retraction?

well i just want to appoligize for my outright and unnecessary use of profanity.... my recent post about TPB containing a certain 4 letter word (however appropriate) was not intended for blogage.... it was a simple matter of a brain fart perhaps.... either way i made the corrections and the text now reads "just shut up while the show is on" so although it's not polite it's as intended and everyone get the point with out me swearing is how my mom raised me even if i might choose to listen to music and friends who use such language....

now that i am on a rant, i can tell a story or a back ground story at least.... i used to listen to GNR lies alot it was a short album and took me about the same time to shave the sides of my head before the "good side" which happened to be the "R side" was done....(i was a complicated process of electric razor and then lotion and hand razor.... i was a bleeder) "patients would start and finish with a problem... then "i used to love her"... ("i used to love her" became a theme sorta around the house although it was a hush hush type deal as it did have a "minor" swear word in there) then came "your crazy" as we all know is the originator of swearing songs... well ok it's not really but common it might as well be... anyways... that was a "no way" song in my house... and well although i can listen to it and play it and might have and maybe will write a song like it some day or a couple of times... i can see what she means.... my moms point is (if i can phrase this right) "the art can always be conveyed with out profanity" did i get it right now? mom?

that's an example... i did write her a song and i i used profanity and i think i used it in a good way.... it might have even been called for... maybe even might have changed her view of profanity in music.... maybe... probably not... but i haven't been scorned for the usage....

so looking back... and ranting.... i think my point my come down to this.... swearing in music shouldn't be over kill it has it's place.... perhaps this post is to my mom and people with the anti swearing in music... it's like boxing... keep it clean and come out fighting.... ? heh.... perhaps it has it's place.... i think everyone can relate to profanity.... music is international... so is swearing... you can relate to it... well most people can.... chances are it might not translate into profanity in russian... ever thing of that mom? heh....


i hope my mom knows i love her.... i tell her all the time... but it's become so much lately that it maybe takin for granted... and this is why i always held back mom.... anyways... when i was a kid i would tell my mom and her sisters to kiss me on the hair... and ever since then i've been stricken to a life of dodging sloppy aunt kisses... and now you know the rest of the story.... (i have lots of those storys)


hows that for a rant? i don't have pics...

the big thaw

i was out and about... it's really warm out... and really foggy.... but not your usuall fog.... it's one of those thaw fogs.... anywhere there is ice or snow it's got fog... it looks like steam.... kinda... it's pretty neet...

i remember when i was younger going to school in montague and i was staying at my cousin neils place in wood islands and was driving to school and it was a crisp winter day i think anyways... i came up over a hill ...the one where there is a tractor dealership on the corner? i don't know if it's still there or not but i came over the hill and all i could see were tree tops of where montague and surrounding area should be... everything else was emersed in a silver blanket of cloud.... it was awesome... then i decended into the cloud and well it looked like normal fog... but i know that above me about 20 feet was clear blue skys... it was an image that has stuck in my head for all these years and i wish i had a camera... anyways... i didn't so let it go.... it's kinda like that here in different areas...

the rain came yesterday and let up around supper today... the snow is still here but not as much... it's like subtract the snow and replace it with mud... so regardless of the rain the warm temps are making it an interesting spring....

there was a poker tourny last night and one tonight... i didn't atend either... i that that was interesting... and i'm still off the smokes...

i guess that's it for now... chowder?

