Lots of thing to cover but too much stuff to do. Apple has done it again. Brandon and Underground Planet has made another killer video. Dierks Bentley is one of the coolest cats in the business and Matt Powell kicks ass..... pics of this past weekend's shows soon.

So, I'm without a phone probably until Monday. I got a free upgrade on Cingular.com. A free LG camera phone at that! Party! It will be my new backup phone as I'm sure I'll save to get a Nokia 6820 when they come down in price a bit. Rock! Free phone!

So now my phone is broke ass. All it says is please insert sim card now. I cleaned it and put it back in but to no avail. Hitting the Cingular stores at luch to see what kind of back-up phone I can get. So, if anyone has/is trying to call me, thats why I'm not answering..... broke ass phone. Matt Powell tonight regardless. That'll cheer me up.

I'd give my left nut to have his lifestyle. What a badass.

Blogs are stupid. Don't ever get one.

The party bus showed up right on schedule last night and I think Mario Andretti was driving. I think we got it up on two wheels at one point..... wow. What a show.

It may not get you drunk very fast but I guarantee you there's a college kid that's going to super charge this.

No mas, no mas tequila.

Don't ever go see a show at Bricktown Events Center. No digital camera's allowed cuz I guess they say you can sell the pictures online, but film cameras are ok. Now, explain this to me, can't you just order digital prints now when you develop film? Found out it was a non smoking show after we started our $25 minimum tab with $4 beers. So we decided to find the designateted spot to all (well most of us) have a cigarette. "Hey, you can't take your beer out there!" Well, WTF??? First I can't take pics of a guy I have close to a hundred pics of already and now I can't smoke and drink at the same time??? Oh and the security guy said they are about to outlaw cell phones too..... wow. It was a very Gestapo Robert Earl Keen show. So we went and saw Bleu at the Dog to finish the night. That band is bad ass. The Swabble was one helluva party though! Thanks to everybody who showed up. That was a great time. Sunday there was a lot layin' around on the couch. Today after work though, I think we're gonna hit the grand opening of the Dirty Dog Tavern. If you're in Stillwater come out for some Happy Hour Action Fun Time Club today at 5.

I don't know what that shot was, but it was green, on fire, and from France. Tasted like peppermint schnapps moonshine..... I'm doing pretty good for only having 2 and a half hours of sleep. Great show last night. Lots of old friends. Pics are up. Ready for Round 2 tonight.

Because nothing says "I'm serious about my music career" like a tour bus. Come on man, get real. Just cuz you bought a bus doesn't mean you're a star... but whatever it takes for you to justify blowing that big of a wad of cash. And just cuz you've sang at the Wild Horse Saloon and the Blue Bird Cafe (probably once), doesn't mean you've made it. Boy that tour schedule sure is full! Man, to have a tour bus and travel all over the country! I see he's accepting demos too. I guess not much of a writer either.



Sorry, I was just told about that site and it made me giggle.

So, Matt and I ate lunch at the Student Union today. Felt like the new kids on campus. Lots has changed across the street. We ate at Chick-fil-A Express cuz we didn't find the Taco Mayo until after we bought our food.... shit. Brought back memories of not going to class and going to Willies at noon then going to the Dog to shut 'er down. Man, those were the days. Everyone better get a good night sleep tonight cuz the festivities for the weekend begin tomorrow! Mike and Cody tomorrow night at the Dog. Then its Keen on Friday at the Bricktown Event Center. May catch Bleu if time or my liver permits. Then of course its the Swabble on Saturday for all August Birthdays (which is my birthday, wink wink nudge nudge). Yeah, gotta keep your party hat on for three days straight.... par-dee.

Friends, this is how you build a flash site. Be prepared... its freaky deaky. Its going to be one of the freakiest movies since Seven. Oh yeah, here's the trailer.

Guess who's coming to Stillwater on the 27th? Yeah, been waitng almost four years to see that guy.

If you want a break from Country Music for a bit, I suggest this. Check out Cadillac Rock Box off of the We've Come For You All album. That record makes me wanna kick some ass!

Not much this past weekend. Watched Hellboy and Kill Bill 2. Both badass movies. Started building the surfboard bar for Saturday night. Got the board cleaned and clear coated. Just gotta wait on saw horses for the legs. Man, got lots of work to get done so I don't have to worry about it this weekend. Stillwater Football stuff, Watonga Football Designs, Yale Volleyball, OSU Color Guard.... word. Mike & Cody on Thursday, Keen and Bleu on Friday, the Swabble on Saturday.... word again. Even though they aren't together anymore, I still want to see Cadillac Voodoo Choir. I'd take some vacation time to travel and see those guys. Oh well, have a good Mondizzay.

