Doing a show, especially a show like ours four to six
times a night, can be more than enough work to keep you occupied.
However, the nature of the business is that there's alot more
to be done than just getting on and off stage. A big part of
that is press and promotional work. Fortunately for us, unlike
some shows where we are responsible for all our own publicity,
the Universal PR department was handling the advertising. Even
so, there was still something for us to do. I had been contacted
by Bubba the Love Sponge about the possibility of doing an interview
on his morning radio show back when this run was in negotiations
and as a result we had waited to see if I might be able to actually
come to the studio while in Florida. Everything worked out and
was cleared by Universal PR, so we planned a trip from Orlando
to Tampa to do the show.
PR is almost always either a great deal of fun or a tremendous
pain in neck - this was alot of fun. Bubba and his crew were
great and I almost forgot about how early in the morning it was
and how little sleep we had gotten. We even tried to arrange
a return appearance but unfortunately our schedule didn't allow
it - but I'll definitely be looking to swing in again next time
I'm in the area.
After leaving the radio station we took advantage of the trip
by visiting the nearby Dali museum.
