sound check

mile high blue sky

G: He's got a good strong handshake.

Me: How did it compare to the Pope?

G: Right up there.


Email thread with my brother G who just drove away from Mile High Stadium after a sound check with Barack Obama in preparation for tomorrow night’s speech. He'll return to the stadium sometime before 8AM before it goes into lock down prior to the event.

G and his crew took a group shot with the Junior Senator from Illinois and shook his hand before Obama ran through the last speech he gave to the DNC -- four years ago -- to check the sound system.

G was also on hand when Pope John Paul passed through Denver some years back -- so of course I had to pose the question that was on everyone’s lips.

Hoping for a few pics before the event, and G’s promised a recap of how it all comes down as a detritus exclusive. So stay tuned.

It may not be live blogging, but it’s, well, blogging.

ooh, that's so exciting! it feels good to be excited for this, doesn't it? excited for something? hoping for something? instead of being scared of everything?

I think so.

I hope so.

I'm still a little bit scared though: afraid I want it too much.
