Weekend Wind-Down House Guest: Captain #1

CAPTAIN #1 8e

This past weekend's WEEKEND WIND-DOWN HOUSE GUEST is being brought to you several days late, due to some technical difficulties with the always glitchy MySpace...BOO!...so, apologies to everyone, especially to our friends, TIM and JENNY, who comprise the sweetly dynamic duo known as CAPTAIN #1, proud members of the BRANCH COLLECTION music collective. We just played a show with Captain #1 this past saturday and, as always, they were a joy to listen to and watch. There's a bit of video from their performance, two posts back, demonstrating their how engaging they are live. When Jenny's not busy playing with Captain #1, she's busy crafting up a storm as PRAIRIE DOG, INC....you can check out Jenny's ETSY shop HERE, or you can buy her cute crafts in person at the INDIE CRAFT EXPERIENCE craft sale in ATLANTA this Saturday (we'll be there, too!)...and don't forget to check out the Captain #1 MySpace page HERE.. Listen to some tunes buy some CDs, and add them to yer "friend list"...

TIM - Writing a song with Jenny while sitting in bed late Wed. night.
JENNY -The fruition of the "Beardie" pin. (check out my etsy shop)

WORST MOMENT OF THE PAST WEEK?
TIM - I was eaten by a bowling machine. I have a part time job fixing bowling machines and Friday night one came alive while I was in it and it scuffed up my legs pretty good.
JENNY -work just kinda sucks in general right now, i.e. crappy management.

FUNNIEST MOMENT OF THE PAST WEEK?

JENNY -Jesse hugging another guy he'd never met at the request of Gemini Cricket
