Buddy and I went to TOP around 9:30 in the hopes that the rain
might let up and that the movie LEGALLY BLONDE might be screened.
However, the evening had been called off. We chatted with
Eric/other a bit; he said the first band had gotten its set in
tonight, but that the second band never took the stage due to the
rain.

(that's a true shame. "Legally Blonde" was one of my favorite
movies last summer. I suppose the plus is that I didn't miss it
at TOP after all.)

I spotted other under the parking lot deck about 8 oclock, but left when it
became clear they were putting the monitors away for good. Then it rained.
Hard.

I saw a couple Grexers at TOP on Monday, but I didn't remember their names.
Otherwise, I would have said "Hello."
So...if any of you saw me there with my sister and said "Goodness, twinkie
is rude in person, as well!" please don't take offense. :)

Hmm. You didn't come and say hello to me. I'm easy to find at TOP. I'm
the guy who spends the most time on stage without actually making any
music. Plus, I wear a tag around my neck with my name on it.
I'm usually weearing my "Discovery Wings Channel" basebal cap, to keep
the sun out of my eyes, or in yesterday's case, to keep the rain out of
my eyes.

Spotted very very few grexers last night. In fact, the only grexer I
spotted was other.

Spotted other, who gave me a free ticket to the Nnenna Freelon concert inside.
Thanks, Eric!

Glad to provide. You were the only 'likely candidate' I saw tonight.
The show wasn't selling very well, so they had a few tickets available to
persons deemed likely to enjoy the show but unlikely to have purchased
tickets to it.

Tonight! 8:15 pm at Top of the Park, the Ann Arbor-based bluegrass/oldtime
band Uncle Earl, an all-woman band with Jo Serrapere and KC Groves on
lead vocals, Tamineh Guarmany on fiddle, and -- if we're lucky --
the same part-time members on banjo and bass who played with the
band in February for that great show at the Ark.
I came back from my Maryland trip a day early so I wouldn't miss
this show.

(also tonight is the Heidi Snyder Band, which I had the pleasure of seeing
perform two years ago. [coincidentally, that was my last time at TOP.])

You forgot aruba and carol. I spotted the same list as above (except for me)
but was planning on meeting up with krj, STeve, and buddy.

Thanks to everyone who turned out on my recommendation. Uncle Earl's
set seemed a bit rough to me, with rhythms and tunings being a little
off and tempos a bit slow, though it came together better at the end
of the evening. For their last song before the encore they brought
up someone named Vita (from the Jeff-Vita Band) who had a really good song.
Since Uncle Earl's last Ann Arbor show at the Ark, banjo player
Casey Henry seems to be taking a larger role, including some lead
vocals.
Mary/buddy convinced Steve and I to stay for the movie, THE OTHERS.
It was a very classy haunted-house movie with one wonderful moment
when everyone in the audience jumped.
