so great to have Jaymz Bee on the radio saturday mornings. I think it is a perfect fit. I love radio that plays lots of different, eclectic music. His show is still a jazz show and I hope he keeps stretching and featuring local artists!!

jazz fm 91.1 Saturday mornings 9-noon!!

Yah baby...!!!

After confessing to my partner Julie that it may have been five years since I emptied the lint on the dryer...I had to pull the old trick where you put the dryer lint under your shirt and pull it out and pretend it is belly button lint as I pull it out, scream and make funny faces. (i think it is only about five years since I tried that joke)

I was teaching a lesson tonight and let her try the rat pedal. It was her first time using distortion. She is hooked! I dont blame her. After she left, I couldn't stop playing. It is what it's all about. that great sound, sustain. It is the reason I never stopped playing guitar. If I have to explain it to you...you never played electric guitar.

It is so much more fun than the internet. I am sad as I had to stop and work, on this damn computer. Music is what keeps me going. Not this damn computer. Damn. Back to work.

I was just over at the revival jam. I just don't like it there. the jam that is. Not my scene. Some great music. Heard a really good rapper. rich brown always sounds good. I know I am not too old...it is just not my scene.

I do notice though weird things about being almost 40. I like chocolates now! Remember when your parents always got them as gifts and were so excited? I never even tried them....now, tonight I ate a whole mini box of them. that is age if you ask me.

RandB standards, forget it but chocolates!!!!.......

I am going to try and mention everything in this posting. Parenting is covered as I took my biggest kid up north and we tried ice fishing with his uncle andy and my uncle murray. fun. Now i can cross that off my list of things to do in life (still haven't slept with high school french teacher or tried acid or...)

the highschool french teacher thing is a a quote from Last Night. I wanted to see Don McKellars new film Childstar? but our babysitter was too tired for us to hang out all night on friday. We did make it to the new hot club though the SupermarketGreat vibe, good music. (hope to play that back room soon as it rocks!) and the udo noodle soup was the best soup I have ever had!!!

Back to the weekend. No hockey on tv at the cottage!! sucks. Would have been Ottawa vs Toronto. Why did they tell me that. You would think I brought a guitar and practised instead? nope. Had to crosscountry ski in so no luck.

also good news that our European part of the Hornband tour with Howard Johnson is looking up!! Watch here for details (and to hear a couple pre-release mp3s!!!

back to work. lots to do. sorry I havent been bloggin for a few days.
