Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for January 31, 2024

She won’t like it when KC loses.

When Joe Cocker and his retinue arrived at our city’s theater and noticed that the provided piano was not their specified Steinway, they hollered at the local promoter. But at that late date, they saw their only choices as leaving without playing the concert or putting up with a perfectly good non-Steinway. They stayed. It was a great concert and their fans were happy. They didn’t sue. OTOH, Joe Cocker wasn’t Taylor Swift.

She’s gonna put crab cakes on her rider after this.

Build it and all the Driftees will come.

What a letdown for Ms. Drift. I don’t think there are 50,000 citizens in the lagoon.

He got “By With a Little Help” from his friends at WS.

There should be plenty of room for the fish and other sea critters to float around in the lagoon.

Maybe she likes crab…broiled, with melted lemon butter.

The Bandshell could hold minions! ")

Careful, Hawthorne, you’re counting your seahorses before they hatch.

How will she sing in SCUBA gear?

Fish don’t have a lot of use for seats, anyway

Mr. Toomey missed a chance to call the singer Sailor Drift.

It would be appropriate if Drift is a hagfish. ;)

Bide your time, Hawthorne. After this, you’ll be all washed up.
