We Went to a Garden Party
June 28, 2009Last night we went to the most incredibly enjoyable party. Darling Man won my forgiveness as well, but I’m still not doing his laundry this week nor cooking for him as a measure of reminder for his bad deed Friday night.
As some of you readers know, Darling Man’s in a band and they play small gigs around town. I met the new keyboardist for the group, Patrick. We hit it off immediately. One of the first things he said to me, “You’re an Ass”, after a comment I made. We looked at each other and laughed until tears came. Instant recognition it seems. He’s right too.
Conversation turned from their next gigs to birthdays. Seems his birthday falls close to mine so now we’re having a big birthday party to celebrate his 32nd and my…well we need not talk about it… What has endeared him to me for life, he could not believe how old I’m about to be, he absolutely freaked. Flattery will get you everywhere with me. I asked DMan if I could keep him. I’m taking photos of he and the guys, next open practice. He’s gorgeous, handsome and completely hilarious. We walked to his house after the party and he and DMan played for us, they work really well together.
At the party, we had the Hadden Sayers Band perform – had a huge turn out with the street blocked off. This band has played with The Derek Trucks Band and The Blind Boys of Alabama as an opening. They also provided background for the 2007 International Auto Show commercial. (click to listen)

Dog House Boogie
June 27, 2009I fell asleep on the sofa and apparently left up my blogs, twitter, etc. DMan had some fun so just excuse the previous post (now taken down) as a man’s wacky humor and yes, he’s in the dog house.
“Dog House Boogie” Seasick Steve
bow wow, wow.
Apologies toward a certain someone whom he apparently mentioned as well. Ahem. That’s what I get for leaving the “doors” unlocked…

Taylor Hicks Videos from the Magic Bag
June 24, 2009Taylor Hicks put on a show in Ferndale, MI at a club called the Magic Bag, Monday night. There was a video ban on the concert but this intrepid attendee managed to snare a few tunes. Sadly, no evidence of “Indiscriminate Act of Kindness”.
Sounds as though Taylor put on a great show. Lucky attendees. See you in Birmingham in September, people.

You Can Only Love What You’d Die For…
June 22, 2009Shine the light.
I’ve had one of those days when I feel talked out. This is a tune from Foy Vance, a quirky man with tons of talent.
They say that love is hard to find
I sure found it hard to find mine
Though love walked right up to my face
She said you can only love
what you’d die for baby
Shed a little light so I can find you
Don’t let darkness hide you from my face
Shed a little light so I can find you
I’d surely die for your embrace
They say the second love reveals
Trouble is hot on its heals
Then love walked right up
and stood by my side
And said if it’s love or death baby,
no need to decide
Shed a little light so I can find you
Don’t let darkness hide you from my face
Shed a little light so I can find you
I’d surely die for your embrace
Shed a little light so I can find you
Don’t let darkness hide you from my face
I’ve got a light that is sure to find you
But it might just blind you before that baby…
