Friday we flew to Boston to play a private yesterday for an organization that works with mentally disabled adults. We played the same event last year and we were all pumped to do it again as we remembered the open bar and fantastic food. This year didn't disappoint. Before the gig I got to squeeze in lunch with the esteemed Dr. Patrick Eaton and his beautiful family at his home.

(I should add that I've always like Boston and have always had a good time visiting despite the fact that I hate the New England Patriots with ever fiber of my being. With the Boston Red Sex playing in the World Series while we were there I was ready to be around some insufferable Boston sports fans but luckily I was able to avoid any run-ins).

So lunch was great and the gig was cool, this morning we rented a couple of SUVs to make the three hour drive to Sarasota Springs, NY. Well, we thought it would be a three hour drive, our tour manager (aka Magellan) likes to rely on GPS Navigation systems and let me tell you, they are always crap. We got lost and turning around on these Toll Roads up here is impossible. After a long drive and long soundcheck we played a concert at a Casino here in Saratoga. It was cool but I'm ready to get to the city. Knowing I'm going to have a new home, neighborhood, roommate, and routine makes me pretty anxious to get things started.

The Colts won today. The Day of Reckoning draws near ...

    Tough weekend coming. New England favored by 4.5 points, with Colts at home. Uphill all day. Got any plans for Sunday? Trish & I will be in NYC on Tuesday/6th. Take care. See all Tuesday night. LG
