Wiggles the Fish spends a day at the park!

Wiggles the Fish was a BIG HIT! We were so glad he was able to join us at the Tumbleweed Festival on Saturday (9/01/07).... Thanks to everyone who came out and joined us for some great music and fun at Howard Amon Park. The weather was perfect and we really had a great time singing, moving and grooving out with the folk crowd!

Excited to share the music!!

We're excited for all the upcoming shows!! September will be a month full of concerts, wiggles and festivals! Tomorrow is the Tumbleweed Festival in Richland (9/01/07) - bring the entire family and come enjoy some incredible music in the park.
Catch Tory live at 2 pm on the River Stage.

And again at 5 pm on the West Stage - for the songwriting festival :)

Be on the lookout for a BIG fish - roaming the park ....

Hope to see you tomorrow!

The creation of Wiggles the Fish!

Have you ever tried to create a life-size costume of a fish?
Yeah, this is new for us too! It's been very fun and exciting to watch the fabric come to LIFE ... Special thanks to Jill Lichfield for her exceptional sewing talent and creative eye. Thanks also to Robert Lichfield for being the avid fisherman that he is - his knowledge of a fish's anatomy is truly stellar :)... (He actually drew the dorsal fin pattern piece for Wiggles)! If you'd like to meet Wiggles the fish - Look for him at the Tumbleweed Festival (around 1:45 at Howard Amon Park) in Richland, WA - Feel free to bring your camera so you can 'hook' a photo :)

Tory will be performing at the Tumbleweed Music Festival at 2:00 and again at 5:00 pm as part of the songwriting contest! His song: “The Legend of Déjà vu.” is a finialist ... It's going to be a fun day (full of music) at Howard Amon Park in Richland. We look forward to seeing you there! :)
