reading

If any of you have an extra hour or so to waste check out this short story by F.Scott Fitzgerald. really good. fun read.

"In 1860 Benjamin Button is born an old man and mysteriously begins aging backward. At the beginning of his life he is withered and worn, but as he continues to grow younger he embraces life -- he goes to war, runs a business, falls in love, has children, goes to college and prep school, and, as his mind begins to devolve, he attends kindergarten and eventually returns to the care of his nurse.
This strange and haunting story embodies the sharp social insight that has made Fitzgerald one of the great voices in the history of American literature."

What are you reading?

my first blog.

I am totally excited to play Boston. I've heard lots of different things about it. good and bad. I've never been to the N.E. past new york city so new england in the fall should rock.
If anyone knows anything about it, let us know. We are all very ready to hit tour. hope to see many of you out on the road.
