Another Lovely Summer Day

It's really hot out. I mean damn hot. I was working on the roof of the American Axle plant in Hamtramck like I always do and I thought that I had died and went to Hell.

Jack and I went to her cousin Denny and his wife Jen's house Saturday for their son Matthew's birthday party. It was cool to see everyone and they had some great food. Denny has built a home theater in his basement and it rocks extremely hard. He also has two of the most comfortable couches in that basement that my ass has ever had the pleasure of sitting on.

After Denny and Jen's we went to my cousin Tom's house for a graduation party for his son and my other cousin Tim's two daughters. They had good food as well. We didn't stay very long since I had to be back at American Axle at 6:00 A.M. Sunday morning.

Jack and I went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse last night for Father's day with Norm and Sass. Norm, Terrie, Brendan, and Aaron were also there. I had country fried steak and it was good.

I am really hoping I get the time off of work I requested. I am supposed to go up to Joe Lafata's cabin up by Ludington on the weekend of July 9th. If I do go Joe, Tommy, and I are going to do some recording. As much of a pain in the ass it is dragging a bunch of recording equiptment up north with me it is a really good feeling to know it's all there, ready to capture any magic (or lack of) that may occur. It should be a good time.

Jennifer Wilbanks: "The Runaway Bride". 

The Runaway Bride

All of you have seen pictures of the "Runaway Bride" by now i'm sure. What the hell is wrong with her eyes? Is she about to be hit by a bus or something? I mean DAMN!

Work Floyd

I have been working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week for what seems like a long time although it has probably only been a week or so. I will be on this 7-12's schedule for awhile working down at the American Axle plant in Hamtramck on their rooftop air conditioners. Due to this constant working I probably will not be updating this blog much for a little while. I will try to update when I get a chance but lately I pretty much get up, work, shower, eat, and go to bed.

Pink Floyd and Roger Waters re-united? It's true. Click the link below for the details.

Download Update and More

I have updated my music download page with the last piece from "The Paradise Tapes - Volume 1" and a "mixed bag" of other songs.

We had a good "House Music" session last night. The lineup was Tommy, Nancy, and Danielle on vox, Joe on keyboards, Paulie G on drums, and Tim Kas and myself on guitar. I played bass for the last jam of the evening.

I have a Spooky Garcia session tonight. Should be a classic.
