"Give. Me. The. Treats."
#CatsofBlueSky
SanFran, a longhair calico cat, sits on top of a scratching post, starting pointedly and imploringly at her human, who is too dumb to give her all the Treats.

Here's what the Melody Maker had to say about the show. It was pretty special #TheSundays
THE SUNDAYS' SECOND COMING is so utterly majestic, so unquestionably celestial, so distinctly holy, that it is too good. They are too good to be true. The problem is we don't deserve them. Us mere mortals, with our pollution, our litter, our bad manners, our belches: we are not fit for this — this snow-voice, this chorus, this deity, this love.

Nala is a shy cat, but she loves napping in a sunny spot #CatsofBlueSky
Nala, a shy tortoise cat, rests quietly on a wood floor next to the back of a rattan sofa on a sunny day. Window frames form shadows on the floor.

Pedalboard for my acoustic instruments for Mean Girls. I'm playing steel string and nylon-string acoustics, Tenor Banjo, ukulele and mandolin. This board EQs and switches them all, then routes the signal to a DI, which sends it to the house mix. #MeanGirls #MusicalTheatre #GuitarSky

SanFran caught my mouse. No work possible... #CatsofBlueSky #Caturday
SanFran, a longhair calico cat, lies across a desk in front of a computer with a computer mouse between her paws. Under her head is a piece of sheet music, which I'm supposed to be studying...

There is a mandolin tucked away out of sight at the back, plus a ukulele. No baritone in this show (although I have one!). I don't have a Tenor Guitar though, and Christmas is coming...

@iambrandicarlile.bsky.social made a surprise appearance for the encore of the magnificent I'm With Her show at the Moore Theatre this evening. It's a folk supergroup, plus Brandi Carlisle - amazing stuff.
