I will, as soon as somebody sends me some! I played with two bands & didn't have a camera to bring.

I played in the Village in NYC last night...fricking CRAZY!! We were also offering a cash prize to the costume w/ the least clothing - there were quite a few contenders!!

I didn't have a camera w/ me so I'm waiting on some to surface . . .

We were Little Red Riding Hood. I'm the wolf (bass), singer was Red Riding Hood, guitar was Grandma, and guest percussionist was.....errrrr...... a wolf victim . Seeing guitarist in curlers made the party host double over laughing....was pretty funny.

Am waiting on more to surface..this was from my camera (I made it a point to get someone to take a group shot of us on my camera, because otherwise it'd be weeks for pics! )

There was a guy in Calhoun County that got caught for molesting sheep... No lie.
Guy got caught tresspassing on a farm, cops called. Owner mentioned "my sheep have been acting funny lately", cops laughed, ticketed the guy for tresspassing and let him. Owner was a cop in another agency, had a friend who was a veterinarian. Grabbed a rape kit from the station, got her vet friend to do the kit... sent the results to the State Police Crime lab. Guy got called back in for questioning, denied everything, when asked if he'd mind providing a dna sample, he agreed. The rest is history. http://www.state.mi.us/mdoc/asp/otis...cNumber=180006
So in his honor, I went as the Calhoun County Sheep Molester.... My old job involved working with some of the police agencies involved so I got the inside scoop. Much to my amusement. There was a motion to not require the guy to register as a sex offender when he got out. So I told the Chief of Police not to worry, we could build him a "Sheep Offenders Registry" if that happened....

Everything was going fine at the party until..... Little Bo Peep showed up...

Talk about an awkward moment.... You can tell from the look on her face she was kind of dismayed...

I disguised the identities to protect the innocent..

And on top of it all, that costume is now illegal in your stadium! I am a Giants fan, so obviously the skins difficulty hasn't made me so upset, but Snyder's got to either go away or leave people alone (staff and fans) and just be an owner. Very sad.

I didn't have a 'gig' but I did dress up. Here are a couple pictures of me in my costume..






didn't mean to be a "traitor" lol, but I couldn't find a bass one! But my purse is part bass! haha! (I say part bass b/c the body is a bass, the neck is ??? with three strings and the headstock is a guitard-of course the neck and body doesn't match up in the right place)
