Little Red Airplanes and Deedle Deedle Dees

So last spring, Stefan ran a very cool contest, where the winner could suggest a historical figure about whom the Deedle Deedle Dees would write a song. Katy won and gave four suggestions.

If you haven't listened to yesterday's show yet, you should, as they play it on there, and it's pretty great. "Little Red Airplane" is about one-time Northampton resident Amelia Earhart (who, you may recall, Ella dressed as for Halloween in 2006).

You can see a very brief clip of the song live at the big rock show yesterday here:



...and you can see a set of pictures from both the radio show and the public performance here. As you can see, the littlest Dee (little two-year-old Hazel) needed some time with Ulysses S. Dee, and a concertgoer was kind enough to lend them a front carrier. So be especially impressed by the rawking abilities when also carrying a toddler.

We raised a nice chunk of money for Flywheel, and I can't wait for them to reopen.

(Keep your eye on this space, by the way. Big announcement coming soon.)
