Nailed it! 1 day ago

Me & Bobby McGee was incredible. Tooting my own horn a bit, but I surprised myself with how powerful it was. Something happens when I’m singing in front of a crowd. I get way into it & just wail…

Our newest original song, Mean Girl, went over well. It was kind of cool that the girl that QB terrorized (& I refused to terrorize) showed up for the song’s debut since I wrote it because of her. She was laughing & grinning from ear to ear, and I couldn’t help breaking out into laughter halfway through the second chorus. Pure joy. So thanks to Jane & Double N who suggested that I write a song about all the stuff QB put us through.

Don’t Fear the Reaper & Lola were huge hits. Hubby just ROCKED on Lola!

After the gig, another writer asked if I’d consider recording a funny song that he wrote called, Gay Country, the story of a girl who sees Britney & Madonna kissing on tv & decides to leave her husband. Told him I’d love to do it. Sounds like fun. He seemed a little surprised – “Really?”

:)

Reversal... 2 days ago

The bonehead decision was overturned today. We’re doing what I originally suggested, which is certain to save us a TON of money & time in the long-run. And we’ll be much less likely to blow something up (literally). The best part is that I never had to actually point out the “boneheadedness” of his decision, so we are still on good terms.

Rehearsal for tomorrow went great... 2 days ago

I get to play cowbell on Don’t Fear the Reaper,sing lead on _ Blondie’s _One Way or Another,” belt out _Me & Bobby McGee, and even hit the high harmonies on Lola & Every Rose Has Its Thorn. I think it’s going to be a really FUN set.
