Operation Blue Mountain

Thanks and accolades to all of the Certified Minions and unregistered partisans who participated in the very successful Operation Blue Mountain on Tuesday, March 10 (Paul’s birthday).

One More Thing Re: Atlanta…
March 27, 2008 – 10:18 pm
There’s an excellent write-up of this past weekend’s Atlanta show on the Quick Stop Entertainment website, which says many terribly nice things about us.

Here’s another video from last week’s San Francisco trip, as we were dispatched to pick up ukulelist and fellow sideman (sideperson?) Kristen Shirts and her husband Patrick from the airport. More of that glamorous rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle comin’ at ya!
