THURSDAY
I got the weekend cracked open Thursday night checking out a show at World Café Live, right off the campus of UPenn. We checked out Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers. We had a nice little group of us hit the show including my wife Kris, my buddy Trip from the Wachovia Center and his wife and my friend Megan and her friend Katelyn. My old boss Neil is the GM there, so he hooked us up with some cocktails and some private upper level seats. If you ever check out a show there, ask is if the balcony is open. A couple of notable no-shows, my buddy Devo, who owns his own business couldn’t make it since he had deliveries (kegs, etc) and my buddy AJ and his girl Heather. Not terribly disappointed they didn’t make it. All good. Great show, great set list, great venue. The only this was that I had a ticket on my windshield when I came out. Booo Philadelphia Parking Authority!!!!!

FRIDAY DAY
I was supposed to meet the band Rascal Flats to play a round of golf at Hartefeld. Hartefeld is one of my clients and it would have been good if we could have gotten some celebs out there to play the course and get a buzz. I show up at the course and minutes later, I get an email/phone call saying the band got a late start and wouldn’t be able to make it. Oh well, no worries. I joined a twosome and playing a round with the Brothers Murphy. I shot pretty well, breaking a 100 at the tough course, which I was happy about. I stopped home for a quick change and to pick up my credentials

FRIDAY NIGHT
Was supposed to coordinate a meet and greet with Rascal Flats and the Reid family. Everyone was there… except for Andy. Oh well. They showed up a couple of people short, so I was able to squeeze in Carol Wilson, her husband and their daughter Kaitlynn, into the meet and greet. All went well, spent some quality time with EFC big-wigs Larry Magid, Geoff Gordon and Michael Lessner. Look for some notes on the evening in Dan Gross’ column this week in the Daily News.
