Maybe it was the (psudeo)Millenium......mine was nice and quiet (real change!) No gig booked, so I went to a VERY quiet local, and had a *GASP* green Maragarita, just didn't feel like green beer or a long black. Was home by 8:30 PM local time. And I didn't have to play Danny Boy! (ya ya ya!)
But I did send 3 people a computerized "Chase the Snakes" Paddy's card! (sheesh, Americans)
