Shady Sadie is hitting the road this month! We’ll be in Boston and Chicago, doing some major appearances and signing some autographs, maybe taking some pictures with fans, maybe getting into the recording studio to lay down a few tracks - I don’t know, I don’t know if we’ll have enough time.

But here in beantown, the weather is perfect and of course the big news is that Manny Ramirez has left the Red Sox and been traded to Shady’s adopted hometown team (although we all have our childhood allegiances, kay?), the Dodgers. Big news, big news around here, we Bostonians loooooove us some Red Sox and we hate to see one of our best players go.

Maybe Manny will agree to talk to Shady Sadie though - we are, of course, a very big name on the sports scene.
