• Hi all

  
  

  It doesn't seem like I've been around here much does it. Hmm. I've been lurking. and leaving the occasional comment here and there, but on the whole, I just haven't been around.

  
  

  Oh well.

  
  

  So. Things. Things have been reasonably good. The trip to St John's was great. My hotel room had a king-size bed and 3 telephones! We played our songs and they seemed to be well-received, though it was harder to tell since this time the audience lights were completely off, so it was like performing into a vast pool of oil or something. But oh well. We also did a bunch of shooting for Byron's ongoing schlock horror movie Blood Hat = Dead Head (it's about a sombrero that goes around killing people and/or turning them into zombies). Fun. We got footage of me strangling Lorne Elliott, and also of the hat killing Jim Payne and Glenn Downey of Sods and Rhymes. Unfortunately, they broadcast our segment only a week after the fact, so we missed it and didn't get to tell anyone to listen. Sigh. But oh well...

  
  

  On another front, I've set myself a little personal goal: I want to go to Europe with my wife next February. I know that might sound dumb or frivolous, but oh well. We're not well off, but since we don't smoke or drink or buy anything much (music is my main vice), we should be able to scrape together the dough once we're both working again. I'm thinking of starting in England and showing her the places I've been, then moving on to Holland, Germany and Denmark, then South to the Greek isles. I dunno. It's all extremely undecided of course, since right at present we're really poor. But hey. Goals are good

  
  

  I'd write more, but it's nearly 5am, and any reasonable person would be in bed many many hours ago. Oh well. More tomorrow, perhaps.

  
  

  Take care
