Actually, 3.5 years ago. August 2, 2005. I actually do pay attention to suggestions :) And I said I was open to doing a small show, which is what we ended up doing (eventually!). Glad it finally happened though. And now that we've broken the Will...
Neal, I told you so, about 3 years ago..not enough draw, etc..? Thanks for having him here in ABQ, I am in CO now, but Willy is a treasure as a musician & a person. Keep up the great work, ABQ is way special and your efforts really contribute to t...
Thanks for all the comments. I'm glad everyone had such a good time. Sorry I didn't get to visit more. It was my first time seeing Willy too, and I was blown away. Not only did he put on an excellent show, but he was a joy to work with too. We'll ...
It was a great show! Pretty rare to see such a great musician in such close quarters. Never thought I would see Willy Porter in an Albuquerque steakhouse! Awesome, thanks to Neal Copperman for setting up a great show.
I didn't get to go and I am so jealous... I love Willy and have seen him many times - I am from Wisconsin and so is he. He is a fabulous musician and all the shows I have been to have been great entertainment. The best song I have heard him perfor...

Thanks to the tickets I won here on DCF, my husband and I went to the Willy Porter show last night. It was an amazing show! Willy Porter is an incredible musician, talented, inspiring and funnier than hell! I haven't laughed so hard in years. He made me cry, laugh and just plain sit in awe o… Continue

This Week's Inspiration: Motorcycle Ride!


My inspiration for this week was an amazing, fun filled motorcycle ride in the East Mountains with my artist friend, Jacqui. The weather was perfect, sunny and warm. I've been telling Jacqui that I really want a motorcycle… Continue

Paula,

I am organizing a veterans painting workshop and exhibition for The War Experience Project in August in Albuquerque. Please visit my website www.warep.com

If you have any interest or ideas of people to contact to reach out to veterans in the area, or galleries that may be interested in hosting the exhibit after the workshops during the 14-21 of August please let me know. I would appreciate it.

Hey Paula, It looks like rain for our Saturday motorcycle ride. I'll keep you updated just in case it actually is true! Would there be another Saturday , just in case? I hope all is well!

Paula I really enjoyed being at your house last weekend. Love the house, the stories about parenthood, the room full of records........it was just amazing.
The Alibi needs to do a story complete with photographs of your dads record collection.
Also, I truly think that your and Aarons idea for the trailer on the other side of town for the kids when they get to the moving out age would make a fantastic sitcom

Hi Paula. Sorry I haven't been to any of the sketch groups lately. I injured my right shoulder area on Jan 1 (translate excrutiating agony for ten days or so, and constant pain still...) and can't even get out of the house - life has been on hold ever since. (Plus, my computer went kablooey at the same time...) So, it may still be a while before I can re-enter the world. Not a fun way to start a new year. But, I didn't want you to think I was merely uninterested! Loved reading about your bald eagle moment. I have seen them at the Bosque del Apache.

Paula! And the whole Chroma Chrew,
Glad you got to see DD's show, it was really nice. She's an interesting and engaging artist! Seems like I'm hearing the word "Chroma" around a lot lately, too. Seems you guys are keeping some serious coal on that fire. I'll have to get over and check out the auction, sounds cool. Can't hit the opening, but another time. Cheers!
