The cookie man was late

So we played at St. Joeseph's University last night in Philly. They
had this awesome idea to advertise the show inside fortune cookies,
which I think is so adorable & creative. Problem: the cookie man
didn't get them done until right before the show. So everyone ate
cookies all night advertising the event we were already attending :)
It was a really cool show. Alexandra McHale opened the show and she
was hilarious. If you don't know her by name, I bet you'd recognize
her. She does Vh1 shows & Comedy Central. She closed out her set with
a story about John Mayer asking her when "the baby was due" when she
was not pregnant. Yeah. Ouch. But somehow she made that really funny!!
Not sure how....
Mayda A. Del Valle, a beautiful spoken word artist, who's been on tour
with HBO in Russell Simmons' Def Poetry went next. I am amazed with
poets. For someone without a beat or music to take JUST words and
string them together in a way that sounds so musical... What an art
form. That girl had me in the palm of her hands with her poetry - well
that is until a spider came down from the ceiling and nearly scared
Hootie out of his chair. :)- he survived though.
And then we went on and had so much fun! The audience was up and
dancing and of course the spider came back and nearly scared these 2
girls out of the room. But we ended the night with pizzas, Philly
cheesesteaks, and lots of fortune cookies. :)
