2008 Spring/Summer Tour - Day 150

I had a show this morning at the Tumbleweed Music Festival, which is an annual concert held every year at a park here in Richland. My show was only the second of the day, so a lot of people were still coming into the park during my set, but I had a decent throng of local fans there and it was a fun show and a really beautiful day for the event. We stayed for a while and listened to some music and the girls got face-paintings, and then we went out for lunch and then back home for some final house rearranging.

At about 6, Tim Noah and his son, Jude, came over. Tim is a legendary children's music performer from the Seattle area and we'd been hoping to meet him at some point, so when someone from the Tumbleweed Fest contacted us to ask if we could provide lodging for some of the out-of-town performers, we were happy to offer the clubhouse beds to Tim and Jude. We all went out for dinner and talked for quite a while, then came back and put the girls to bed, then talked some more. Tim and I definitely seem to share some perspectives and experiences with our kids' entertainment, and it's been great to get to know him and learn more about his extensive career.

I hope you keep this blog up even while you're at rest from touring. We like to know about the goings on Chez Endres (wherever "chez" may be at a particular time).

Hi, Alkelda.

I think I'm going to keep the journal going... but only over here at Blogger and not at MySpace. It's a pain sometimes to post things to both places.

Take care,
Eric
