During a team-building mission with Kreemé recently, we stumbled on this weird giant statue, half buried in the sand! Evidence of alien visitation? Or incredible monument to a lost civilization with unimaginable skills?Back in our Laboratory Of Science©, samples from the statue revealed that the colossus - perhaps a primitive god? - is constructed entirely of chicken fat.
Everything You Know Is Wrong.
Schmaltz!!! How fitting.
ReplyDeleteDo the natives have a 43-Man Squamish Team?
ReplyDeleteThe only natives on Fabulous False Memory Foam Island© are the Four Or Five Guys©, of whom you is one, draftervoi. So a 4- or 5-Man Squamish Team is definately do-able.
DeleteRed hot chicken fat?

"Video not available". Are Wet Willie any good?
DeleteDuring their early years they were very good. White boys doing hard core rnb. They were Capricorn stablemates of the Allmans, etc. Saw them countless times, including the concert that was made into a live album (Drippin' Wet) which is what you unfortunately could no hear on the not available link. Let me know if you would like that album.
DeleteTell ya what. Write a piece abut them.
DeleteDa Willie? Hmmm...... Give me a few days. Need to think up an angle for the story other than just some sort of wikipedia piece. I could use it as a seque way into a piece more about the venue where the live album was recorded - the Warehouse and an experience I just had with another musician (who, sadly just died) and who remembered vivid details about the encounter some 40 plus years later. Thoughts?
DeleteVootie!
DeleteAnd the band played Shmaltzing Matilda . . .
ReplyDeleteChicken fat? Could be the Elder gods...
ReplyDeleteOh very good!
DeleteI actually teach a ridiculous class called Secret History about TAZ and rhizomes and how you know what you know, what it means you don't know what you don't know, and how you find shit out (pay attention, ask questions, listen)...one of our mottos is "everything you know is wrong."
ReplyDeleteCoincidence? I think not....serendipity...could be. The Warehouse? Epic.
Its amazing when you consider the quality of the acts that played there and how small and dumpy it was.
Deleteit's true.One of my favorite memories is winter 1977, home for winter break and despite having become a punk over in Austin tagging along with the Copas Brothers, a bluegrassy band from BRLA who went down to open for Jerry Jeff Walker. In my memory, Jack Jack was so drunk that night (every night) he fell off the stage and seriously sprained his wrist and finished the show holding it with his other hand.
DeleteMy interaction that I mentioned above is related to Jerry Jeff Walker!
Deletesometimes it's a very small world...
