Well, this has been fun! And I’m really proud of myself – I partied with the big boys last night and never fell asleep once! Sorry I don’t have pics to share – I forgot my camera!
The Kane show at 12th and Porter rocked! I got there a little late (had to fetch certain lollygagging band members from the Whiskey Kitchen), so I watched from the back. There was no way I was going to try to cut in front of that sea of fans – I might have been torn apart, limb from limb! It was a short set, but we didn’t leave for a couple hours – the guys had old and new friends to talk with, equipment to load…. and I got to meet a couple of MY blog readers!!! Hi Alison! Hi Heather! It was great meeting y’all!
After the show we went back to Whiskey Kitchen to eat – they make a great pizza, but I burned the roof of my mouth on the sauce and before my “homemade Oreo cookie” dessert arrived, the guys got a text from somewhere, and next thing I knew, we were on the move again – down to Broadway. First stop, “Tootsies“, where we saw my new favorite girl – Leslie Craig ROCK the house! Hi Leslie! Hi Deidre!
Then, another text came in – Jerrod Neiman was next door at the “Second Fiddle” so we were on the move again! Got to listen to a great set from Jerrod and meet a few more friends, then got another text and we were off to the “Stage” a few doors down to see some Tennessee Titan friends! It was a great night and I just told myself – “Sandy, they’ll be plenty of time to sleep when you’re dead” – right?
The guys just left for the airport, headed to Austin and I go home today – I’ve loved every minute of my trip, but I can’t wait to get back to my hubby and the puppies…..and my kitchen! I have a few things I want to re-create when I get home, including the “silver-dollar potato cakes” we had at “Noshville” yesterday AND I have a big ol’ care package that should arrive tomorrow from “Loveless Cafe,” with biscuit mix and lots of jams…AND I can’t wait to get back to my own bed – I’ve been sleeping under Egyptian Cotton here (no complaints) but I’m a flannel sheet kinda gal and I can’t wait to crawl in between them tonight!
So I’ll be back to blogging about food mañana! Thanks everyone for following me on this little detour to ♫MUSIC CITY, USA♫ …. and if the boys in the band are reading this, thank you so much for all your generosity! I had a blast! Cheers!
people are talking.....
