Me and Steve

 Oh, hello.  That's just me and Steve Martin.

I took these two in Lauren's apartment (that's her on the right) and as you might imagine my yesterday was amazing.  Steve Martin played the banjo with the Steep Canyon Rangers and if you want that same experience in your living room turn on the Jimmy Fallon show tonight.  He'll be there!

Ok, it won't be exactly the same.  You can stand next to the TV and take a picture with him if you really want to though.

Did you know he was nominated for a Grammy for best Bluegrass album?  Cool.

How did it happen?  Well, Lauren invited me as her guest for the evening and I accepted and took the bus home early from DC (where I was visiting Amanda).  Steve (that's right. first name basis.) had seen a video of Beirut and Brazilian Girls that had been filmed in her apartment and wanted the same vibe.  So, there we have it.  AMAZING!

Yes, please move here. Thanks!

Also, excuse my crazy face. Lauren is an excellent photographer, I'm just not the best model. Oh well, Steve steals the show!
