Brrrr. Alaska is different than Vegas

So, yesterday I shut my show down on the strip for 4 days to fly up with my assistant Kamela Brewer to Alaska. A month ago, Kamela put this deal together for me to perform up in the tundra! :-)

I performed Wednesday night in Vegas, and then was in bed by 1:30am. Only to be at the airport at 5:30am the next morning, or THAT morning to be exact. I was exhausted. Ugh. So we flew from Las Vegas to Seattle, then connected to Anchorage. From Anchorage we had to take this plane that was patched together with duct tape, to Kenai, AK. Kamela grew up in this area. Interesting little town, and I kinda feel at home here. It is very similar to Northern Alberta Canada, which is where I am from.

I met Kamela's parents, and they are really nice. VERY nice people! Kamela's mom owns a restaurant, and the food is fantastic. We went to 3 radio stations this morning to do interviews about the shows I will be doing. The radio jockeys were very pleasant and were accomodating.

I am just checking emails and doing some business right now and communicating with personnel in Las Vegas because I am back doing my show on Monday night. No rest for the wicked.

So, I am heading back to the venue to prepare for the show. I hope all of you are well back home in Vegas. I know it is warmer there, but I am kinda enjoying the cool air and the fresh air coming in off the ocean.

I also wanted to shout out to Barry Brewer, who apparently reads my blog regularily. You better volunteer to be hypnotized this weekend.
