You actually know that tune, sis? Ha! Did your "OLD" man turn you on to it, or did you come by it honest? I bet Thorny knows that tune. Maybe it's not as obscure as I thought.

Didn't know where else to put this so... Just logged off Janet Jackson's fan website and was able to purchase an advance fanclub member ticket for her Rock Witchu tour in Houston at the Toyota center on October 21st 2008. Yay! Got floor E row 5 seat 5. Here is a pic' of the seating at the venue, I got a GREAT seat! And the total ticket cost was only $144.00!  |

Maybe you could post it in, oh, I don't know.....LIVE SHOWS?
Of course you got a close seat (can't call it "good" now can I?). Nobody is buying them.

A friend designed the shirt I'm wearing for Madonna's upcoming Texas concert. The front says "behold she's coming soon" and the back says "11-16-2008" I just love the state of Texas lollipop: Front:  Back on segway:  |

I remember posting on the Welcome Board on my birthday back in August about how I celebrated my 33rd birthday in the form of band practice. Well, we got rid of the bass player from that time that was just entirely too high maintenance and have tried out two bassists since then, one of which is with us now and we are very happy with.
When I say "high maintenance" you have no idea. Trust me. He does what he calls his "ablusions" (sp?) every Saturday and Sunday morning. The way me and my drummer's work schedules are we can only practice on Saturday. So if this guy was going to make it to practice at noon, he had to be awake by 6am. Btw, that is NOT a typo. This guy spends six hours every Saturday morning showering, shaving, flossing, brushing, plucking hairs and God knows what else. On top of that he has a girlfriend that I call Yoko Ono. She WOULD break up the band if we kept him on. I told my drummer," I can put up with his ablusions or I can put up with Yoko, but I can't put up with both." And I meant it. He's still a good friend and has found another band to play with so it's all good.
The new guy we got is a metal head all the way. He's into Dragonforce, Slayer and all other kinds of death metal, black metal, speed metal etc. BUT he has a great appreciation for my favorite stuff too, like Zeppelin and Floyd to name 2, and Rush is just about his favorite band. The best thing about this new guy is he's way younger than both of us and has lots and lots of energy. He is a practiceaholic. He's constantly, constantly, constantly practicing the new songs we're working on his bass to where we can't keep up with him almost. This is a dream come true in a sense. He keeps us motivated like probably nobody else in this whole shit town could. I've picked out about 85% of the songs we're playing and it hasn't been a problem at all since they are both diggin' the shit out of playing 'em.
I've always said that I don't want to play a single song that I don't like AND I don't want either of them to play any songs THEY don't like either. But I had to bend and play "The Trooper" by Iron Maider even tho I don't particularly care for it. Here's the stuff we're working out right now in not order of any kind at all:
War Pigs
Helter Skelter
The Trooper
Tom Sawyer
YYZ
Time 4 Livin' - Beastie Boys
Santeria - Sublime
Dive - Nirvana
Wicked World - Black Sabbath
Cosmic Slop - Funkadelic
Who Knows - Band Of Gypsys
For Whom the Bell Tolls - Metallica
Warped - Red Hot Chili Peppers
and last but not even close to least, if not my favorite to play of these:
Amazing Journey/Sparks - The Who
Quite a setlist, eh? I'll keep you guys informed.
Oh shit, and our name, how could I forget that:
[glow=red,2,300]THE HOSTILE QUAKERS[/glow]

Well, the pickguard is kinda goofy looking, but the displeasure may be because it looks like a cross between a Gibson SG and a Stratocaster (a Fender guitar). Makes it look like a "generic" fictitious guitar from a cartoon or something.
