My Easter involved a ham, so that was good.

Working at the new job is soooo much better, and I get paid out the ass to book rooms so moar gear is in my future.

Yarr, i also consumed a section of swine for zombie day.

I have also been trying to regulate my consumption of the various seasonal jelly beens and chocorabbits so i don't dibeetus myself.

Lastly, amazingly, the heating oil hasn't run out yet, though i was expecting it to do so at least a week ago. It hasn't been freezing cold really, so "heating oil" seems somewhat of a misnomer in the current case, but we do require it for warm water showers and such. I was pretty sure we would run out, but it looks like i will be able to order more tomorrow, and it is still going. Totally defies logic.

Cannot fucking complain. So of course, as a habitual pessimist crank, i am trying very hard not to.

I like doing this every now and then.

Are you tweaking other people's volume?

It would seem as if i was. I hope they heard.

Yes we had an unusually lucky year here in the North east. We really lucked out with the price of oil being ridiculous. If we would have had a winter like last year, I would have been down at the train station giving handies for $10 a pop to pay for that shit.

Joey...I see November Rain is playing Saturday night?

One town over from where I live too?

ugh I had to call in sick today, colds and alcohol do not mix well at all. I've only left my bed once and had to come straight back

Boom. Lost 19lbs in 6 weeks. Not long to my target now. Its kinda weird not having a massive gut. Its totally added length to the old chap too.

Good job. That's like 3lbs a week? What have you been doing?

No shit? at Dingbatz? If you are inclined to go, let me know, I will put you on a guest list if we get one. We usually do, but I've not played this place before. I thought you were in Brooklyn for some reason.

A lot of cycling and cutting crap out of my diet. Basically you had better like soup!

I live in Brooklyn but only cause I dorm here. I'm from NJ, and Clifton is just the town over and I'm going to be home this weekend. It's not even a 20 minute drive from my place.


It's my buddies bday this weekend but I could probably hop over. What time are you guys going on?

Nice I'm struggling to lose the last bits of belly and man-tit. Need to cut down on carbs and up the riding I think. I'm also going to start the couch to 5k running programme thing to mix it up a bit.

Load in is 9:30, I would think about 11:00. We're doing a 90 minute set.. If we get a guest list I will put you +1 on it. We have no one else we know going.

The show in cleveland I didn't go to, HoB, was a big hit. nice crowd, I'm sure they will be telling me all about it tomorrow on the ride.

Sounds good. Only problem is I wont be getting obliterated since I gotta drive Whats the setlist gonna look like?

It's So Easy, Rocket Queen, Welcome/Jungle, Sweet Child, Brownstone, Nighttrain, Knocking in Heaven's Door, Patience, Used to Love her, Don't Cry, Civil War, You Could be Mine, Live and Let Die, Paradise City, November Rain, My Michelle, Yesterdays. Some come in and some go out depending on the crowd sometimes You're Crazy, Godfather Theme,

Groovy. I'll try to make it out tonight.

Man, people with screws loose are hard to deal with. My sister is living with us again, and has been for a couple months, and she is truly a surreal person to interact with. Some of the shit that comes out of her mouth, the way she phrases things, the way I can only assume she views the world. Fucking crazy.

Joey, your band was great. That soundman sucked pretty hard though. I wanted to punch him in the face.


And of course, thanks for the beers.
