Worst show ever played:

My friend Robin put on an evening of poetry called Saucebox at the old Stimulance Café. I was to perform before the show and during the intermission. During my first performance I broke a string in the middle of my second song. Of course, I didn’t bring any replacements. I was so embarrassed that I had to stop and race home to get another one. After driving to my house and then back to Stimulance (like a man possessed), I finally got the replacement string put on…only to break it again during the next song! Sometimes things aren’t meant to be.

Best show ever played:

This past summer, I performed at a music festival called Thirsty Melon at the Six Flags in Lexington, Ky. It was great. I not only got to play two showcase spots but also got to go on all of the rides, including the water rides, for free.
