Mama Mia! Venus (is) In Overdrive

Hello, blog readers! How was your weekend? mine was very...musical. As you all know, (or you should anyway) Venus In Overdrive came out last week. My girls are enjoying the music as much as I am, and that's saying someting. Then, Friday night, we went to see Mama Mia!. I wasn't totally sure what to expect. I have heard good things about the stage show, and I knew it was base on/included ABBA music. I loved this movie! Great job on the casting (although the singing was okay), and the scenery was gorgeous. I think I'm going to Greece. :-) So, then Saturday, I boot up the desktop computer, and find the "old" Mama Mia! Soundtrack. You know, I one I got from the library like 2 years ago and nobody ever wanted to listen to. I made a CD. The girls are going back and forth between MM and VIO.

Lyric likes "Money, Money, Money" and "Thank You for the Music", "Saint Sahara" and "Jessie's Girl (acoustic version)".
Baby likes "Honey, Honey" and "Mama Mia", "What's Victoria's Secret?" and "Jessie's Girl (acoutstic version)"
Mommy likes "Mama Mia" and "Thank You for the Music", "Venus In Overdrive" and "Oblivious"

And Saturday night, we went to see "Thoroughly Modern Millie". Cute show, l o n g, but the girls enjoyed it. Their first babysitter was the lead.

Yesterday, I spend a couple of hours working on "A Soft Impeachment". Chapters 1-6 are done! It looks like the total will be nine or ten chapters, I am easily half was done. i just need a few more hours. Then a couple of clicks to uplaod to lulu and you all will be able to enjoy it too.

Venus Is In Overdrive

Today is the day. Venus In Overdrive is officially released...out into the world....I received my copy yesterday (thank you Best Buy) and I love it. Today's the day that counts. Last I checked it was #25 in music at amazon.com. What the heck are you waiting for?? Go buy a copy (Kmart, Target, Wal Mart, Best Buy) or order a copy (amazon.com, bestbuy.com, even itunes.com) As a long time Rick fan, I would love to see him hit the mainstream again.

There's a nice variety of songs- slow, fast, pounding guitars, I hear a little Stevie Ray Vaughn influence and a bit o' the Beatles. But it is all Pure Rick Springfield. Go get your copy TODAY. You will not be disappointed.
