As Eamon and Nancy said in their invite, “As you know, it is a rare event that we have a party, so, we are calling it a Blue Moon Bash!” You had me at party!
For the curious, the last blue moon was 08/31/12 and the next one is 07/31/15. In any event, we don’t exactly need a lot or prompting to gig, so gig we did at the Tighe house!
Thanks to Wendy Oltsik, Eamon Tighe, Amy & Chris Miles, and Julie Greenspan for the pics! We love you mans!
