Who are all you people?</i> You shouldn't be surprised. Your songs are clever, funny, infectious earworms. Once you have a fan, you've got him for life. And we proselytize. So the numbers of us Monkey Minions can only grow exponentially. (The NPR appearance didn't hurt, either.) We luv ya, dude. Soon, you'll be playing sold-out arena gigs, and I'll be saying, "yeah, I knew him back before he was famous." (And you'll be saying, "who let this freak backstage? He's not supposed to be here! Security! Security!") > What the hell is going on here? Who are all you people?

At least they were more or less in tune, which isn’t always the case!</i> Thanks for that. *grin* Yes, the Second Row Singers (not actually a group, but now I'm seriously considering doing something with that name) consisted of me, Rob Balder, and Geordie Keitt. Of the three of us, Geordie and Rob have actually produced CDs, and I haven't, so really, if any one of us was going to be out of tune, it would have been me, so I'm taking the affirmations of tune-ness as a personal compliment. Mike: Thanks for the link--that has to be it. Thanks. I didn’t mind the singers in the second row, Mike. At least they were more or less in tune, which isn’t always the case!

They were singing along. Enthusiastically. I didn't want to harsh their fun. (And I didn't, so it ended happily). The online apology was really just an excuse to post the Star Wars link (they were talking about it and I was fairly certain I knew the url). They weren’t talking. They were singing along.

It's been about a year and a half but I still resent having had to turn around during a show at Wolf Trap and tell the people behind me "I can hear you and I really don't want to."

JJ was packed. Thanks for playing Mandelbrot Set. Also, to the guys who sat directly behind me in the second row, I'm sorry I had to shush you abruptly. I was so for forward that I was sitting on the wrong side of the speakers and you were actually drowning out Mr. Coulton. Also, I am positive that this: http://www.the-editing-room.com/?script=revengeofthesith is the Star Wars script you were talking about. Your show at Jammin Java rocked! JJ was packed.
