Man... a couple days off the board and the pages keep adding up and up!! Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do.

It's back to school time, so been kinda busy. How's the road treating ya Joe? Gearing up for a big show myself this coming weekend in LA. We're playing at The Whisky A Go-Go Sat. 9/14, and to be honest with ya, I'm a little nervous about it. We have some A&R reps coming out to scout the set, so we've been hitting it pretty hard in rehearsals.

I only have a few tickets left to spare, but if anyone from the LA area would like to catch our show at The Whisky A Go-Go this coming Saturday (9/14), drop me a line at rdg@san.rr.com.

Catch you guys later.

Hey, i know that you will come to Hong Kong and having a concert on 12&13 October, is it truth??

And can you tell me more about that............

HEY EVERYONE!!! Last night the boys and I decided that Jimi Hendrix was a JW. We were in Hungry Jack's and a song came on the jukebox, and we were singing "it's all in the Watchtower...read it all in the Watchtower..." etc heh heh! (Was this before or after the "we all live in a can of Mr Sheen/tin of sardines/coke vending machine"?)

Camden show was awesome! I tried to put a review up for it after I got home from the show but the website said that the show hasn't happened yet?!

Thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts. Musical inspiration is indeed flowing from this situation. I have been asked to carry the coffin at the funeral with the other three Grandsons, my brother and two cousins, whcih I consider to be a real honour. Thanks again for all your kind words.

Local Dude - Is that made of all those little insane phrases you have sitting around your music room? I remeber "why does my elephant taste so orangey". What a strange person you are.... :) lol

Anybody fancy checking out my mate Danny's IUMA?

Neil

guitarzbabe: lol, the Typhoon didn't knock the power out where we were at (lots of tree damage and the like though), but I had my batteries ready and was listening to EOC on the computer....It was a rush when "CRATS" came on and the wind was howling!! I put it on repeat, and it really fit :-)

LOL Michelle, congrats to your sis, and I pitty the poor man who got in front of you!! LMAO ;-)....BTW, Have fun at the show!!

masterdrummer1: Buddy Rich was da man!! Is he still alive?? (I don't remember reading anything about his passing)....I heard he was a tough guy to play with too....If someone was off key or couldn't keep the rythm up, he would kick em' out right there!! lol!....Gregg Bissonette is also a big Buddy Rich fan...So was my late Grandfather who was a professional jazz drummer....I always remember him playing on the practice pad and my jaw would just drop :-0....Always banging out a rythm at the chair or table, lol!! BTW, you might want to check out some Greg Howe, LTE (Liquid Tension Experiment....Petrucci on guitar), Richie Kotzen (great vocals as well), and some RacerX (Paul Gilbert guitar, but also lots of vocals)....Anyone else have any suggestions?? Oh, BTW, if you don't know already.......t2j'ers: mjking@iuma.com, petermulas@iuma.com, www.rickygarcia.com (or iuma.com), neilmorgan@iuma.com, paulclark@iuma.com, rhaier@iuma.com....Sorry if I forgot anyone else!!

Hope your feeling better jblaze1! Summer colds are rough....

Invigor/Get a loaf: I also agree!! The intro to FRIENDS is all it takes!! It mesmerizes you from the start and doesn't let go!!!! :-)

Peace all, /\/\ike
