Happy Birthday, Mallory!

We played Mallory's birthday party Saturday night, and it was great. Cass spent the last month building an amazing stage in their backyard for the party, and we were lucky to be a part of the great bunch of bands who played. There was food, fun, and friends, and it was a beautiful night.

I was extra psyched because Mal sat in with us for a few songs, singing and playing accordion, and Cass, Mal, and John all played with Steve, Bill, and I on "Your Heart Is a Muscle The Size Of Your Fist." It was great to have everybody up on stage together again.

The rest of the night was excellent as well, with music from The Civil War Buddy Hollies, Dark Moses, The Free Radicals, and The Great Afternoon. DJ Feathers was there spinning records, too.

You remember that car commercial with Nick Drake's "Pink Moon" in it? I'd say this was a real-life version of that good a night.

Sadly, my camera was not working. If anyobody who was there has pictures, I would be very grateful if you'd send them my way.

Cheers,

Ryan
