mixed meduim show last week

It was the Jam band with a DJ on drums that got the crowd @ the Railway club moving... I'll just leave it at that as that is an accurate statement.  Minor problems with hearing things in the monitors, but that's what happens when Johnny Wildkat is not on the case.  Worry about the things you can control and accept the things you cannot... is that called the serenity prayer or something like that.  For a rage hero i am actually a fairly serene fellow.  If i were to throw a minor criticism at our performance it would be that at the start of the show we perhaps failed to fall back to the basics to find the group, mind you there were some king hell technical difficulties, but that was the purpose of the SRSS...  Like Inspector Jack Clouseau being attacked by Kato... always without the possibility of calling off the attack... stay sharp.  In the end we turned it around and had some good times for sure.

DJ Chris Hixon from the Baboon Torture Division and the core of SR JONES, Jan Toren, Christopher Johnston, and Jason Jones keeping it real.  DID i mention SR Jones is playing SHINDIG @ the railway in a few hours... there are 3 kids screaming things behind me and i have to be up @ 5:40 am tomorrow but for good or ill we will stomp some balls tonight... the additions of Tim Watson on drums and Sandra Bouza on vocals is sure to help our cause.

On Frozen Pond... with fixed Winnipeg lyric.




I also love the Will McGuirk line that has become part of the song.  He happens to be a music critic that tared and feathered the music in press, which was a good thing because critisism like that helped "One little dream" become a stronger record...  One of his suggestions was that a certain line be sung in French, and that that should be clearly obvious...  We had actually discussed this, but since the said line was sung by a wonderful woman it was pointed out that any Frenchman worth his salt would rather hear a woman's voice any day of the week... anhyway i like the new line much better.

One Little dream



Shindig tonight in a few hours, a decade after the Motorcycle Man 2001 Shindig run.

For the SRSS on Wednesday September 22 I'm a bringing down a bubble hockey table and we are going to have some matches... you see myself and Rilcof are part owners of a hockey table that we scored years ago on a Mailman pre garage sale bounty haul... and we always wanted a tournament, so lets have the damn tournament.

Music as well, 2 bands, Jeff younger presents later...  OK horses water is over here.
