Well, I just got told my our boss that we got a comment. I have to say, thanks that made my day! I'm sorry for the delay of this blog, I should have gotten it up sooner. I hope everyone doesn't mind reading a delayed blog. ![]()
So, the fourth rolled around, of course our windows didn't have the Star Spangled Banner on them. Mostly we had a couple instruments that were blue and white, but none that were really red. But I found out on the Monday after the fourth, that the Judging for the windows competition was actually on July 2nd.
So it wouldn't have mattered had we gotten our windows decorated or not. The winner was the Laughing Dog, but next year... we'll get them! ![]()
At Adona Music, We hosted Charles Baron from Remember When. Basically, for all who don't know Mr. Baron, he is a Frank Sinatra singer. He sings songs by Frank Sinatra as well as song that are around the time that Sinatra became really famous.
I supported Mental Flossing by going to their 2:15 show at the Theater. They were really good and they had a full house. ![]()
He started his act at a little after one thirty. Before then, we had a nice keyboard plus Alan performance. It was fun watching my boss play with someone else for the first time. Alan does play with a group every once in a while but I've never actually seen him play before. Occasionally during Mr. Baron's performance, Alan would sneak back up to the stage with a trumpet to play for a little bit.
There were several people who came by to enjoy the music. At one point, we nearly had a full house of people listening to Mr. Baron's voice. It was a pretty good gig all in all.
There were a lot of people coming through to use us as a bathroom though. I heard that there were a lot of people going into the local restaurants to use them as potties as well. Though, as the saying goes, “When you gotta go, you gotta go.” So I'm not at all being harsh to the small amount of people who did stop in to use the facilities, but it would have been nice for you guys to have stopped and listened to Charles for a few minutes. You know? I do understand that port-a-potties are gross, but if everyone's using the same bathroom isn't it the same?
I didn't stay long after we closed the doors because I ride my bike home. I didn't want to go home in the dark. But I could still hear the fire works from my apartment.
As you guys probably noticed on our homepage, there's been an update of the on line store. Please, please please! Go there. My Boss, Alan, would appreciate even the smallest interest into the store. Other than that, what else has been going on, on the website? I altered the front page so that the slideshow doesn't cause movement as bad as it did before. Then I changed the Blog's header to a star pattern, I think it looks interesting and pretty much fantastic.
