As you may have gleaned from my Twitter, Mike and I performed at Bonnaroo last weekend (insert enthusiastic guitar riff here)!
I can sum up my twenty hours in Manchester, Tennessee with this series of haikus:
Sunday morning flight
A-twitter with excitement
(Note to self: must Tweet.)
Heard Band of Horses
Couldn’t see ‘em, but enjoyed
Next time: in-person
Met Of Montreal
Cool guys! Cool tunes! Rock n roll!
Not cool: the heat. Oof.
Butterfinger Sweet
SWEET — AC! Thank you, Nestle!
Plus: packed to brim. Nice.
Nick Kroll, Kristen Schaal,
Margaret Cho… Funny peeps!
We ate popsicles
Daily Show chillin’
Wyatt Cenac, Rob Riggle…
RV straight up fly
Scored some killer swag
Free sneakers: Converse, Tiger
So rocked my new kicks
B-finger contest
Super fun meeting winners
Amazing folks all
Golf cart shuffling
Five interviews and two shows
Left phone in van. Oops.
All in all a blast!
Thanks Butterfinger! You rock.
Now: catch up on sleep
Showalter out.

You're a clever one, Showalter.
(is it weird that my distorted words are "show" and "renewed"? I thought it was. Whatever!)

Awww, it IS Mr. Sho's birthday. Neat. Thanks for the birthday haikus.
I have loved haikus,
since the dawn of time and space.
But also Lymrics.
Good day, you are awesome, and great show!

Thanks for your review in haikus (hey, that kind of rhymes). Just from seeing the line-up on the poster- looks like it was an awesome time!! Hope you're having a great birthday, today!
