My Zoo Tunes Volunteer Hat

I had the pleasure of volunteering at the WNKU booth at the Cincinnati Zoo this evening. Two wonderful bands - The Faux Frenchmen and the Pyschodots - provided the music. The Zoo provided a fabulous backdrop of tulips, crocuses and other spring blooms. The volunteers at our booth promoted the station, handed out fans and magnets and applied neat little tattoos on little arms.

Best of all, many friends stopped by to say hello. Carol, Jan, Julie and many others. It was great to see and hear Rob Fetters, one of my favorite local musicians. His band, the Pyschodots, played songs that I had originally only heard in acoustic, stripped down versions when Rob came to the Leo Coffeehouse.

I was as silly as a schoolgirl when he said he really liked my CD. Positive feedback from a musician who I admire makes the thrill of the project even sweeter.
