I’m Beautiful Like Me.

The weeks have been crazy hectic. I have looking forward to Jugband Jubilee 2009 since last year! I finally got word last week about the date, but had already committed myself to the department for which I work’s annual picnic. Hell, I planned the thing! In any case, we decided to attend the picnic first and then head out to the Waterfront Park to the Jugband Jubilee. Last year, I took Joy and went with Penny and her girls. This year, Husband and Buddha joined us. It was an amazing time.

The crowd this year was much bigger!

 

 

 

 

The Cincinnati Dancing Pigs

Just today, they erected this memorial for Earl McDonald, a Jug Band Pioneer. His lovely granddaughter gave a short speech of thanks at tonight’s performance.

 

 

 

 

These fellows are a Japanese Jugband and this was their first American appearance. They were very fun, extremely entertaining and, of course, amazingly talented. They are the Old Southern Jug Blowers. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And of course, I had the opportunity to play with my new camera!

Joy was particularly photogenic today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Buddha made a new friend (with a VERY fancy camera).
