We're Not Worthy!

That's how I feel after friend Jane Somers invited me and Kay to the coolest event: dinner backstage at the Riverside Theatre tonight! She was the winning bidder for dinner for 4 backstage at a WMSE private auction. It's described as:

THE BEST DINNER PARTY YOU’LL EVER HAVE. EVER. I MEAN IT.

It’s not enough that the Pabst Theater Foundation raised the bar for concert-going experiences in Milwaukee on Earth. Now they want to redefine dinner parties for you. Want the details? Well, I’m just going to go ahead and paste the copy they sent us describing their donated Food Slam auction item, because I’m getting a little light-headed from the awesomeness:

DINNER BACKSTAGE @ THE RIVERSIDE… WHERE THE BANDS DINE!

Here’s a unique venue for a dinner party. Chef to the Stars Kevin Sloan will cater a dinner for four guests BACKSTAGE in the Dining Room at the Riverside Theater. It usually requires a back- stage pass to experience this chef’s cuisine. The former restaurant owner who also worked at Sanford and Lake Park Bistro has created four-star meals for dozens of entertainers from The National to Neil Young. Mix and mingle with staff from WMSE and the Pabst Theater for an evening to remember.

You will win dinner for four people (4), and will be joined by staff from WMSE and the Pabst.

So as I was thinking "We're not worthy!" it really cracked me up to think that that's what Wayne and Garth said to Alice Cooper when they went backstage at - where else? - The Riverside Theater!! 

What a coincidence, huh? I am going to be saying "Thanks!" and "We're not worthy!" to Jane a lot!