Rock n fuckin' roll.... Steve Earle's new cd is gonna blow some minds. My favorite new song is "F the CC". Protest music at its finest!

Boo! Spooooooky Boo! Its Friday the 13th. Gonna lay low this weekend I do believe. After all of last week we need a break. Also, to prepare for next week. Mike and Cody at the Dog on Thursday. Robert Earle Keen Friday, then the Cabo Wabo Swabble on Saturday. Keep on rockin' and truckin'.

Whew.... Its done finally.



Ols School Jam require Old School Posters. If you miss this show, you're stupid.... well not "stupid", but whatever. Yeah. Isn't it a beautiful day?

Finally caught up onmy picture posts... got 5 new albums for you to see. The Stragglers show at Joe's and DB MusicFest from this weekend are pretty hardcore..... no, no, no... not porn... just party.

So, here we go with another party celebrating birthdays, now in the month of August. The "Cabo Wabo Swabble" will be at our house on the 21st starting at 7pm. If you know our parties, this will probably last til the sun comes up. So, it doesn't matter if you go to the bar to see a band and stillwant to come.... chances are Kevin, Ryin, Jamie, and/or I will still be up givin' 'er hell. This will be a tequila themed party so bring some along if you wish. We'll mix Waborita's all night. Word.... come one, come all.

Wow its starting to get crazy at work. Students are moving into town and our store is getting ready for rush week. I just gotta say the show last night rocked and Thornley kicks complete ass! Word. Also, on another note, I'm selling my old Sony Ericsson T226 with ALL its accessories on eBay. If your looking for a good phone on Cingular GSM, this is the one to get. I upgraded just because I wanted a phone with a keyboard. Word. Check it out yo!

Damn it! My weekend isn't over yet! If your going to this show and see Kevin and I, please buy us a beer.

From what I remember, I believe it was a good time this weekend. Oh and to the asshole who tried to steal my cooler, suck it, don't be prick, but I do appreciate you not starting anything. There would've been some serious repercussions. Word to your Monday.

I'M RICK JAMES BITCH!



I'm sorry Charlie Murphy.... I died today.

Enjoy yourself up in heaven.

Yes Yes Yes... everybody whisper a big ole Happy Birthday to Matt.



I think he's flirting with you.

If you are not here this weekend... you are not partying.

Holy shit! I heard this ad on the radio this morning! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

Do a search for houses and 80% of the results are trailers in Oklahoma... which is the one of the most active tornadic states in the Union. Why do people have these? In Oklahoma? They'll buy 40-some-odd acres of land and what do they do?.... throw a fucking trailer on it. Maybe if they don't like where they put it, they can just up and move to another corner of their lot.

So we looked at the only house we liked in our price range in Guthrie yesterday. The outside would kick ass with a little work and loved the full acre lot. So, we had our fingers crossed as we walked in through the door. The crossed fingers soon turned into the middle finger as we said "screw this", it needed to much work. The house has been empty for over two months and I guess the previous tenant (as we found it was a rent house) had pets so the carpet was all stinky and torn in some places. There was dry wall work that needed to be done and some major updating on various hardware.... oh and its about ready for a new roof. So, you can take your overpriced '85 house and shove it. Come talk to me when you're ready to knock about 40K off the price. Seller's market in Guthrie my ass.

Graham Colton Band.... OK, why haven't I heard of this Oklahoma City boy before? These guys rock... not too hard not too soft.... just right. Drive is one helluva CD. I found them on iTunes looking up some Cowboy Mouth and they were on the "Listeners Also Bought" list. iTunes rules.

I shit you negatory Ghost Rider, these things rock!

Didn't do shit this weekend except eating some interestin. Gonna make up for this week though. Melisa's cousin, Linda, is flying in from California today to stay with us for a week. She wants to see what this music scene is all about (did I mention she plays fiddle?). Well, I do believe this is a good week for it. Gonna check out Steve and Brandon at Joe's Wednesday. Man, I haven't been to Joe's on a Wednesday acoustic night in years.... Hittin' the Dog on Thursday to get Superfreakydeaky on Ladies night. Then the "big show" all weekend long (for us anyway) the Boeckman Musicfest in Okeene. Heard there will be a pre-party Friday night with some music jammin'.
