Yep, that's right. What do good ole' boys do in the off season? It's not baseball...it's music. I heard Tim Flannery on XX Sports tonight saying he and his band, The Enablers (he says his wife calls them that), are playing this Friday at the E. County Performing Art Center www.ecpac.com His opening act is Jake Peavy, who he called "sweet" with his Alabama boyish nervousness on stage with a guitar. Tim also said that Jake will want to go drink wine after he opens but he'll call him back on stage.

I haven't heard either one of them play except on some TV magazine show. It was probably Jane Mitchell's One on One or something. If anyone goes to see these two play something other than baseball this Friday, give us the report!

Drink up, Jake!

How Much?

I went through the site but they want you to put in all your personal information before they tell you how much the ticket is, which weirds me out a bit.

Tim said

...in that radio interview that they are already 85% sold out so they will probably sell out all 1100 seats. He only had 2 tickets to give away on the show.

It was pretty cool!

I was really bummed though because I missed the beginning. The tickets said the show started at 7:30, so I aimed to get there by then. But then we got lost in East County and didn't walk in until 7:50. I asked this lady if Jake already sang, and she said he did and he was really good. The lady was about 65. Actually, on that note, Stacy and I were the youngest people there, aside from the kids that were dragged there with their parents. The music wasn't really my type, but it was REALLY COOL hearing all of Tim's baseball stories. He also told this long story about how he recently started sleep-walking, and since he slept sin clothes, it really wasn't a good thing when he woke up asleep in the front door of his hotel room one morning. Anyway, Jake did come out and sing one verse of a song. Tim made him come up on stage. He was there with his wife Katie sitting in the front row. Wore a really scrappy pair of jeans and a Johnny Cash t-shirt with a long-sleeve white shirt underneath. I took some photos and some came out ok. I'll post them next..or attempt to. He sang just like he talks. With a huge drawl. It was Awesome! Then he came out for the grand finale and sang with 2 other guys. Couldn't hear him then, but he was having a blast dancing around and laughing. Oh, I almost forgot...Steve Polz was there too. He was CRAZY! Actually, that's one of the reasons Jake and everyone was laughing so hard in the end of the show. He was dancing around like a mad man.

Anyway, that's all I can think of. I could probably go on and on, but believe me, you don't want me to do that.

Peavy Rules!! Peavy for Cy Young!
