I’m in a hurry as I’m travelling today… But here’s a quick pick to show you where I was last night:
New bass player
Got a call from the singer/guitar player. We’ve been playing tons of gigs with a fill in bass player since our regular player moved to Portland. We’ve been frustrated with the fill in as he doesn’t know more than half the tunes we play. And he doesn’t seem to know any of the “cool” half either.
So the call was a voicemail letting me know we have a new bass player and “she’s cute.” Hmm… Interesting.
Chicks flashing their tits
Just another regular gig for me last night:
1. Bashed the shit out of the drums
2. Chicks flashing their tits at the band
Rock & roll been bery bery good 2 me.
I have some new buddies, the band Bowling For Soup. I met them on my big golf trip in Denver a couple of weeks ago. I was supposed to play a round of golf with them, but their tour bus was late getting into town. Here are some pics.
I’m already getting people asking me who “the blonde” is. Let me just say I golfed with her in Denver, she handles a stiff shaft with an oversized head like a pro, wears a g-string and has a tattoo above her bootie. The rest I’m not telling… 😉
Maynard Ferguson died
I’m kind of bummed to hear about the death of Maynard Ferguson. He died on Aug 24th 2006.
When I was a kid, and later a growing musician, I loved Maynard. I must have seen him perform live at least 10 times.
RIP Maynard. I hope your trumpet is screaming wherever you are now.
