Was it the one about the little kid who got sent to Hell because his life was super poo poo and he died before learning about Jesus? That one was basically advocating preordained calvinism.

I was thinking new age-thrash-folk-polka-mariachi-ragtime, but that's only because I can never understand what death metal bands are singing about, and lyrics are important to me.

This is the mask I used to wear when I played in a band called the Ratkox, circa 1999.



My first wife sewed it for me using the sleeves from an old 1970's J.C. Penney's leather trench coat. I occasionally wore the sleeveless coat while shirtless as a sort of cape when we played, but it got covered in beer and Jaegermeister at the storage locker we used as a practice space, so I threw it away years ago.

My first wife was a silly, goofy artist, and she was great, but I was a drunken idiot, always cynical and exhausted from having to work so loving much for so little money, and it eventually killed her love for me. She's barely spoken a word to me in 15 years, which I respect. I earned that, unfortunately.

Nonetheless, this mask is a work of art, and I love it!!

I don't know if there is one. Even 25 years ago, it was extremely hard to keep a band together becsuse there were very few places to rehearse (the storage facility I mentioned above was in Fremont, CA and cost $300 a month, which was as much as my share of the rent in our lovely apartment with 4 roommates), and few places to play unless you were an established band. We played some shows at vet's halls and places like that, which would rent out their stages for the night. It sucked. That's a big reason that band broke up. Everything is so expensive here that there are few opportunities for creative expression. It's stifling, and I need to be free!!!

That's why I moved to Portland, which was cool for awhile. Until it wasn't (for me).

Update on my non-metal son’s Behemoth show. He really liked the costumes and was impressed by how metal drummers use double bass drums. Also for the last few days since he’s been playing his guitar more even if it’s just to cover Coldplay songs*


* I have threatened to disown him for liking Coldplay but we both know I won’t do it

I never had a double bass pedal, and I did have two bass drums for awhile, but one pedal sucked, so I could never practice at it very well without something breaking.

I had to move the fuckin' thing myself when we played shows, and Tetris the pieces in and out of my 1986 Nissan Pulsar, so it was really pared down.


(for reference use only. THIS MEANS YOU!!!!)

I was poor, so as the hardware broke on my drumset I had to build pieces, and rig stuff in certain positions. I couldn't afford to replace drum heads, so I would just duct tape them back together if they broke. And I played a lot of cracked cymbals. All of my cymbal stands were broken in some way, which loving sucked. I used to play shows with broken cymbals all the time, and people made fun of me, but I didn't give a gently caress. After all, it was punk rock, right?!

It may have sounded like poo poo, but it was mine, and I loving loved it. Also, I could get that fuckin' thing on and off stage in 5 minutes, easy. I hated when bands took forever to break down and set up their poo poo.

The bass drum had a huge sticker of Dan Rather's face on it that one of my friend's dug out of the dumpster of some school, which was loving awesome. I gave that drumset to my wife when we divorced, and I had no place to play it, and she took the sticker off, which made me extremely sad. Oh well.

I think I posted a picture of it somewhere in this thread.

It's all great.

Crazy on You is one of my favorite songs of any genre. I've lost my voice several times from trying to sing along with it in the car!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZuW6BH_Vak

I've seen them a few times. Once with Def Leppard as the opener, where there was a freak rainstorm during a cover of the Who's "Love Reign o'er Me" encore, which was amazing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDcMhrlRpF4

The second time I saw them, they played with Cheap Trick and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Sadly, traffic loving sucks in silicon valley, and we got stuck in line at the exit for two fuckin' hours, so we missed seeing Cheap Trick, although I did get to hear them play "Surrender" while we walked from the parking lot, so that was nice.

Joan Jett was fuckin' awesome, of course.

I'm in New York and my internal clock is all out of whack, so I went out for a walk at 6:00am and went to the Duane Reade/Walgreens right as it opened to get a coke and see if today's issue of the New York Daily News had a cover funny enough to buy. It did not, but here it is in case you're curious:




Anyway, none of that matters at all. When I was buying my coke and $1 frosted cookies, I had to stand in line behind at least four alcoholics stocking up on cases of beer for the day. They'd probably been waiting for the store to open for hours. I've been in that same situation, and it's not a good one. But we all gotta do whatever it takes to drag our asses through the day, so I'm not gonna be judgmental. I just remember how it feels to be alone and to drink all day until passing out, and I'm really happy that I quit drinking, because that poo poo sucked!!!

On the way from JFK airport through Queens to Brooklyn yesterday, I saw a truck* full of dudes hurling ice cubes at a subaru that cut them off, and they were hanging out the windows screaming "LEARN HOWTA DRIVE YOUSE PIECE OF poo poo!!!!" or whatever. And the Subaru driver was screaming poo poo back at them. It was fuckin' hilarious. I love New York!!!

In California you might get shot if you throw poo poo at someone's car, so it was nice to see it remain playful.

I've long wished that NYC could be removed, and airlifted, and plopped down on top of San Francisco (sparing Alameda island, of course), so that I could have this city with Bay Area weather. That is my dream....
