Cha-Cha-Cha Charmin

My week back in NYC has been okay. Some friends/fans of Steve and ours from Ft. Scott Kansas came out and we ended up hanging pretty hard a couple of nights. Friday I showed them Times Square were we visitedThe Charmin Restrooms. If you haven't heard about what it is, Charmin has set up this building with restrooms in the middle of Times Square where it's typically hard to find a place to take a leak. Upon walking in to the place you're greeted by a worker who tells you "it's not just a restroom, it's an experience!" You take and escalator up to a waiting area where there are workers dancing around to the Charmin song, places for photo ops, and a large flat screen TV displaying different countries around the world and how many visitors from each the Charmin Restrooms had had (59 from Ghana). After waiting in a short line a worker tells you to use whichever of the twenty restrooms were available. The restroom smelled great and gave you a choice of six different toilet papers. After leaving a worker rushes in and makes sure everything is okay for the next guest.

An experience it was! Pictures to come soon.

Sunday we had to go to Jersey for a gig. This turned out to be a total drag. Our driver got lost, the gig was lame. All of this on top of the fact that the Colts got embarrassed really put me out. But last night we went downtown and heard some great Brazilian music so at least the day ended well.

The gig starts again tomorrow. Time really seems to be flying by this year as compared to last year. I guess I'll be home in no time.
