And then there are all of those other nasty blogs out there that look like the front yard of an abandon house... but this here blog has a supper show that it must answer to.

Ok what is the routine... review last weeks show and promote that show that is now like 22 hours away.

Longtime bredrin of the Canada Lynx camp King Dinosaur came to play a show to commemorate the release of his latest CD "King of the Kootenay". He brought 11 and some folk went home empty handed. Myself i had received a copy of King Dinosaur "Kings Classic", which happens to be a one off with original hand drawn art that contains the first half of both King Dinosaur's CD's.

King Dinosaur doesn't trouble with originals and is more of a translator of classic music... stuff like Casey Jones, Ramble on Rose, The night they drove old Dixie down, Wisky in the jar... I recall one bystander at a King Dinosaur show, i think it was Vancouver, Plaza of Nations 96' declared it an old school open handed five finger musical spanking... I think it was 96'... yea... he might have played Nelson in 98' and i think he was in Mission in 99', but i know i wasn't.

King Dino had a small technical difficulty during his version of "Hurricane" (Bob Dylan version of course) but it didn't slow the thunder and it was fixed by the time the cops went up to the hospital room to talk to the man through his one dying eye.

It's always a treat when King Dinosaur comes to play. My kids turned on the video camera and ran the battery out right before the show but the papparatzi was definately in the house so it shouldn't be too long before the world is abuzz in twits and tweets.

Simian Special happened to be there so he and i did our best completely unrehearsed immitation of Simon and Garfunkle playing SUPERSIMIAN, Roadbed and 21 tandem Repeats numbers.

But get this... On April 22 2009 we have a Radio Play production called "The Thirsty Detectives" in 5¢ a Dance. My man Craig Bougie sent me a 17 page script and it's pretty funny and good and there is a cellist and a violin player ready to add the suspense music. i declare you might be a fool to miss this... OK i said it



interesting that my computer takes chiral images???
