A NEW SET. A NEW SET. STOP THE PRESSES. Heh heh... Ok, now the reality: TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE NEW SET. Oh well, at least we're on the right track. The Slide set is introduced and the screens get all whacky when the pictures are introduced. Basically a screen pops up and gets all squiggly and then goes into place. No biggie, except the whole set are pictures and video. Oh well. I'll figure it out. Everything else went cool.
 
THE REACTION
Not too many people there. A bunch were expected for a pub crawl but never showed up. Great reaction once again from those who were there. Met a guy who played with BUDDY HOLLY the night before he died. Apparently Buddy would get back up bands when he toured sometimes. And this guy happened to be in a back-up band in Deluth, Minnesota. The following night he was killed. Wow. That's amazing. Talked with him for awhile. The move to LA is now out in the open, and lots of people asking me what I was feeling. Uhm....scared. :-) ...but excited. Looks like there's only two more Columbus shows left. Whew...