how many people know this guy? back in the day it was the best of times after the worst of times? no.... but let me explain,,, whe i was 14 i had moved from my fathers which was a situation that went from new and exciting environment to oppressions and aggressive and subpressive parenting... to my moms which was a bit more lax due to attention paid to alot of different areas of the family... and my ulcers went away... not that i blame my father for being a bad father... he probably could have been a better dad yes but he tried as i see it and that matters.... anyways... living with my mom i was getting into my hormonal rage years and living even further out in the suburbs i needed some sorta excape... my cousin neil got his liscence and an older relative of ours was unable to drive anymore.... so he gave the ford escort to my cousin.... when summer hit he would come to town (from wood islands) everyday and pick me up and we'd cruise the strip up and down till we either met some girls or decided to call it a night.... that went on every summer night... there happened to be probs... and the car slowly went downhill.... but when school started up again it was at least weekends... and they were freedom to me... i could tell you some stories but the point it neil saved me that summer... and the summer after that to.... and the summer after that also...although that 3rd summer i had a licsence...but my deal with my folks was hook up with neil and park it...and go with neil...which seemed to work well for us.... some point in there we sorta got included with the CB gang which wasn't really a gang so much as people in ch'town with cb radio's and we did fox hunts... one car hids and once hid you give subtle hints on where you are hiding... in a preagreed boundry and checking frequency strenght you can kinda hone in on the location.... it's a neat game... i miss it... i had lots of fun.... and back then it was like neil needed direction...he didn't show any strong school skills... and he wasn't big on sports or music or what ever... when i went to bc the next thing i notice is he is learning how to fly planes and he's diggin graves and doing odd jobs int he country and workin on his dads bag plant.... and then he's a full fledged fire fighter and fireworks specialist and then latest seams to be search and rescue although he isn't in charge the neat thing it is his younger bro darren.... the team leader gets a paycheque and a lap top and trips to wherever the big meets are... it's pretty cool and i'm glad he's cool in that way ...i don't know if he could be any cooler...well i think he could... i guess the fact is that i don't think i could be as cool... this is his pic from cymbria... he didn't bring a blanket or pillow...just is jumpsuit flightsuit thing... it was cold and wet and he slept in my tent just like that while i had a sponge matress and sleeping bad and i was warm....that's me inthe corner.... neil is currently engaged to holly wood.... i just wanted to add that 6 degrees of anything seems like a fun game... weather yuo can connect your self to a famous celeb or anything or anyone maybe send me an email and i'll find a pic and we can play that game....i'm done...ciaoder Posted by Hello
benifer has hit the movie channels hard...6 degrees of beniffer? lets play that game... of.... hmm ben and liv in amegedon.... liv and steve tyler... i red the aerosmith book... ? no how about ben and jolo and liv in jersey girl.... well i saw gigli and jersey girl... as i suspected not that great unless your a sappy chick... and i'm not being bias... if you aren't sappy then you won't like it ... if you aren't a chick then you probably won't like it... if you are a gay guy and are sappy you probably won't like it... but if you like it then i bet your a sappy girl... i'm not sayin it's horrible... and to make clear about what i'm saying... you've heard bad things then these movies aren't as bad as you heard... but they definatly aren't great by any means.... how ever why i bring it up... i've never heard so much trucker talk from a persons mouth since eddy murphy back in the raw days.... so watch out... i try to keep my blog clean although i might talk about something and uses varible spellings i incourage all to do the same if you feel the need curse in a comment... at least you are being creative... it's not like i don't say fudge all the time? or slit? or fudgin slit? Posted by Hello
ok so it was apparently march 17 .... saitn patricks day or so they call it... and some one pointed out to me that it was exactly 1 month till the season premeire of the tpb 2005 .... this is a pic from last season with the boys and steve french... he was found in a storm drain all covered in sprain paint and bur docks.... just kiddin... but he is one real nice looking kitty... i've booked the blue room at dooly for april 17 for the show... and any one can come... i just request donations to cover the cost of the room... other wise it's not alot and i don't care... just shut up while the show is on Posted by Hello

fawk fashion

i was out with woody tonight... and he mentioned his shoes were giving him blisters... so i went on a rant about fashion vs. comfort... i even went as far as comparing him to a women...but it wasn't like that... just that women tend to choose fashion over comfort... and well so did woody i guess with the shoes... so i said i don't care if it means acid washed jeans and hightops ....if it's comfortable... then i wear it...

i was going to post more and that was going to be my quote of the day...but what ever... here is a song of the day - tired - by foo fighters

i can no long deny the truth about smoking...it is a dirty stanky gross habit that is addictive and bad for society in general....health wise and socially...it's is rediculously expensive...not only for the pockets but also on the health care systerm...and now the government is instating a bill thing that says the vendots have to keep smokes outta plain site...ie. cupboards or drawers...this is going to make the vendors hike thier prices even more...

