It took me all night, but I worked up the nerve (thanks to the support of best friend Lisa ) to sing Blondie's "One Way of Another."The best part: the band is a real effing band! Rhythm section, base, guitar and keyboard. To top it off, the band members double as back-up singers.
There were at least 2 really good acts, complete with rock stylings and crowd-pleasing dance moves. I have no delusions of grandeur; while my vocals were decent, I stood up there like a log. I think my most creative move consisted of a nervous hip-swaggle.
Lesson learned: like the nerd that I am, I will practice lyrics and, that's right, dance moves. Alone. In front of a mirror. I will practice until my act reaches the heights of perfection, and then I will return to Stanley's and blow 'em all away.
Just kidding. I'm not that lame...(shuffles feet and avoids eye contact)
