08:04 Good morning tweeple. Just so you know, I've moved the story feeds that had been coming to @albanytuarts to @timesunionarts if you want them

08:05 @tuner I think you're right -- Niskayuna is where clear channel is. I can't remember where the Colonie-Nisky divide is on Route 7

09:09 @andrewbadera it seems many tweeps prefer human tweets instead of automatic feeds, though lots of news orgs. use auto feeds

09:14 @andrewbadera That totally makes sense to me; though I do like the links I get from some news orgs and bloggers

10:49 This is Danielle, Twittering now from the Proctors inauguration party. So far, it's pretty subdued, about 120 people watching the big screen

10:51 The crowd clapped as CBS showed Obama coming out to get in the van and head to the Capitol.

10:55 The crowd is taking pictures of the screen, but is generally really quiet. Much different from the rowdy EMPAC election party.

11:04 Bill of Albany said he is proud to be here for a day his parents thought they would never see. This is a day of firsts, he says.

11:11 Some maroon keeps flashing the screen with a laser pointer. Is this high school?

11:18 The folks in the box office and coffee bar are watching the big screen outside. They don't seem to mind not being in here.

11:24 Janiqua, 14, of Schenectady, said she believes an Obama presidency will mean more equal rights for black Americans.

11:39 The crowd goes wild as Obama walks out. Obama looks very serene.

11:42 This theater is almost full now. There are maybe 250 people here now, more streaming in by the minute.

11:44 Obama is getting a standing ovation from this crowd

11:50 Controversial pastor Rick Warren is now leading a prayer. I thought there might be some protest from the Proctors crowd, but there was none.

11:54 Aretha! That's a big bow!

11:58 Biden's in! The crowd is cheering loudly, but saving some restraint for the main act.

12:05 The television just announced that Bush's term expired at noon

12:06 Everyone in the theater is standing and screaming!

12:27 Another standing ovation for Obama's speech. I think this crowd will leave the theater possessing a little more hope than when they came in.

12:43 Heidi from Conn. was moved to tears and said she thinks Obama is absolutely right in saying that all Americans must do better.

19:00 Here at the Bye Bye Bush Bash, the crowd is dining and Jug Stompers are setting up.

19:05 The Jug Stompers just started with "Midnight Special." The crowd cheered loudly when the guys announced this was a goodbye to Bush party.

19:14 The crowd is mostly baby boomers. There's much chatter as they enjoy their meals. I think they are anticipating the hardcore bush bashing.

19:18 Bowtie said they've rewritten a number of their songs to cram in as much witty satire as possible in five minutes.

19:19 "White House for sale or rent" Nice.

19:31 The Firlefanz Puppets have just taken the stage. There's Cheney and a giant-eared Bush. They are popping off one-liners. The band is backing

19:34 Cheney: "What do you think about Rowe versus Wade?" Bush: "They are both good ways to get out of New Orleans." Groan...

19:45 "Eight long years and what do you get? A war in Iraq and deeper in debt." The entire audience is singing along.

19:48 The band just announced that Ruth Pelham won't be here because she got a ticket to the inauguration and is leaving on an early morning bus.

19:51 Time for a short intermission.

20:15 The band is back on stage. They'll have three guests this time, including the puppets again.

20:24 Steve is guesting on the Incredible String Band's "The Minotaur Song." Ok, we've entered hootenany territory.

20:29 Wild Bill is doing his impression of, um, I'm not sure who, but it involves lots of props, including a tangerine.

20:31 Everyone is singing along to "Hit The Road, George." Obvious, but still funny and kind of cathartic.

20:34 Time for another guest. A.C. Everson, who will do some poetry even though her "karma might take a few hits."

20:35 And there's a "ghoul grey" Bush pinata.

20:38 Her poem was "Bye Bye, Bushy."At the end of the poem, she broke open the head of the pinata and said "see, there's nothing in there."

20:41 The contents of the pinata were a bunch of refrigerator magnets of Bush standing in red flames.

20:45 Will Bill is playing an amplified typewriter as a percussion instrument. I love it.

20:53 The puppets are back.

20:58 None of those jokes were worth repeating. Groan groan.

21:19 The show's over. At the last minute, Wild Bill grabbed the Condoleeza puppet and announced that she would be playing piano there every week.
