Alabama Chicken

A little over a year ago I went to go see my brother's girlfriend's dance show at UC Davis and it was an interesting experience. The best part of it was I heard the "chicken song," which I later learned was titled Alabama Chicken. The song was written and performed by Sean Hayes (not the gay guy from Will & Grace). Anyways, I heard he was playing up in Davis this last Thursday and decided to make the hour and a half treck up to see my brother for the concert.
I'm not a huge folk music fan as I think it truly is for dirty tree-huggers, but I was delightfully surprised that the concert was very good. The little coffee shop he played in was completely full, so apparently he is quite well known in the hippie community.
Anyways, the moral of the story is if you go to see a folk singer play remember to wear your birkenstalks, smoke an assload of reefer, and not bathe for weeks on end. Also check out Shawn Hayes if you ever get the chance.

Back in Effect

I have finally decided to return to the blog. I hope my absence was long enough for dramatic effect. In the last month I have returned to California and am currently working on my new position as a drain on the economy. Seeing as bloggers are so important to the world I have decided to once more bear the responsibility...plus I need something to do pass my time.
