The Bass Geek

Opening weekend for ACT went fine - since we’re not playing all the time, I was able to take in the muffled thud from the biergarten next door between numbers.  The Polkaboy-inspired madness Friday night was expected; it was the cover band from Saturday night that surprised me.  Was Eric Clapton’s “Forever Man” really a wise choice?  I’m fairly sure there wasn’t enough cocaine down there to really make that song sound as good as people seemed to think it was in the 80s.

I managed to miss the On Procession parade due to some scheduling mix-ups.  By the time I was headed back to the neighborhood, the floats were on the way out, Miss Botox was deflating her blow-up dolls, and people were chasing giant olives down the alley after they’d escaped the giant martini glass.  I’ll post the meager two pictures I had tomorrow.  I settled for some jazz at Deano’s after my show and went from there.

My share of the MySpace book is finished, too, despite their efforts to prolong my writing.  Just as I was getting ready to put it to bed, the MySpace Applications feature went live, and that had to be tossed in.  Still, it’s done, and folks can find out more about adding next-gen quizzes to their pages just . . . in . . . time.