In 1996 i had just started a job that i was determined to make work...i had no money and wasn't gonna have any till i got paid...2 weeks later... i couldn't afford to smoke...i didn't want to be a bum and bum for smokes....and i would never smoke butts... i have to maintain my dignity...so i figured it was a good time to just kick the habit... a month later other than going to work i came out of my room... i had jeans that were all patched up and alot of songs learned and not only did i kick the smoking habit i had a plan... day 1 cravings how severe and so on... day 2 same kinda deal day 3 not so bad...nicotine is almost gone...wait it out... day 4 no as bad as last 3 days...day 5 getting better...day 6 probably start coughing up black stuff....days 7 almost a week....week 2 bla bla bla.. week 3 through week 6 and after that it was all a matter of ignoring the smoke dreams....

that was the plan... i shared it with a friend and it seemed to work for him too... until he started smoking cigars...a pack of colts a day...holy.... hardcore.... anyways... a year later things changed and well i started again...

that whole time i was quit i was the worst kinda quitter.. i was what was called "preachy" and no one likes to be preached too... and i realized it.... but at the same time i only talked about it when people would say something that was totally ignorant... and i realized it... no that i am quit again...i am preachy for comical sake...but at the same time if you knew i was making an ass of myself i'd appreciate it if you would let me know...so i could stop... so its even funnier to me now because as far as i'm concerned you know i'm right...it's spitefully funny.... i know longer have to outside in the cold and the rain at public establishments... i no longer have to worry about my computer turning yellow and making funny "the fan is clogged" noises.... i no longer have to worry about spilling an ashtray or starting a fire when i dump an ashtray.... the risk of fire has greatly been reduced in general... dusting has dropped in priority around the house hold chores... my clothes smell pretty good allt he time now.. even when they are dirty...i never have to worry about pollution... as far as my butts on the ground...or a place to put it...like at the beach...or the park... i can afford to do stuff and but stuff now...

so if your a smoker i might not want to sit near you....especially if you are smoking... i difinatly will most likely leave the room if i can... i'd say it's nothing personal...but it kinda is... and if you have half a butt in your pocket...ya i probably will gag a bit... i know what it's like to be a smoker... you are addicted and put blinders on so you can give in to the cravings... i understand this... i am ok with this... i might say something... but i expect you to only consider it as seriously as you want to.. if you feel guilty is it really my fault....hahahahahahaha....

what i don't understand and what i could really rant about it the quitters that don't really quit...like my self the first time.......

Take it from me....that first time i quit...when i started again i only started for about a month? maybe....either way it turned into a squences of weeks of smoking and not smoking.... that plan might have worked the first time... but it's different every time.... and quitting as a couple really doesn't work...or at least none of those times it did... you really need to be ready....this last time i was.... now i just have to keep it this way...but i see my friends quitting all around me and they go a week and then they decide to have some friday night drinks like usuall... and then i hear that they had a puff or the had a whole smoke...or some even buy a whole pack.... common people... that don't work....you go the whole 3 days of suffering...why go through it again....it makes no sence... i still don't understand teh addiction i guess... because i mean i started again... more than 3 times more than 7.... not wise... but that's me... i'm not that wise all the time... but these people who i respect and admire following me down that same path...although i'm on a different path... i don't know.... it's not exactly like that... perhaps it's me seeing the situation from the out side... i expect that when i quit smoking i'm taking myself out of a certain social picture... the smokers circle... but it's not exactly like that.... it's the smokers taking them selves outta my social picture....

and another thing.... reasons for starting again do not include stress or drinking or sex or last request...well ok i could except your last request if you were before a firing squad.... smoking doesn't solve anything...if anything it will only make things worse... you know it's bad for you... so don't hate me for watchin out for you....

this would be a pic of me one a maybe 2 pics with me in the act... i don't know if i got my point accross or if i had a point...but it was all i could talk about and i had to make a post in my blog

in other news... the bosses apartment in amherst burnt down early this morning... well this is how it went... 8amish... beep ..Wally? would you give me a phone call? something horrible has happened.....(on the answer machine) beeep....wally i missed your call due to the phones being down from the fire... beeepp...wally it's myron...can you give me a call on my cell?...wally calls... how are you doing? i'm fine i said...did you hear from that ladie? yes.. ok... can you pack up that office computer...ok...


