HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Well… it is almost the end of 2011!
I have posted 102 entries and photograped 98 shows.
I have collaborated on a new project video series with Trav. S.D. called Vaudephone.
I wanted to leave this year with a fun posting so I found this delighful video from the ‘tinydangerousfun’ show that happened in August.
It was co-host Andy Sapora‘s birthday (John Leo is the other host) and in celebration all the women of the audience donned lipstick and KISSED him.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I wish every one a Wonderful New Year and hope we have fun and enchanted times!
