"No Handlebars" Tomorrow Night...

When it rains it pours. So why does Big Beat get the call to open up for the Flobots tomorrow night (aka: they sing the "Handlebars" song that they play on the radio 24/7, and PS- USA Today named that song the #1 alternative song in America 2 weeks ago-nice) only when for the first time ever my husband can't physically rock a mic? Because when it rains it pours. Thank you "gangrenous appendicitis." What a super cool opportunity that would have been for them. And they also had to forgo playing their show at the Beatles' Revolution Lounge this week too. That blows. I think that Smooth should just rap while laying down in a coffin, Snoop Dogg style. What do you think? That wouldn't be too physically demanding for a guy who just had his burst appendix removed 2 weeks ago now would it? Okay, maybe so. Perhaps they'll get a sweet call like that again one day. For now, they'll just have to rock their mics (or ride their bikes) with no handlebars, no handlebars...

So I love that I can read your blog and learn more and more about you and Jeff! I had no clue he was in a band let alone that he'd have to pass up such a great opportunity! That sucks. Ohhh, there will be better times. But again, I love catching up on the years of info that I have missed, so fun for me!

I had no idea that Jeff was in a band! Well, I bet that new and better opportunites will come up.
