WHEW!!!!

 I woke up this morning...at about 7 am for my Hubby's goodbye kiss and I could not go back to sleep (even though BB is STILL sleeping!)...I realized I have let this blog sit idle for a bit and so here I am.
Things have been good, the adjustment to becoming a parent of a NB again has been a little tough for me and having a NB for the first time has been a little rough for the hubby so I don't get much free time to blog about anything but where my shows are etc.

It has already been a fun summer with shows...(even though Summer has JUST begun!!) and we played The Arts and Ideas fest in New Haven 6/18 which was a blast!!! And I joined in on some debauchery during the Elastic Hoax CD release by throwing panties onstage (not mine) and "mustaching" the crowd at Black Eyed Sally's.

I have been writing songs lately and snippets are being recorded here and there as I try to let myself feel the pain to write. I live many of my words and sometimes it is hard to get into that place and let myself rip into old wounds when I just wanna relax and be happy...but unfortunately, that's the life of the consummate artist....emotions and dramatics at a high= good shit. So stay tuned for new songs with titles like "Pill", "In your Face", "Take Me", and "Forget you" that will make you wanna open a bottle of wine and reminice about the  )_______ old days.

Hubby and I have enlisted the help of George Engel for production assistance as well as a good old kick in the ass if something stinks. I am REALLY looking forward to this as I am quite of a fan of "Baby Boot Box" and anything George writes...(which BTW Bobby and I did a bunch of playing on his new album coming out someday. Beautiful songs...my daughter even lends a harmony.

So next up.... RIVERFEST in Hartford for the Independence Day Celebration. 7/9 GREAT RIVER PARK 4:00 pm in the ampitheater...BE THERE!! Kid friendly event complete with fireworks, food, fun and good music. TONS of local bands playing throughout 4 Parks along the river....culminating in an orgasmic crescendo of fireworks exploding from a boat on the river!

But...if you can't make it or if you love us sooo much you want more  :) We are playing at Blueback Square in West Hartford (near Cheesecake Factory) with The Elastic Hoax 7/14 around 7 pm

Ok...well now I hear Harlow fussing...so much for my free time. Got to try and finish some music today as well as watch my Grandma and then teach some new lessons...so the day begins!

Be a great day!
