Holy Fraking Schnitzel
So... I just sang Ebony and Ivory (I was horrible btw, but I'm not exactly caring about that at the moment) with Josh Joplin after he and Garrison Starr joined us for karaoke after their concert at Schubas tonight.
Were I an actual professional blogger type, I guess I would have come up with some sort of interview questions to ask them about their fantastic music.
Instead, I spent the whole time they were in our presence totally marking out and trying to figure out exactly how the evening's turn of events had turned from awesome (their show in the first place) to epic.
Anywho, if they should read this (since I gave them the blog address as part of my bugging them,) Josh, Garrison, thanks so much for coming out with us. The show was great enough, the after hours was even better. We look forward to seeing you both back in Chicago again soon. I will try to find a better song.
For everyone else, I encourage you again to check out Josh Joplin and to get on board with Garrison Starr as well.

so I seem to remember you saying something about liking rap song covers that aren't rap. if that's still true, you MUST check out Ben Taylor's myspace page the minute you read this. He and his friend David Saw, who both are FANTASTIC musicians, covered Sensual Seduction. I believe that's a Snoop Dogg song? It is glorious. (I am biased, I have a gigantic crush on them both.)

Tell the truth... do you love that guy just because he's Carly Simon and James Taylor's son?
The song is great fun, but I'll like him better when he comes to Chicago and sings karaoke with me.
