This was back on June 10, of course, but I didn’t go through all the footage and edit it till today.

Check out the cool new decorations on the patio of our summer home, Joe’s Prime Time Pub.

Just got back from the June 10 show at Pine Knob. Here are some photos off my cellphone…

Update: I did a photo-dump of all tonight’s pictures over at my dot-Mac gallery –– over at my Flickr page.
Some hosts we are.
We had a deluge last time Jimmy played in Michigan and it looks like the same might happen this time.
Crap.

Breaking news, from Casa de Mike:
“Meijer is selling the salsa now. Chips too!”

Despite what we said earlier, it looks like there will be no new show this week. Schmoe and Mike are heading to Roger Clyne’s Circus Mexicus, and Schmoe needs time to prep on how to say “Puerto Peñasco”. We’ll have a new show next week, where we can discuss our fantasy setlists, and, presumably, hear stories of Mexico.
Update: Text messages from Schmoe, sent Friday, May 16:
We were able 2 go to m’ville cafe glendale so we can charge trip 2 scott’s paypal acct
I am making… Waffles!
Update update: now that Mike and Schmoe are back, we found out the reason Schmoe’s IMs stopped so prematurely.
First of all, I must tell everyone that my cell just plain stopped working in and around the border. No chance at Cholla Bay. I would have loved to keep my texts going. Especially if Mick was going to run his own Twitter site for me on our blog, it would have been funny to see them in order. At least for me it would have been. I apologize for starting some hours later than I should have and then ending abruptly.
Update update update: photos from the trip are now available in our Photo Gallery.
When someone you know and care about dies as a result of a freak accident, it knocks you off your feet. […] You think that what you’re seeing and hearing is so wild that it can’t possibly be happening.
That’s how many of my friends and neighbors in the Caseville area are feeling as they try to take stock of what happened to Judy Zagorski on Thursday [March 20]. Zagorski, a Caseville resident, was killed in Florida when an airborne spotted eagle ray hit her while she rode in a boat driven by her father. The accident was so incomprehensible that it made new reports across the nation.
I met Judy through her long association with the Cheeseburger in Caseville Festival, the 10-day party that transforms our village into Key North, a tropical paradise each summer. Judy, and her husband, Steve, who died in his own nightmarish way in December 2005 after complications from routine shoulder surgery, were among the original organizers of the festival.
Judy was what you call a “people person.” She was sweet and kind and generous, almost to a fault. If you met her, you liked her. It was automatic. She became an instant friend, someone who would do anything she could for you.
People in our tiny resort town will remember her vibrant smile, her great sense of humor, and her humanity for years to come.

Carrying on the tradition, here’s the radio ad for our concert this year.
Caught on WCSX (94.7 FM) at around 10 PM Thursday night, after only about nine hours of recording. (The ending is somewhat faked because it got buried under the start of the next commercial.)

WA-HOOO!
The rumor is true. BuffettNews confirms it.
Jimmy is coming back to Pine Knob: Tuesday, June 10! Tickets are $37.50 or <gulp> $137.50 and go on sale Friday, March 21.
Hand me a Landshark and a credit card — all systems are go!
P.S.: the Detroit Free Press also mentions the concert news (via BuffettWorld). Strange how the Freep says “Ticket prices have not yet been announced”, since I got the above prices right off the Palacenet site.
