Elvis is still the king

If you're looking for trouble
You came to the right place
If you're looking for trouble
Just look right in my face
I was born standing up
And talking back
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me

I've never looked for trouble
But I've never ran
I don't take no orders
From no kind of man
I'm only made out
Of flesh, blood and bone
But if you're gonna start a rumble
Don't you try it on alone
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me
I'm evil, evil, evil, as can be
I'm evil, evil, evil, as can be
So don't mess around don't mess around don't mess around with me
I'm evil, I'm evil, evil, evil
So don't mess around, don't mess around with me
I'm evil, I tell you I'm evil
So don't mess around with me
Yeah!

i love that song

Waynes World - Excellent

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

i just got to O'leary ... i was sitting there and the idea came to take some pics... this is one of them.... i think it's kinda artzy... this place was really nice and well lit... white walled and lots of color.... and in this photo it looks dark and yellow.... i was anxious to see wayne and play some guitar and i think he kinda wanted to get outta his parnets place a little... but he was happy to be there and i was happy to see him in his parents environment... kinda a whole new side to wayne i had never seen...

this pic is of wayne and his parents... it was really neet meeting them... they are really nice... his father was apparently a real hard ass back in the day... but in his later years i guess appreciates when a son comes home to visit after 14 years... his mom was super cool too... a nice old british couple... in that pic it's an interesting photo... artzy in a way.... the back drop looks like a light house to me... it could be any building up west... wayne stands there with his arms crossed and his parents sit there not paying attention... if you hadn't known those were his parents you might think those people were other tourists... waynes a tourist now... hehe... my point is... it's rock n roll wayne standing up against the elder establishment sorta... or if you know they are his folks... it's like he's still rebelling... although it's not like that at all.... my guess is patty took the pic and wayne wanted to folks in the back ground and the old style shingles...

this pic is from New London Seafood Restaurant... i hadn't had lobster in a couple of years and apparently patty hadn't had any ever so this was a good time... i stayed away from the scallops... i think they might make me break out bad in hives... this pic isn't really artzy.... just a cool pic with memories... thanks patty for sending them... send me more please... i don't have one with you.... or the baba's gig....

Summer comes to it's final resting place

Last night the temp dropped to below 10 degrees... That's a pretty good sign that summer is over on PEI... How ever the forcast doesn't look that bad for the next week... So it's perhaps just a sign... although swimmin at the beach isn't going to happen...

yesterday ...well check this out
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

this was the current conditions and although i have chopped up some weather pages before this is the real deal... we had a warning somewhere but it didn't state tornado's just water spouts over the water....There is a first for everthing I guess... and this might have been the reason waynes flight was delayed 2 hours... so let me talk about wayne

wayne and his wonderful wife patty were here for a week.... not at my place but for an over night.... i went up to O'Leary to spend tuesday night with them and get an early night so that we could get and early start the next day... It's almost a 2 hour drive... over 100 KM's .... this is the sunset that I was driving into
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

except my sunset had some clouds right near the horizon that kicked this sunset into high gear.... It seemed to last for ever too... i was so excited by this sunset... I'll never for get it... i need to get a good camera and take it with me everywhere... Sunsets can usually be awesome and i remember telling someone maybe my brother that I wish i had the camera to take these pictures and he said about each picture becoming just another sunset ... Actually i totally forget what he said... but it kinda made sence... but after seeing this sunset posted on the apod site i realized I could get my pic posted on something like that... which would totally be worth it... anyways... it was an awesome sunset and as i pulled into O'Leary it was almost gone... it was almost violent... like watching a fire burn like crazy and then it's done... loud would have described this thing....



.... so i slept in my van and it wasn't that bad... i was kinda bored so i played along with the radio for a while... and got a couple of ideas for open mic night at Baba's...

I HAVE A FEVER AND THE ONLY PRESCRIPTION IS MORE COWBELL that was and ad on a moncton radio station ... from a skit from SNL it was christopher walken who said that as he was playing bruce dickinson producing BOC... funny stuff...

the next day wayne and patty and i headed for ch'town... we got to maggies resturant at about 10ish... we could have gone to the other end of the island before noon... but we took a couple of trips to some places enroute to my place to switch rigs so patty could see better... patty got to see where wayne grew up and went to school and even went into the old liquor store that he got kicked outta for having a video camera.... we drove into his old highschool and on the roof of the cafertia is written in BIG letters.... PENIS ........ punks....

so patty also went shopping at value village and we had a nice BBQ and practiced some songs.... we went over a lot of the Vitamin Voodoo songs that went better then last year when we had keith on drums... anyways... good times right.... so wayne comes up with an idea to cover and eric larsen song... it took me a couple of times to get it then play something neet to compliment the song and i was so sure if we should do it... so i pulled out the 4 cd compilation from the bands that hung out together over a certain time period... lookin for a copy of a song that we wrote that we weren't sure about on a change... so on comes a remo grainger song and wayne says i know that one... so i was like so do i... so we paid tribute to remo and eric and reunited on another coast.... strange way to tour... but it's fun... so we called a nite after some drinks and music and headed home to chill and hit the hay... i had to have them back to oleary for around noon... and i would have been screaming numbers except i couldn't think of any... and i was fine by the time we got to summerside...

took it easy thursday although i had work to catch up on...

friday they were going for lobster in New london... so i had lobster again after so long... i think it's been 5 years...

yesterday was interesting... with the weather conditions and then getting hang out with wayne and patty for anther 2 hours.... we went to barry's sports bar... nice place... and while we there jon and his girlfriend crystal came into have some supper... so wayne got to meet billy's cousin... i dropped them off at the airport and came home and had CIDER... my cousin wendy picked some up for me last weekend...

today i read my friend calvins blogi was so far behind ... since july i hadn't read it... i had checked it but handn't had time to sit and read all of it... i've barely had time to update this thing... so here i am and that is the scoop... i suppose i could go on bout my sis moved to hali for school or my friday night poker win but i've said enough...

LIFE ISN"T THAT GOOD

After my last post I was talkin to my mom and she told me that my uncle has sinus cancer... hopefull they can just remove it and not have to worry about it again... but what a downer... we'll be thinking about this till it's done... he goes in for surgery soon i think so we will know more soon.... i prefer not to talk about this to much on the net since it's family bussiness and not mine... and this blog is about me... but it does affect me... so that's why i talk about it... i'll let you know what happens... but i'm not give any names or to many details...

chow for now

LIFE IS GOOD

i've tried to be a good person most of my life and it seems that it's paying off... i don't know much about the cozmos but when it comes to karma it seems i'm getting my much deserved and others who deserve theirs are getting theirs too...

the weather for sept is so far amazing... it started with muggy rain and then a scorcher sun... then bleeded into a warm and excentric night.... today i got up to another scorcher and i've got alot done today... the house is clean and the grass is cut and i even put some pics on my fridge... if the weather was like this everyday i wouldn't complain... and well i don't complain to much... even when it does get cold i will write about it but i won't be complaining...

my friend luke is home for a couple days and we all did open mic the other night.. it was fun...

this week my friend wayne and his wife come to PEI... so next wednesday i expect we will perform some Vitamin Voodoo songs... i'm excited...

i could go on but i have stuff to do... so i'll update more later
