Media Encounters in Kalamazoo

Candace Beeke of the Business Review posts about Jimmy Kuehnle on the West Side Story blog

I wrapped up the central Michigan performance tour in Kalamazoo. Hello. Bye. took strong winds in stride and attracted the attention of a couple reporters. As I walked by the Kalamazoo Gazette building during my performance, two journalists from the Business Review came out to see what was going on. Candace Beeke wrote a piece on the West Side Story blog and mentions Super Mario Brothers, which is always cool.

I continued on my way after posing for a couple pictures. Toward the end of the performance the wind picked up and I began to head back to my car. The only problem was that in the midst of choosing a spontaneous route through the city, I did not remember precisely where I parked my car. As I wandered around the general area of where I figured my car was I bumped into Aaron Aupperlee of the Kalamazoo Gazette. He came over to ask what I was up to and asked me to pose for a couple pictures for a story he posted online.

It was great fun performing in Kalamazoo and it was nice to run into a couple members of the media along the way. There were smiles all around.