so as i finish cleaning the computer and getting it read...he calls up again... sounds like the fire didn't get into the actual apartment....but smoke damage and probably some water damage will cause some grief... either way they can live there...


i've been playin my bass and amp alot... i love it...



this is a pic of wally from 69 maybe?

the moon acts as a sheild from all kinds of space debry... it also has alot to do with how the earth works... as far as gravity and megnetics go i'll never comprehend it... but what if a big meteor or comet or what ever came our way... and had an effect on the motion of the moon... hmmm... i've heard that the recent alignment of a bunch of planets maybe have had something to do with the earthquake that cause the tsunami? which caused the shift of the earth on it's axis and effected time within the earths clock... also causing with the help elnino mudlsides in california and in vancouver and in south america and other earthquakes in europe and the atlantic side of the world... it's a cool pic... the moon is cool... moon spells cheese Posted by Hello

reflecting back

so now that i've had some time to think... i had a chance to go to a casino when i was in hali... apparently it was right accross the street from the hotel... i was think...wow i could go in there with 900 dollars put it down on a table and double it... put the original 900 in my pocket and go gambling crasy with the winnings...... i'd have a great story to tell everyone when i got back and some nice blog material...

but i only joked about it... i've never seen the inside of a casino...other that movies and tv...

last night i spent about 1.5 hours writing my blog entry... it kinda flowed...but i forgot bits n peices so i had to scroll up and edit some stuff... i was gonna take a nap but after the blogging... i was in the mood to play guitar... so i got going on that... and then steve showed up... and we got talking...and then we started playing some songs... then finally i showed him some riffs i've been working on..and how i thought i might make it into a song... and he came up with some ideas... it was neet... then billy showed up... more talking then steve started to play something new... and we all kinda threw in some ideas.. it didn't really become anything but that's how it starts...

then we went down stairs and played a card game called niners... steve showed us... then woody came upstairs...apparently they was playin trivial pursuit...90's edition... so it was a FCU reunion.... right on... but we didn't play...didn't even talk music... then everyone down there went to the bar... alissa was home from hali... she gave me a look and i knew it... she had been smoking... shame on her... so i shook my finger at her... they left and no sooner than they left woody came back...apparently the band was awful at the cellar... who ever the band was... so we watched the dave chappelle show dvd... just 3 or 4 eps and ordered chinesse food... then it was late... billy left and then woody left and then steve left... and i went to bed...

over all the weekend was a great success good times good friends... i wished i coulda got to see my cousin though... robert...man... soon ok.. anyways... today is still the weekend...it's a super nice day(could be warmer) so something interesting might happen... steve is still here so ya never know... we might go to dooleys

i'll let you know how that goes

road trippin with my 2 favorite allies

lyrics from a RHCP song...

song of the week: you got no right (velvet revolver)

so i did it... i went to the bar... i had sauce and i didn't smoke... i wasn't even tempted... and they let people smoke in the bar too..i wasn't to happy about that... but let me start from the beginning

ok so what was it thursday? no it was wednesday ...wednesday night... i was into sobers as usuall...i went in the booth with malcom and he plugged into the amp in question and played some licks and i just wanted to talk about the whole deal...i've been studing the ampeg catolog...i am just starting to get familiar with the names and what i'm looking for more...i know i don't want solid state for instance...i want tubes....so we talked about amps and people around town and their amps... i asked about warrenty and got different input about cabinets and stuff.... as i'm leaving the subject of the amp still being there when i came back from halifax was brought up.... i think it was tim who said an amp like that probably wouldn't sell like that...i was like ya i suppose...i mean when you spend that much money you should do your home work... don't buy something like that on impulse... then he said and even then we can always order you another one.. and i said ya but at that price...? he was like ya your right... anyways...the next day i woke up with a headache...i had actually gone to bed the night before with a small headache... so i slept in a bit to see if i could sleep it off... then i went out and pickup up miss maggies car for her to get it serviced...and my mom picked me up at the station... took me to the PO then i helped her get some pictured she was having framed...she paid an insane about for frame work....i couldn't beleive it... so then i said hey...let kill a few more mins... we can stop at sobers and i can show you what i'm quite certain on getting...... since i've basically made up my mind about the svt classic head...it's the cab i'm not sure about... do i want a 610 or which 410 do i want... so we go in... we make our way back to the booth and it's not in there... it was there last night... i says they must put it back out with the show room amps where i first saw it... nope... not there either... hmmm...i doubt they put it away for me...

