...so on Sat., 7/17/4, I was hangin' with guitarist Roger Steen in a hotel bar in Port Washington, WI after the Fishday Festival in which The Tubes opened for Blue Oyster Cult. He suggested that I start a blog to document my times and travels.

i worked at the ever-fun Willy Street
Fair as a bartender representing the crystal corner.
although always a sign of the end
of wisco summer, this great annual neighborhood festival featured
excellent crafts, great and diverse
food, freedom, and somewhat-exciting music.
here's the world-famous BUBBLEMOBILE, which i was right next to at
closing.
