While relaxing here in sunny, hot (110 degrees) Las Vegas for 4 days with Kellie after a very busy month and a half, I realized that I had not posted a new blog in about a month. Part of the reason was because my blog was down for about a week due to maintenance.

Earlier this month we did the first full “Teen Idols” concert at the former Westbury on Long Island in New York. The theatre has changed names so many times I’m not quite sure what it was called the week we were there. Anyways, the show was incredible. One of the highlights was when Peter and Micky had an American Idol moment…Peter was Simon and Micky was Paula and they rated Mark’s performance of his hit “Just Like Me”. But the funniest moment for me occurred during Peter’s portion of the show when he did his impersonations of Micky and Mark. A great time was had by all and the audience loved it. Below is a picture of the “Teen Idols”.

The day after we headed to Georgia where Peter Noone and his Hermits headlined a British invasion concert that also featured Peter & Gordon and two of my dear friends Joey Molland (Badfinger) and Terry Sylvester (The Hollies). It was nice being able to hangout and catch up on each other’s lives.

Last Wednesday Frankie G (Coming Undone) and I attended the Taurus Party. It was the first one I was able to attend in the past three years due to my touring schedule. It was great seeing old friends John Gorman, Murray Saul and writer Deanna Adams among others.

I fly back home to C-town tonight just in time for my Mad Cactus Thursday. Mike Hudak will be filling in for Billy Sullivan. Also, this Friday will be another “Spina, Sullivan & Hudak” reunion, this time at the Rush Hour Bar And Grille. Yes, we are doing a reunion show at a club we never performed in when we were together…should be fun. See ya then!!!!!
