instagram: camille and uncle ralph
Of all of the friends that we got to hang out with at Kindiefest this year, I think we’ve known Ralph the longest. We first met him over 9 years now … he was our very first kindie musician! In those nine years he’s been to our house; we’ve been to his. And Camille has
live in concert – ralph’s world
We’ve been planning all summer to make a trip up to Chicago but have been waiting for a convenient weekend that would also include at least one or two kindie concerts. And, finally, we managed to make it up north on the last weekend of August. As we were delivering a large object, we decided
with ralph – 27 aug 2011
After a relaxing morning and then a stop at the Stitches marketplace, we made it to the Palatine Street Festival where Chloe went in the bounce house, we had some pizza and then Ralph put on a great concert!
chloe rocks – 15 mar 2011
Chloe had to be prodded to go up and dance at today’s concert. But once she was up there, it was impossible to get her to stop rockin’ out.
ralphheads, really
Back in 2003 when we first met Ralph, Camille was 4.5 and Chloe was 6 months old, sleeping in the sling. I had a cell phone, but it didn’t take photos and certainly not videos. I can’t remember if I had a digital camera at that point, but I still relied on my SLR film
ralph’s at it again
I have just heard that All Around Ralph’s World will be out on Bar/None Records on February 9, 2010. If you know us, you know we can’t wait to hear it! Last month, when we went to see Ralph’s World perform at the XM Rumpus Room and at Jammin’ Java, we were treated to two

favorite things
the girls and I have some favorite things. one is to go to Ralph’s World concerts. Another is to go to concerts at XM radio in Washington, DC. I went back and forth on whether to make the trip this year (we did last year, but had the added bonus of seeing Rob who was
uncle ralph
Back in 2002, when Camille was four and Chloe was an infant, Rob was a member of eMusic.com. One night, he and Camille went searching that site for alternatives in kids’ music…we were SO tired of the drivel we had been listening to over and over. They both really liked music from a Chicago kids’
Ralph’s World XXIV
I haven’t made an exact count, but I think this was something like our 24th time to see Ralph’s World in concert, not counting Bad Examples shows, house parties and when we see two sets/concerts on the same day… And we never get bored! Well, Camille might be starting to get bored by it all,
House Party
On Thursday, the girls and I left DC around noon and drove right to the airport in Atlanta to pick up Rob. We got home around midnight. Friday, the girls and spent the day preparing for the big party! We went to the grocery store for food and also managed to get to the car
Ralph at XMKids
Wow! We got back from Texas on Wednesday night. We didn’t even unpack the car. Thursday, after classes, we headed right up towards DC. (Thankfully gas was to be found along the way.) Why such a turnaround? A couple of months bag, I noticed that Ralph’s World would be playing in MD/VA this weekend and
Back To Our DC Trip
The stars aligned, literally. When Disney announced the Disney Music Block Party Tour, I figured we just had to go. With a star ridden lineup of Ralph’s World, Dan Zanes and They Might Be Giants, how could we not go? I decided that the easiest show for us to get to (and perhaps one of
We Heart Ralph
I’ll have more to say later, but we’re headed out to our third concert of the day now.

Ralph’s World and The Bad Examples
The Bad Examples
Rob and I had a great time last night going to the Red Light Cafe to hear music from Ralph Covert’s (aka Ralph’s World) more “mature” band, The Bad Examples. I had a great time, and sure wish more folks had turned out. However, I can see that for parents, going out to an adult
can’t go too long without …
a Ralph fix. He played here in Atlanta this weekend, so it was an easy one to get! The show was great, the venue was very nice and we had a wonderful time. Thanks Ralph — Come back soon!
house party time
It was another big party! Lots of food, lots of music, lots of fun.
ralph’s world
To round out our trip to DC, we went to see Ralph’s World perform at National Geographic. It was a wonderful show as always, but it was missing that added spark that Tommy provides. Poor Tom’s back went out and he just couldn’t make it. Get Well Soon, Tom!