the amp was behind the counter... i found that out after i asked where it was... hmmm... it had been sold... "tims deal" "i'll go get him"... so it turns out someone had come in thursday morning and started a financing of the purchase... that means this guy has to pay a rediculous amount of interest on this thing... he'd be better off with a credit card.... anyways... they said if he gets declined then i can still have the option of buying it...


so here's what i knew at this point.... the amp sells retail normally for 2800... they have it on for about 1000... i mean there was more in that figure but less than 100 so i will just say 1000...you get the pic.... the cab was retail at 1275ish... but going for 750ish? something like that... that's getting close to two grand after taxes...maybe even over...

so miss maggie got her car all fixed up for 17 dollars and my day was about done... i get home and i called the hotel and made a reservation... it was just going to be me orginally so i just got a room with 1 queen size bed... then i called music stop... i found out that there was no way he could ever sell an amp like the svt for less than 1700ish.... well holy...

alright...hmmm.... the cab he ca do for 775... ok that's about right...so why am i planning on going over...? well maybe ampeg isn't what i want... maybe they have a GK or somthing that will blow my mind or what ever...

so then woody calls me or i calls him... lets go for a drive...ok... i went a paid my rent... then i went to sobers...again... i talked to dave... ya man i'll make some calls and send some emails...
right one.. ok man... i'll see you when i get back...

so i says to woody...hey man you should come......nah...i only have 20 bucks he says... i says well you won't have to worry about a hotel i got that covered...you won't have to worry about the bridge or gas... i've already excepted that i'm paying... you just need to worry about food... and even then i can lend you some money... he starts to think about it... i says think about it and call me later...

my sister shows up later that evening... we worked on a bunch of songs.... then it was getting late...so i packed and went to bed... i didn't sleep very well... up at 9am..bed at 2ish? didn't sleep till close to 4 i think...

10 am i'm at my moms to pick up my sister...she's not ready... i'm supposed to be in amherst to meet my father so he can show me his apartment...at noon... i got off the bridge at 11:50am...at the same time my father calls me and says i was to late and he was leaving...i was like ya... sorry...next time... so at about 12:30 i pulled into my grandfathers yard in amherst and my father was there... it was neet to see him and my grandfather int he same room... and then also to see his reaction to seeing my sister...and woody...having worked with the company before...i dont' think they were on good terms last time they spoke... so that was interesting to see both of them smiling and being civil...not that they aren't civil but it could have been awkward... i wouldn't expect woody to give my father the time of day on the street...so you see what i mean... ya so my father left and i talk to my grand father and was entertained by my sister and woody and my grandfather and my step grandmother all interacting... we stayed till about 1:15ish... had to get to halifax fbefore the stores closed...and for all i knew that could have been 5...plus i wanted to get in swimming pool and relax a bit and get some food...

i drove there ...i had made up some good cd's thursday night so everyone was happy with the tunage...i was happy that was a success....we got into town...and checked in...then hit music stop... i get in there and automatically woody knows the drum guy... so i'm standing there and another guy goes can i help you... i says ya... i'm amp shopping... are yo kyle? y ahe says... cool i'm PEI chris... ok lets go make some noise... hmmm this booth is lackin... they had some guitar amps..and some bass amps... nothing speicall.. mostly practise specials i think... the svt head i wanted was not there... they did have a svt 3 pro.. which is apparently a modern version of what i wanted ... it has more power...i'm not sure about the amp setup... something about preamp tubes? sure ...ok... so i played it trough a couple cabs....then i tried a single 15 combo...abuot 100 watts i thinks... woody thinks it's great... weird...so ok...i'm done...now i have to ponder the applications of this svt 3 pro....maybe that's what i should get...it's rack mountible...? i need to get outta there and think...

