Free Comic Book Day 2013
So last Saturday May the 4th (be with you.get it?) We made our first public appearance at Pulp Comics. Free comic book day is a magical day when comic book stores get comics from all the different publishers and you can pick one or 2 to take home free of charge. Hence the name. Free comic book day occurs every year on the first saturday of May.
Here's the thing,we did our old show from there last year and we weren't counting on being asked this year. Our original plan was to cruise to all the comic book stores in the area and maybe randomly talking to different customers. Then we got a message from Paul at Pulp comics asking us if we wanted to be there. We jumped at the chance. Our buddy John Bulmer was already going to be there drawing and there was going to be cake and a barbeque.
I turned out to be a blast. Our buddy Ryan helped out for a bit. We met a lot of cool people and some contacts as well. We met a really nice lady named Steph from a web site called Geek Chic Elite. She was really cool and included us in her review of Free Comic book day. She was also nice and took some of our business cards to hand out. We agreed to set up an interview with her at this years Niagara Falls comic con.
Kath had the brilliant idea to set up a roll the dice question and answer game. We had a 20 sided dice and what ever number came up they would choose a geek question from the list and answer it. We recorded all the questions with our spiffy new recording device and we aired it on the pod cast.Everybody was really cool and nice when it came to answering.
My buddy Stacey showed up later on. I think it may have been her first time in a comic book store. She helped out for a bit. She also agreed to come to the Niagara Falls Comic con in June. Also saw a former kfc co worker named Kelly from back in the day.
We had a great time. Thanks for inviting us Paul. It was a fantastic day. Did i mention there was cake as well?

Poor blog
Hello blog. Sorry i have been neglecting you. I'm sorry buddy. I promise to write more and try harder. We've had a lot of fun and good times. Remember those times where i would complain about work and share it with everybody? Good times.I know there are still friends that want to read you pal. I know April sucked what with only 3 blogs being written. I promise to at least double that number this month. What do you say blog? Still friends?

So In my small way I'm a big man on mulberry street
Holy crap i've been so busy that the blog has been seriously ignored, We have a week left in April and i have only blogged three times. This is actually the third. I'm letting both of my fans down. Taking a quick time out from working on show related stuff to blog. I found something cool on you tube to have on in the background while i blog. Someone posted a concert that i was actually at in 1990. Billy Joel in Toronto on the Storm front tour. Its bringing back a lot of good memories--its also making me feel really old. Storm Front was my favorite Billy Joel album. You guys might remember the hits that came from it--We Didn't Start The Fire and I go To Extremes. Watching this concert and thats how i want to remember Billy Joel. Back then he was in his prime. He didn't milk his greatest hits. Unfortunately he hasn't had a new cd since 1993 so when he does tor its only greatest hits. Back then he used to move around a lot as well and would even get up from the piano once in awhile. These days he doesn't leave the piano much. I know he's older now and i'm not expecting him to jump off the piano like he used to but come on man. Really feeling nostalgic watching this concert--i was actually there!! So many good memories from that night. Man that guy could rock. It was the first and only time i got to see him play the songs Shameless and Leningrad. I was still friends with Colin and he was with me at that show. By the way--how was that 23 years ago? It was seriously in my top 10 concerts of all time. Now if someone would just find footage from my first Billy Joel concert back in 1984.
