Carlyle Week 2

Things went pretty well this week. The band is starting to tighten up and groove and we are getting used to playing in such a small venue. The audiences have been very enthusiastic as well.

Not many celebrity sightings this week, only one. Don King came to the show last night. He was really funny, he kept shouting out things during the show like he does when he promotes a fight "Yeah Steve Tyrell!", "You guys are the best", etc.

I also remembered a funny story about the hotel I wanted to post about. Last week Prince Charles and Camilla stayed at the Carlyle. It was the night we opened, Tuesday. Well there are a lot of impressive photos around the Carlyle of people that have stayed there, presidents, celebrities, etc. I noticed a very nice picture of Jakie O right outside of the club. Well a couple of nights later the picture of Jackie O had been replaced by a picture of Lady Di.

Turns out the folks at the Carlyle didn't want to upset Camilla so they replaced Diana's picture with Jackie's during their stay.

    GO COLTS!!! Keep your fingers crossed, fellow Colts junkie!!! It could be our year!

    Have you seen Strawberry Fields in Central Park...it was dark when we were there and I couldn't appreciate it.

    Sounds like you're enjoying yourself! Love, SueAnne

    The Colts are going to face a great opponent this weekend, it will be a true test of the new and improved defense.

    And I've seen Strawberry Fields before but I haven't made it there this trip yet.
