A Day Late and a Lawn Chair Short

13 Comments 28 June 2010

I’m so very sorry for this.

Was just going through my pictures on my phone and realized I messed up.

This concert was yesterday and I forgot to tell you about it.

My bad.

I did, however, find a video collection of their best work, so here it is.

(make you sure catch the poem and twinkling star action halfway through)

Obviously I’m poking fun because this isn’t my cup of tea at all.

But there’s a lot of folks here in Amish Country who eat this stuff up, so good for these folks for doing what they love.

You play that paper bag, Ryan!

Hope everyone had a great weekend, it’s time for a Music Monday edition of “A Little More About You”.

Take out the ear buds, put down the guitar, and give us the dirt.

1. Fill in the blank: My least favorite band/musician is probably _________________. (it can be active or historical)

2. What’s one of your MUST-HAVE CD’s for any road trip?

3. What’s the most embarrassing thing on your iPod right now?

Join the discussion in the comments.

I’ll throw my answers in down there as well.

Monday morning…Holiday week…Here’s last week’s CD name answers to get you into the swing of things.

I told you that this CD name included to word “News”.

No one got it exactly, but 7 of the 12 guesses correctly figured out that the news was “good news”.

Here’s the actual name…

I told you that this CD name included the word “Rolled”.

Lots of comments came in on the shirts…and with good reason. They’re awful.

Crystal came awfully close with “The Stone Was Rolled Away”

She should have gone Jeopardy! on it and answered in the form of a question.

here’s the actual name…

Finally, I told you that this CD name included the word “money”.

Lance almost nailed it with “Sun Ray of Hope – Twins and a 12 string = MONEY!!”

(okay, not really)

We’ll take the week off from Guess the CD Names this week, and then return with the last 2 installments.
