Busy weekend these past couple of days ... my brother in law Ben is getting married in two weeks, so we rented an SUV Friday night, went to the Yankees game, hit up Chelsea Piers and also saw Zohan ... I was tired by the end of the night. The scoreboard worked out AWESOME - they announced it over the loud speaker and put it on the scoreboard - our message of "Ben - pregnant is not a good reason to get married" was rejected by Yankee Stadium staff. Haters.
Saturday was a night of chillin in Piermont, which is an awesome waterfront town underneath the Tappan Zee Bridge (if you've never been, I highly recommend the drive up 9W with the scenic overlooks to Piermont).
Sunday was the Steve and Nick band playing at Cool Beans - a coffee house with an open mic in Oradell. They did 4 songs - Welcome to Paradise, Say it Ain't So, 99 Red Balloons, and On Mercury (from RHCP's "By the Way"). They played really well and Nick did the German part of 99 Red Balloons flawlessly. Nick also played the entire Super Mario Brothers theme song on his bass while Steve warmed up... just when I thought "wow, he knows the entire theme song, that was impressive" - Nick said "now - let's go underground!" and began to play the music when Mario goes down the pipes. It was hilarious.
Pics and video shortly. Stand by ..
