Like A Gazelle With Post Nasal Drip

Okay. It was rough. My nose didn't stop running all night, so I put a Kleenex box backstage behind the drum platform and every time there was a bit of a gap between songs, I booked it back there, bent down (so as not to be seen) and blew my nose heartily. Quite graceful.

Barry Gibb was backstage with us, which totally blew my mind. It took every fiber of my being to keep from busting into "How Deep Is Your Love."

J.Lo didn't show. Nor did Marc Antony. But guess who did?

No, really. Guess! Okay, you'll never guess.

Vanilla Ice.

...For real.

  1. OMG!! Barry Gibb?!?!?! WOW MIKE! I love the sketch that Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake did on SNL a few times of him and his brother Robin - The Barry Gibb Talk Show:). If I saw him, I would be wondering what he thought of it and if he laughed or snarled. I definitely heart the Beegees though - "chest hair" and "crazy cool medallions" or not:)!

  2. My friend Jon Black (International Acoustic Music Assoc. Song of the year winner) does a killer rendition of Ice Ice Baby. I loved the Ice's cameo in the New Guy.

  4. Mike, sorry to hear that you are still feeling lousy, but it will get better soon, I am sure. It just has to run its course.

    Wow, Barry Gibb, is one of my favorite entertainers. That is so cool that you got to talk to him.

    Too bad Jlo and Mark didn't make it. They missed a great show.
