The word on the street in the street and the City.

for security reasons, i can mention not what i am doing now but only confirm that late night hammer time blog postings will have to move into the area where by they can be categorized as early night hammer time blog postings...  I did go down to the Supper Show Last week, as per usual, but i had a late night Hockey game, in which i sucked turtle cocks i might add.  I was on a line with a light weight finesse player, and a heavyweight non finesse player, and i think we thought we were going to light it up, and the defense were changing the way you play defense to try to alter our game to get us scoring but all the scoring happened at the wrong end of the rink... everybody blaming everybody else... a classic collapse. There are lessons in Hockey and Music if one wants to take them...  Anyhoo it was a Cam and Jesse show with guest Chris Kelly... Cam and Jesse played some songs and sort of played some others with breaks and random reflections... Chris Kelly played the  song Kristofferson, which I enjoyed immensely.

I talked to Super Steve before i left for Hockey and he gave me the lowdown on the last SRSS's that i missed.  I guess you have noticed that every fucking thing that i am writing is in italics and is now underlined... This happened when i checked to make sure i spelled the word "Kristofferson" correctly and essentially i have lost fucking control of the text issues in this blog...  i was dealing for a while but the bastard kept doing those squirrely things a computer does until i got to the point and said fuck it because this was seriously hindering my concentration in laying down the facts as i saw them, or in this case how super Steve saw them ...  Its super fucking annoying for sure, but lets just forget about it.

Super Steve thought all 3 nights were excellent except for the fact that he missed one of them, but he was sure it was excellent as well...  He really thought "a spectre is haunting Europe" with Johnny on sound was king hell.  He was also very impressed with King Dinosaur, very much so indeed that he approached KD after the show and asked him if he had been rehearsing... apparently the answer was "I don't rehearse, I perform"... Classic King Dinosaur.

What about classical revolution... Super Steve missed it but he was sure it was good. 

damn straight: (will an embedded video play if for some fucking reason italics is on... lets see



hey it works, and on the blog it doesn't actually look as annoying.. the italics... black on white, as i see it typed on the back side of this web apparatus, is rather disturbing. Not the worst thing that happened to me today... did i mention the route?


No lets not... this is a SRSS blog... where was I...  Last week cam and Jesse, I sucked at hockey, i suck at computers, i have liver spots and rectal dysfunction.

A little levity people... one day you won't have the SRSS and accompanying blog to think what you think about, and as Mike Hawes might say... "yea man, and somewhere in Squamish a Mountain Lion yawns"... 


Speaking of that I would like to see a Mountain Lion... I saw a Canada Lynx, actually 2 x in my life... nothing like wild cats... for the record Mike's Quote was Africa instead of squamish and there was no Mountain... and his quote was almost exactly 10 years ago today, for what it's worth.  It was more said like a scientific fact from the mouth of a literal badman...  the word "badman" i use in the 90's dance hall reggae sense...  "him Kick a 2 chairs real mean like a badman"... probably not following me.


OK  So for tomorrow Wednesday September 14th... 

SR JONES shindig rehearsal...


Jason Jones - piano
Chris Hixon- electronic drums
Christopher Johnson- Guitar
Jann Toren- bass
Allen Robertson- acoustic guitar, vocals
Sandra Bouza- Vocals


That's right.. next Tuesday CITR Shindig comes into our barn and SR JONES is representing at fucking 11:30PM... we will come correct, i expect to fail but i will not be defeated... my Vancouver music scene motto...


I'm looking forward to this show... what could possibly go wrong?


BtW... after the show my man Jeff Younger has this free show, if you perhaps don't want to stay at the railway for free...



WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 14 - THE UNSUPERVISED @ GOLDIE'S PIZZA 605 W. Pender @ Seymour (downstairs room) 2 sets, 9-11pm, no cover.
That's right, no cover, really killer slice, tasty beer, and 2 sets of voracious, pepperoni devouring music by the hungriest crew of modern jazz mayhemsters this side of the other side, where people play polite music and audiences nod off in appreciation.  Goldie's downstairs room is a cool space and we'll be playing some new tunes while gearing up for the implementation and destruction of some new musical gears.  I would suggest you might want to catch the free Super Robertson Supper Show at the Railway 7:30-8:30, then saunter the block up to Goldie's for 9 to make a night of it...  Thincrust!  theunsupervised.ca
