Keep On Running

Howdy folks. After a decent lapse, I’d like to bring you tales of a brilliant weekend in Fairchildland. DW, Sam Nice and myself are taking Bessie back to Beantown right now and I’ve been tasked to pick up the blog mantle after too many days of letting this thing go. We just went through a toll, paying the 60 cent charge with a five dollar bill. The operator looked at us as he made our change and stated plainly to Sam, who was in the driver’s seat in pure fact only: “You need a receipt.” It wasn’t a question.

Miss Fairchild Likes The Band

Despite having no pressing news and no fun travel stories about cheese and car trouble, I find myself with the time and the readership to necessitate frequent updates to this here blog.

[Ed. No pressing news, you say! What about the impending release of Ooh La La, Sha Sha… ??? That’s not pressing?]

Yeah, yeah, we’ve promising that for years.

[Yes, but this time it’s really happening. CD release parties have been announced in Boston, Providence, Portland, Nantucket & New York. There’s even a tour planned!]

Okay, fine, but that’s not why we’re here.

You see, I get requests to hear about the ins and outs of Miss Fairchild and believe me, I’d like to tell you. I’m sure you’d love to know that Samuel never finishes his breakfast or that Daddy Wrall uses seventeen feet of floss whenever he cleans his teeth. Maybe you want to know about Trick and Rocket’s sneaker preferences (they like shoes better, I reckon). Or maybe you want to know about me. I am, after all, your humble (laugh if you want, I won’t be sore) tourguide on this homemade rollercoaster called Miss Fairchild. Okay, fine, you don’t want to know about me…

I’m cool with that. This is a blog about the group, after all. What is Miss Fairchild like? What does Miss Fairchild like? (Well, the abstract answer to those questions will be answered soon in another blog.) As far as specifics go, however, I can say with a fair amount of certainty that we like The Band.
