From the DNC at Invesco Field

The mobile blogging experiment is a bust. The camera in my Sidekick 3 mobile phone just doesn't lend itself to capturing what's happening a skidillion miles from the stage. Jennifer Hudson has sung the "Star Spangled Banner" and Sheryl Crow ("A Change Would Do You Good;" "Out of Our Heads"), John Legend and Will.i.am ("Yes We Can"), Stevie Wonder ("Fear Can't Put Dreams to Sleep;" "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours") and Michael McDonald ("America the Beautiful") have performed one to three song sets. A better camera or seats are a prerequisite next time.

KRFC will be blogging from the DNC tomorrow

Former CheezTones bandmate, Jim Cullom, scored me a ticket for Obama's acceptance speech on Thursday. I will attempt to limit posts to musician sightings. Rumored performers have included Willie Nelson, Kayne West, and Bruce Springsteen, whose "handlers haven't denied the reports that the Boss will play Invesco Field after Obama's speech" acoustically. The Denver Post also reported that "Bon Jovi has no plans--and never had any plans--to come to Colorado during the [DNC, an] artists representative said Tuesday afternoon." I'm not a hater, but that news isn't tearing me up.

(I've been told mobile posts look like hell because text is uploaded using the screen parameters on your device. I'm not certain what that means, so stay tuned).
