Funny you should mention that, Dan. I was just about to post a question about all the outdoor parties I've been doing this year. It seems to be way more popular than in prior years. I did an outdoor wedding in a TIKI bar last week, and a pool party today. I came home from the wedding with flea bites all over my ankles!!!!!! There were 18 cats, 3 dogs, 2 goats, 2 parrots and God knows WHAT else running around this miniature tropical paradise. It was a really cool setting, but my legs itch like crazy !!!!!!

I once had a guy ask me to propose to his girlfriend in my Phantom costume. I perfomed my little "mini-show" and then walked out into the audience towards the couple. I wrapped the girl inside my cape and gave her his ring. It was way cool.
I also had another proposal on the dance floor of the Crap Trap (my summer gig). The deal was - to play "I can't help falling in love with you" (Elvis) and after the chorus....stop the music and wait for the guy to get down on one knee and say the words... Right ON the dance floor !!!!!!!!
Jim Morrison said it best:
"People are strange!"

Hi Dave,
I think it's "Crab" Trap.
