In certain ways I think I had the strangest moment in my life on Friday night.  I made sure to hit “record” in my brain so I could relay this to you all this morning.

If you’ve ever been “backstage” at the Hotel Utah in San Francisco, you would know that it’s more like a garage, complete with shelves holding cans of paint, a cold cold cement floor, and dozen circuit breaker boxes… only it’s just three feet wide.

I’m no snob – this is surely an unconventional backstage, but this fact merely added to the strangeness of that moment.  There I was, with a Budweiser in my hand… in a bunny outfit.  There was even a mirror so I could marvel at myself the whole time I was waiting for Felsen’s seventh song of the evening, “Two Utensils In One”, my big moment to arrive onstage and make my debut as The Felsen.

Andrew Griffin, songwriter and frontman of Felsen, told the crowd that the Felsen is “a mythological half man, half rabbit with tremendous musical and reproductive prowess.”  I have spent a considerable amount of time perusing the net for anything to support this fact to no avail.

Oh well
