Saturday

Woke up at 6am with leg cramps. went back to sleep, slept late, watched death note on my laptop in bed with Penni it was nice. posted a question on the drummertalk.org boards. took a shower. got groceries. ate and Mexicana 1900. uploaded gig pictures and napped on the couch.


Friday

Installed the express version of MS SQL enterprise that my coworker discovered. Played the keg and cue with David Stein and the Ravens. Penni Phillip ryan and davey allstar and charlie was there. My old band "Worth" played there about 6 years ago it was strange to go back. There were no homeless people there this time. The PA was tiny but the gig went well. unloaded and ate with penni and scott at Skyland. Penni was terrorizing Scott. It was quite funny.



Thursday

Played Charlotte's underground with my old buddy Neil's band Broadcasting Silence and 7 days. The first band noodled on guitars at full volume for an hour before they finally opened up the show. Neil's band was really good. Their singer has really improved! our monitors were absolutely chaotic but chuck said the PA mix was good. We did well. crashed late.

Slept to noon, went to Panera bread for lunch, then to Target and the grocery store with Penni. Went to Arpa with Penni's parent for her dad's birthday. Tapas = confusion, "how big is that? what to we order? do we share?". later we went to their house and i fixed their Linux windows printer sharing and install the Zip file creator ARK on their Linux laptop. it is nice to be useful. returned and watched naruto and a redbox movie.

Friday

Helped my coworker with her first Database, Your first database always looks like hell. It is a learning experience. Played the milestone with Rita's gift as a power 2 piece. It went well moving the bass cabs were a pain. Pics in route. Chuck and Penni were there. Went to Skyland afterwards.

busy as hell plus 9 shows are booked


Sunday

Drove to Statesville with Penni and Traci to visit the Parents before their trip on Father's day. we are a Captain's Gallies. My mom said they "re-did" the restaurant and it was really nice. That was a Lie. it was the old tacky fish place plus a couple of new murals about the history of Statesville. We hung out for a while, dropped Traci off and came home. I finally read part 4 of my inner bimbo. Sam Keith is a genius. Went to practice played though the set and did fliers at kinkos for the rest of the night. Scott was freaking out about ant in the space. It was quite funny. "...%^&*$!!!, They are gonna get inside of my amp and chew up the wire and stuff"
