Post Game Wrap Up

Silence has overtaken my household. Quite a different story just a few hours earlier. And while we didn't achieve full blown three ring circus status, we came dangerously close. Perhaps a two, or 2.5 ring circus.


I dunno.



What I do know is there were children running, physicians dictating, consumption of allegedly undercooked meatballs (no worries, sauce covers a multitude of culinary sins), & a couple of musicians banging around on their respective instruments.




These days, we posses unprecedented technological advances in the form of iphones, twitter, & Zuckerberg's wee little innovation, to name a few. Yet we all seem just as emotionally/physically depleted & lonely as ever. Therefore, a night of slow cooked food, & music that is actually performed by humans (as opposed to a cold, sterile compact disc, aka "canned music", or worse, mp3) is not only a rare treat imho, it's a necessity.


That being acknowledged, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to those who attended & participated in tonight's gathering- particularly Mrs. Chessking, who sacrifices greatly to make these evenings successful. Would also like to thank Bobby "Double B" Bailey, who continues to put in mucho practice hours not to mention hauling drums across town every other week for rehearsals. While challenging to pull off, I dare say we do a bang up job utilizing the resources & narrow window of time each of us posses.



So....What Chicago song will the good Chessking cover next month?


Details after the game. ;0)


Hint: It was the #1 song of the year in nineteen hundred and eighty eight.
