to the high school we visited today in Danville, Illinois. Being serenaded by our waiter this evening and being given "the royal treatment" just because. An oddly interesting conversation with a young truck driver named Chad who stopped in the same highway side restaurant as us as he was making his last Semi-truck trip before switching to a local delivery route. Those are in no particular order, and there are probably others worthy of note missing from the list at the moment, but it's tired and i'm late.~w
