There's the link...
This weekend we played the 35th Annual Cochon De Lait at Louisiana College from 11 am until almost 2:30 pm (we always end up playing over for some reason!) In the later pic's you should be able to make out the stage debut of me playing the ukulele I picked up over in Hawaii - pieces of the day show were videotaped.
Later that night we played Brewzerz (from 9 pm until 1 am.) It seems that having a 3 week break and then doing 2 shows in 24 hours wore us all out! There were a few of the usual higher notes that I had to "dumb down" a bit to stay in key, but we finished alive!

The next image is the "final stage" of the Polynesian Tattoo right out of the chair...

And again 2 days later!

So, I played through having a torn tendon over my humorous and a fresh tattoo - then today I get results back from last weeks blood work, only to find I have low IgG levels (making my immune system wonky and me more succeptable to upper respiratory issues!) Well, that explains a lot - so now, I have to have an updated Pneumonia Vaccine and then more blood work to see if my levels change.