then to cd plus and sam the record man...some nice vinyl.... then we got soem pizza...or food is a better term...i get a text message from brad the bass player for "the danny mainstreet band" am i in town?... ya i wrote him back...i told him i wasn't alone and there was a change of plans...he mentioned me and a friend are on the list at the door...as the were playin the attic that night...super cool....... then to scotia square and we got cider...well i did and kara did too...

back to the hotel... go get ice.... start drinking...it's about 6:30ish? i played some of the songs me and my sister had been working on and she sang her parts...woody thought it was great....so did i ...she's getting better all the time...4 drinks down and i want to swim... so me and kara went to the pool....it was all good... didn't stay to long though...back to drinking and had to shower... so it's getting late... we wanted to get a meal before we went in...and i needed to sober up a bit...i wasn't that late and i was buzzin pretty good... so we went to a place...the shoestore... nice resturant...good food and the prices were reasonable... my sister however forgot her ID...pfffttt...so she went to the hotel all by herself...she wasn't go long...then to the attic

we go to the door that we used many times before... access denied... gotta go in the door at the corner...ok... ahhh...hey...i supposed to be on the list... who are you? no your not on the list... ok... what ever...i'll pay to get in...it's only 5 bucks... so we make our way through the bar and find the stairs to the "attic"... get up there and they are on... ok... i see that there is another entrance... so i go over... ummm... can i see if i'm on the guest list... she says...it wouldn't matter if you already paid... i said i know.. i just want to know... yep.. you are...dang... ok...well i feel better cause i'm supporting the band... so i seen john bowman on sound...wow... they brought in the big guns for this show...heh....i also see daylene mcbeth...cool...then my sister comes up and says hey remember thia ( idon't know if that is how you spell her name) and i'm like ya...scotts sister... wow your all big...i mean grown up... although she was not that grown... she must be 5'5? and skinny....anyways... i'm here for the band...after the show i went and said hi to brad and said good show to the rest of the band... making a long story short...

get back to the hotel... chill for a few ...but on the tube... get ready for sleep... i don't know if woody would tell a different version or not of this story but basically sleep then awake to brightness at around 8 i think... back to sleep wake up again... hmmm... gas? aaaannnn... ok here we go... trot to the can... am i gonna hurl? i dont' have a headache...that's why i usually puke if i've been drinking... hmmmmm...no i puked ...this was gas i think...either way puked a bunch...then back to bed...poor sleep...i was cold and hot...the blankets kept sliding off the bed...arrgggg.... my sister is in the other bed with a pillow over her head...i think to block out the brightness...darknesses everybody......11 am wake up call...

everyone got their routine done...and we left... woody and kara went for bfest... i was starting to have a turn for the worst so i stayed in the rig while they ate... half way through the wait i burped and a little better... i tried to sleep till they got back but i didn't...so i just faked it when they couldn't get in the jeep... anyways... it was agood drive back...good music...

i was going to go see my cousin robert.... and i feel bad that i didn't... but i was in no condition to see family ...especially since i haven't seen them in so long... or never before... and i was wanting to play some pool with him too... good luck if i could hold a cue straight...let alone stand straight to aim it... i will have to make a special trip just for him...maybe when the boats start running.... we made good time on the way back...not speeding... which is a change... perhaps not my favorite allies... but 2 of them... that is for sure...

now i'm home and steve is home for his march break.... he is coming over and so is billy...woody might too... i don't know... i made this plan after i dropped him off...actually he drove back...so that explains why we didn't speed... and it was the first time he ever drove with me in a vehicle... and the first time he ever drove himself to where he is currently living... i think woody is pretty happy about getting off island for a change... he misses halifax or big city mentality i guess... kara was happy to be out and about and not worring about school...and not worring about her other drama's...women...heh... so here it is... long story short... trip was a success i guess...and life just gets better...expescially after i get some food into me... that's a lot of typing... i'm done...i think i'm getting carpet tunnel syndrome
