The Sippy Cups at the Rumpus Room
Tonight we went to one of my favorite places to be – XM Radio. We saw a great band The Sippy Cups perform in the Rumpus Room … where else can you catch juggling, sumo wrestling, unicycle riding, and plate spinning live on the radio?? Chloe and Camille sang everyone waiting for the show; I
Live on the Farm
Yes, you read that right! The KPL Fans went to the Animal Farm this morning! And Chloe says that it doesn’t small bad. Chloe’s other observation is that everything on the farm is “awkward”. We had such a great time hanging with Kenny! We listened as he took some calls, including one from the kid
Lunch, At Long Last
As you may or may not know, along with having our own kids’ music station/blog, Gooney Bird Kids, we also run the Kids Place Live Fans blog. (KPL is the kids’ station on XM/Sirius Satellite Radio.) We’ve been fortunate enough to get to attend four different concerts in their Rumpus Room; the latest one being
Chloe’s “Second Favorite”
On our car trip to Washington, DC, Chloe called into talk to Robbie Schaefer at XMKids. She chatted and chatted and told him that she was heading to DC to go see her dad and to see Ralph at the XM rumpus Room. Chloe then said that Ralph is our “favorite artist.” Robbie was not
Touring at XMKids
As I’ve written before, one of my favorite places to visit is XM Radio in Washington DC. The building is a very cool brick building, giving off the feel of old factory space (I haven’t found a history of the building, but one page suggested that it had been a printing company. Along with that,
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
Home Again
Yesterday morning, I worked for a while, looked at the photos from Tuesday that I had been too sick and tired to deal with, then packed. I got the girls up and we went to pay the car’s hotel bill. By the time the car was all loaded and we hit the road, it was
City Life
We arrived in DC on Friday morning. Thankfully, there is a driveway at the apartment building, since there is no parking on the street during the week. We unloaded the car from there, then moved it. To the Ritz next door. Yes, the car has five star accommodations while we live in grad student quality.
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
Road Trip
The girls and I headed up to Washington DC for an XM Kids Rumpus Room concert. We got to see one of our favorites, The Hipwaders! While there, we went to the Postal Museum, Union Station, many Smithsonian Museums on the Mall and stayed at L’Enfant Plaza! It was a great weekend, and we can’t
scribblemonster
Today we drove to Washington, DC to see ScribbleMonster perform live at XM Radio! The show was tons of fun, and our host Mindy was super friendly and wonderful with the kids. It was wonderful to meet ScribbleJim in person, too! Thanks all for a great show!
