will this stoner smile make do?

...to hide or accentuate the fact that Lindsey and I have a brand spankin' new act for a rather large show tonight, and I'm truly nervous-anxious-jumpin'jivin'-excited? Well, let's hope it does SOMETHING for someone!


The show tonight is a tribute performance honoring this year's lollapalooza. Every performance in both sets of this show will pay tribute to musicians either playing in this year's lollapalooza line up, or musicians who have headlined in the past. We had initally intended on reworking a Jimmy Cliff (who is playing this year) song for this act, but the producer from the troupe we're working with for this event requested that we make a rather wild act to Chromeo's song Tenderoni. We've spent the last two and half weeks creating a rather brightly colored number drawing part of our concept from the music video released for their song. Here's the Tenderoni video:



I'll say this much: we've managed to incorporate a giant ruffled pizza box, a bell boy cap, a rotary telephone, matching red ruffled bloomers and a boombox into the performance we have in store for viewers tonight....mama mia!
