Michelle Malone Sleep-over

[REPOST from my MySpace blog on Nov. 4, 2004]

Michelle Malone, her drummer and her roadie spent the night at our house last night after their concert in Boston. Linda and D took the two guest rooms upstairs and Michelle crashed on the futon in the livingroom....too tired to go upstairs. This morning we distributed computers and laptops so everyone could check their email, we tinkered around on my collection of guitars and other instruments, then I cranked up some Aretha, Etta, Ella and Billie and we got to watch Michelle sing and dance around in her jammies. Come to find out, Linda is multi-talented...she can play the guitar, drums, mandolin and sing all quite well. Last night at the show, she had a mandolin in her lap, one foot was doing the kick drum, the other foot was doing the high hat cymbals, she was singing backup vocals AND she was playing the drums (when she wasn't jammin' on the mando). All she needed was a flute and then why have Michelle around? Just kidding.

Aside from getting lost in Boston trying to find our way to the venue and getting our car towed, everything went smoothly. Word to the wise: If you ever travel around Boston, DO NOT use MapQuest.com or a GPS unit -- neither will get you where you need to go...I promise. Do the old fashioned thing and consult an updated map and give yourself some extra time to drive around aimlessly.

Thanks for such a fun Wed/Thur. gals!
