Sometimes my St. Paul real estate clients don't reveal themselves until after they've purchased a house. It's fascinating to discover the hidden talents behind seemingly normal people who behave themselves quite nicely while shopping for houses from my car. Such is the case with the gentleman in the picture.
The closing was last summer on his house. The buyers joked about a practice room for the "boys", but it seemed to be just a joke. Unbeknownst to me, the band Chosen Robot was the "boys" and their practicing was serious rather than a joke.
Tonight I was privileged to attend a Chosen Robot concert at Station 4, a club at 4th and Sibley in lowertown St. Paul. As the clubbers would say, clubs are not "my scene", but Chosen Robot did not disappoint me. It was a delightful evening watching my "normal" (normal is only a cycle on the washing machine) client in a persona that surprised and entertained me for the evening.
Just imagine what I would miss if I had a desk job!
Steve, thanks for dropping by. Hope your study goes well. Make it real!

Bonnie, thanks for dropping into my family's site, just now finishing up prep for our study.
I too have been amazed to learn of latent and private talents of my clients. One a chef, one even a very talented blogger ... and I had no idea.

What a fabulous way to spend a Friday evening. Do they have a myspace page? I'm going to have to check. Awesome photo. Normal is highly overrated, talented much better!
