Lube

I'm sure you're all reading this because of the title of this entry. For some reason while awaiting my $1 frozen pizza is dying in the oven I had a view of "I Love the '00s." (try and say THAT out loud). Actually the thing I was thinking of occured in the 90s but I still want to see how many people try and say '00s. Remember the Jiffy Lube wise guy? That guy was awesome. Back with radio was king (<== Sandi Thom reference) I know some of our readers were too young for him, but that's ok, I'll allow it.

Murder at 2001

So this morning around 3 I come home to half the people in my house up, which usually isn't the case. A quick check up with one of my housemates and this is what went down. So two people were involved, one being the other housemate. What they ended up doing was putting flour in pantyhose and putting the pantyhose on their heads and swinging them around trying to tag each other with flour in the ends. Somehow they ended up smashing heads and they ended up going to the emergency room and Julianne ended up getting stitches above her eye. Never a dull moment down on 2001.

Scare Tactics

Folks, I've been in some scary places. Downtown Nashville at night. Franconia at night (the parts of DC where you die, for those not familiar with District of Columbia topography), and now somewhere out in Columbia, Tennessee. We pull up to the place we're playing, litterally surrounded by cow farms (oh, and our competition for the crowd was a dirt track race and a rodeo). This place looks like a tin roofed ranch house. We walk in and there's rebel flags on the walls, pictures of naked ladies hanging in the bathroom, and cafeteria styled seating with folding chairs. If anyone has ever seen the movie Roadhouse, this place made that bar look classy. At least you could bring your own liquour. I didn't have a camera so I didn't shoot a picture, but I wish for everyone's sake that you never go to wherever the heck I was.

Living Among the Stars

I have decided to become an internet star. Sadly I've been sitting in my room watching VH1's top 20 internet stars and all of them, though I'm sure 80% I've probably seen via YouTube or some sort of media medium. Pretty much all of them have some sort of celebrity status and more importantly a couple are really, really rich. That and they played a lot of Jamiraquai during the episode. Cool. Update, Lonelygirl15 was #3 (never actually knew what that was until now) Star Wars Kid was #2. I'm cringing to think of what could have possibly topped him. What's continually ironic is I'm putting this down in a blog while pretending to pretentiously mock it. And #1 is.....Numa kid. Who remembers that? I don't. That was before the internet. And Futurama.

The Fireworks Failed to Impress

So happy July to everyone in cyberspace, just in case you didn't notice it was July or something. England was so foolish. All of this could've been theirs, but their traded it for weak tea and taxes. So no America for them. Now their just filled with regret over missed relationships. Or something. The weird thing about being a musician is things come in waves. A couple weeks ago I was about to die from everything I had to play for. This week I had only one gig, so I'm trying to stay productive. So I've been shopping for groceries at discount prices, cleaning, making potato carvings of Saint Jabanezer. Oh well, it's time to make spaghetti.
