Dammitall!  Me and Petey were interviewed by Adam Rossi, the fresh faced new music reporter for Saratoga Today, a weekly serving our frigid northern metropolis of Saratoga Springs, NY. Having been a reporter, I still get the willies at the mention of a deadline - despite my having run screaming from the biz 5 years ago. So he says, "Please don't forget to get us a nice press shot of you guys" like 5 times. "Drop deadline is 5 p.m. Thursday. Okay?"

"Sure, no problem" I sez self assuredly as I have deep respect for and fear of the D word - and also because I want my picture in the paper. Makes me feel like a bigshot when I bump into the neighbors at Hannaford.

But I did forget. It's after 8 p.m. on Thursday, and the paper is put safely to bed, the nice young reporter has gone home or out to drink himself to death (because that's the other thing reporters do best), and I didn't provide him with a picture. My old Web site had a press section, but this new Web site only has a place holder as I have yet to figure out how to link over to high res pics of The Tequila Mocingbirds or Bourbon Renewal. Oy.
