Is this a bad sign?

I'm not much for reading into things, but it's possible this could be a sign. Anyways,

This past weekend was alot of fun, the friday night gig at the Eagles was slow, but saturday night made up for it. Since it was a 50th birthday party and most of the people attending were close to that age, i figured it would be more of a social event than a dance party. I was wrong. They didn't want to hear any old country, and they sure didn't want to hear Jane's Addiction, but they danced to every 60's and 70's rock song we could think of.

During one of the songs when Carl was playing a lead, this furry rodent looking thing comes running up on my side of the stage. It was moving too fast to tell, but i was sure it was a hairy nosed wombat since i had been watching Animal Planet before coming to the show. It then ran behind Dean, the bass player, and ended up on Carl's feet, right in the middle of his solo. Now normally, Carl doesn't mess up unless someone steps on his guitar cord, but with being somewhat of a schitzo anyways, this thing on his feet didn't set well. (isn't it odd that in most psycho movies the weirdo is named Carl?) Jerry, the drummer, can't see what's at Carl's feet because of his kit, but he can see that Carl is jumping up and down trying to use his guitar as a club, so he yells "verse" and starts singing so that the rest of us can finish the song while Carl crawls down from on top of his amp. The furry thing runs on off the other side of the stage, and disapears. Someone in the crowd said they thought it was a swamp rat, so i kept my wombat theory to myself since i'm not sure if there are wombats in Montana.

So we finish playing the gig, and start tearing our equipment down. Carl (the schitzo) is unplugging the main and monitor speakers from the back of the amps, when he jumps 10 feet in the air, screaming. Again. It appears that whatever ran across the stage earlier in the evening is hiding inside the back of the road box with the main amps, and was clawing and biting him as he tried to unplug everything. It turns out to be a wild cat that had snuck in from somewhere, and it was still hiding behind the stage curtains when we left. Nice kitty.......

Another Friday

Tonight we play at the Eagles Club, and tomorrow night we are playing at a birthday party for someone who's name i will not mention out of fear of getting beat up. Usually i'm not afraid of offending people since i can run faster scared than they can mad, but not this time. She may be 50, but she's athletic, toned, and she gets up early every day just to go running. HAPPY BIRTHDAY K@%$Y ! and here are some answers:

Being a non-drinking female, I can't help with the pick up line. What I would like to know is, do you use conditioner in your hair, or just let it get frizzy like most men?

You mentioned being in the dunk tank on Friday night. Are you sure you didn't mean to say "drunk tank"?

-While the "drunk tank" may have been more appropriate, i did mean to say "dunk tank"

Crab People

Okay, I just got through watching the new Triple X, and I have to say, I now know why Vin Diesel declined starring in the sequel. I like Ice Cube and all, but it sucked. I'm now watching South Park because it's more realistic. Which is hard to belive, since this episode is about the crab people taking over the world by making all the men metrosexuals. Go figure.

Saturday Night:


I ordered a pizza, locked the doors and I'm watchin' some movies. The new Triple X, then Anchorman with Will Ferrell. Such fun. Earlier this week, I saw a lady jogging downtown, carrying a box of donuts. Seemed kind of odd to me. Anyway, if you need some quality entertainment, check out the girlsandcorpses link at the top of the post.

Catching Up

It's been over a week since i posted last, and what a week it was. The dunk tank last Friday was fun, and i played in a golf tournament on Sunday. The rest of the week was cleaning house and getting ready for the Friday night gig at the Eagles Club, as well as my Aunt and Uncle from Kansas visiting for the weekend. The Eagles Club show was fun, not a large crowd but some of them were really in to it. One dancer flashed part of her boobs, so it wasn't all bad. The weekend with the family was fun. I tried to show my uncle how to play Green Day on his old Gibson, but he allowed there was no room in blue grass music for a song by Green Day. Oh well.

Tonight

I get to be the celebrity guest in the dunk tank at the Relay for Life cancer benefit tonight. They seem to think there will be enough of my past ex-girlfriends plus future ex-girlfriends there to make a lot of money from them dumping me in the water. Which could be true, i did actually meet two of my now ex-girlfriends at this event in previous years. It would be nice if it was a tank full of beer, but then again, i'm not going in it until later in the evening. After several other people have been in it. Now i'm starting to get grossed out. Oh well, it's for a good cause.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Just Wondering...

Does it make a person a redneck if their three favorite things are: nascar, folding chairs, and grilled cheese sandwiches? Hypothetical question, of course. Personally, i don't like folding chairs.

Since my success rate at picking up women seems to relate directly to the amount of alcohol in their system, i came up with a new pick-up line to try: "alcohol, if it's not in you, neither am i"

What do you think?
