So I put together this little benefit concert for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer and I am so excited about it, I think I'm going to vomit. And I'm so nervous about it, I think I'm going to vomit. Either way, something is going to come back out that shouldn't.

I got these two other amazing Chicago musicians to play with me, Phil Circle and Jeremy Babcock. I am so amazed at their enthusiasm and generosity! They are both really excited to be playing, and I love their music, and they are just really nice people. I can't believe all I had to do was ask and they agreed to participate. Thank you guys! I owe you big time.

And the people at the Heartland Cafe for letting me put together my own event, just giving me a date to work with. I did a play in their theater space a while ago, so I can vouch for the venue and say that it is really nice and has great food, much of which is vegetarian/vegan friendly. And the best hot chocolate in the WORLD. Though I don't know that people will want to be drinking hot chocolate in April, but take my word for it -- it is amazing.

And it seems like everything is in order. Now it is just up to my own little promotions department to get the word out there. Phil and Jeremy are helping with that, too, getting the word out to all of their fans. I hope people show up. I hope people have fun. I hope I don't vomit. I hope nothing explodes or implodes or completely falls apart, making me look like a completely incompetent ass. I know I'm excited for the show. I think it will be great. I guess if I just keep the positive attitude about the whole thing, and promote the hell out of it, well, that's the best I can do, right? Keep your fingers crossed for me just in case, though. Thanks.

I'm so excited for this show. I'm doing a solo acoustic set. Phil Circle is doing a solo acoustic set. Jeremy may be doing a solo acoustic set, or he may bring another guitar player and a violinist. Either way, this is shaping up to be one amazing night, and all in the name of healthy boobs. Mark your calendars! You will not want to miss this!

Eep!

I think I got both bands that I want for the benefit on April 2. Woo hoo! I'm still working out a few minor details and then I'll be able to tell you about the whole thing all at once. I'm so excited! This is going to be a great night of music for a great cause.

And I got two covers of "Ordinary" from my friend near DC for the single. I don't know if I told you that or not, but they are amazing. I'm so excited to hear what the rest of the remixes sound like, and excited to see what you guys think of the whole thing. Yay!

Okay, I'm going to go calm down now.
