86 years young!

Last night in Pittsburgh, George ( our tour manager/recorder of the shows) had his Grandma Marge show up. We gave her some Mother's Day flowers and sang to her. She stood up and started doing the mash potato to Chinese Vacation. It was simply amazing. That lady knows how to party. Thanks Marge and I hope you have a million more good times. I think George had all his relatives show up to the gig. I felt like I was at a wedding except we didn't sing Ave Maria.
Note the beautiful 12 dollar penguin sweater I found in a thrift store in the south side.. George is going to try to steal it from but I won't let him. I'll guard that thing like Fort Knox. I think I like Pittsburgh.
Detroit was full of lots of good energy the other night as well. I went to the new ballpark to see the Tigers play the Red Sox. Red Sox won on a grand slam by Doug Mirabelli. Beautiful ballpark and man was it COLD! I think it was 30 degrees oot there. It was so good to get back to Detroit and play a show. I promise not to wait so long next time.
See ya in Cleveland tonight,
Steverino

It was great having you entertain us last night in Pittsburgh! Thanks for a fun show ~ The Penguin shirt was a really nice touch!
Hey Steve, Stinky and my favorite cousin, George:
We had a fun time last night in Pittsburgh, it was a great show. Hope to catch you again sometime.
Great picture and it looks like y'all had a blast!
Sean, leave Marge alone, you're not her type.

Hey Steve - you made that promise about playing Chattanooga!! It's ok though because the 1,100 miles I put on my car for GA & NC were worth it dude.
