for those of you who don’t know about this, a short explanation: our baseball team, the chicago cubs, were 5 outs from going to the world series, when on a fly ball, a fan touched the ball before the left fielder Moises Alou could catch it…it became a huge controversy because the cubs went on to lose the game (they were winning at the time) and the ball and the man who touched it became an instant part of local lore…anyway, the ball was auctioned off a few months back for $113,000 dollars u.s., being purchased by the restaurant…so to wipe the curse, they decided to blow the thing up, and I was roped in to be part of the spectacle…it was a lot of fun, good times as they say, and something to tell the kids I have not yet had about someday…the best part of all of this is they have used this event as a fundraiser, and so far have raised over 1 and 1/2 million dollars for the juvenile diabetes foundation…i brought along my good friend Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick, and we played a couple of tunes and shared a lot of laughs…it was crazy, because they had about 60 news crews there, all asking lots of strange questions about curses and whatnot, but hey, maybe they are right, maybe they are wrong…a curse only works if you believe in it…it is going to be an exciting year, this much I know (I\’m repeating myself I believe)…if you want more info on the whole deal, click here they are still selling t-shirts to raise money, and you can read all about it…besides all that, all is well…gonna announce the show soon for the acoustic music….the date we are holding is april 19th if anyone wants to make travel plans…it will be in chicago, and the venue is still to be decided…it will be a really special night, so I hope you will be able to come if it interests you…it will be my first solo concert (just me and my guitar) in chicago ever…sounds strange even to write it, but thatｹs just the way it\’s worked out…have a great weekend…stay safe
