Keeping Secrets

Have you ever found out some exciting news and wanted to share it with the world but couldn't? Yeah, that's what its like when you are the wife of a musician who is doing great things. Whenever you land a big show and are notified, 9 times out of 10 the announcement from the venue/promoter hasn't been made yet, so you have to bite your tongue and keep this exciting news to yourself until that announcement has been made. Its like finding out the gender of your child and you have to wait for the reveal party. ITS SO HARD.

The email came through saying "Good news!! Finally got the green light, We can 100% add you to the bill for the Big Boi show next Saturday." This came through on a Friday, the announcement wasn't made until Monday. It was crazy, because when the Mercury Ballroom made the announcement, it was like finding out all over again. Rmllw2llz is the opener for Big Boi on his Daddy Fat Saxx tour on his Louisville stop. How crazy is that. 

As the wife, I go into brag mode, which I shouldn't do, but I cant help it. I've been with this man since the beginning of his career here in Louisville and to see him go from Solidarity (which is now closed) to opening up for names like Rakim, David Banner, Raekwon and now Big Boi. Yeah Im going to give my man some shine. Hell he deserves it. He works a full time job, part time job, is a father, husband, radio personality, and emcee. Tell me that he isnt out here working and I have some swamp land in Nebraska to sell you.

Needless to say, if you're reading this and in the city of Louisville or surrounding area, come out and support someone who is putting on for the city and see Sir Lucius Left Foot while you're at it.
