Well, this weekend Nicki and I got to go to the prom together. We didn’t get to go together for my senior prom (Nicki would have been in 6th grade!) but we made up for it this Saturday when Antone threw a prom for his and Janet’s anniversary (Janet never got to go to her prom in high school).

Memphis Blues Brothers

This prom was held at Adam Shaw’s studio on Broad, with lights and music provided by DJ TimmyB and Inked Monkey Productions. There was food, dancing, and a “One Night Only” special perfomance by Soloman and Linwood Blues. There was also a crowning of the king and queen of the prom!

Kevin crowns the King and Queen of the Prom- Janet and Antone

We all had a great time dancing for the second weekend in a row (and my feet were reminding me the next morning!), and was a kick to see everybody dressed up.

Anakin can't believe his eyes!

Happy Anniversary to Antone and Janet- and happy prom to everyone.

It’s a small show, but a lot of fun- and is only about 2 1/2 hours from Memphis, and not too far from Lambert’s Cafe- in fact, it’s on the way there and back! Mmm…throwed rolls..!
