Of course we had a great time at the Shins show

Silver Lining

"And I was your silver lining...
As the story goes.
I was your silver lining...
But now I'm gold.

Hooray! Hooray!
I'm your silver lining.
Hooray! Hooray!
But now I'm gold..."

Let There Be Rock

Drive-By Truckers:
Southern Rock Opera, act 2.



Dropped acid, Blue Oyster Cult concert, fourteen years old,
And I thought them lasers were a spider chasing me.
On my way home, got pulled over in Rogersville Alabama, with a half-ounce of weed and a case of Sterling Big Mouth.
My buddy Gene was driving, he just barely turned sixteen.
And I'd like to say, "I'm sorry", but we lived to tell about it
And we lived to do a whole lot more crazy, stupid, shit.

And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd but I sure saw Molly Hatchet
With 38 Special and the Johnny Van Zant Band.

One night when I was seventeen, I drank a fifth of vodka, on an empty stomach, then drove over to a friend's house. And I backed my car between his parent's Cadillac's without a scratch.
Then crawled to the back door and slithered threw the key hole, and sneaked up the stares
And puked in the toilet.
I passed out and nearly drowned but his sister, DD, pulled me out.

And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd but I sure saw Molly Hatchet
And the band that I was in played "The Boy's are Back in Town".

Skynyrd was set to play Huntsville, Alabama, in the spring of 77, I had a ticket but it got cancelled.
So, the show, it was rescheduled for the "Street Survivors Tour".
And the rest, as they say, is history.

So I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd but I sure saw Ozzy Osbourne with Randy Rhoads in 82
Right before that plane crash.
And I never saw Lynyrd Skynyrd but I sure saw AC/DC
With Bon Scott singing, "Let There Be Rock Tour".

With Bon Scott singing, LET THERE BE ROCK!

~this was on the playlist today... so. damn. good.

How Sweet

is Craig for buying me this today?
Just another reason I love him so.

Saturday Night at home...

Craig gave me a lift to Smith's on his Lambretta
today to pick up some things. He rebuilt it all by
himself and it kicks ass! That thing goes fast and
I have to admit, it is a major turn on! I'm really
proud of Craig, I had all the faith in the world that
he could do it and of course he did... yay baby!



This is an older photo, but I will definitely add
some current ones as soon as I snap 'em. Maybe
even a short video...

I've Been Waiting...

for a few weeks for Dolly P. to be my friend... in Space.

In the meantime, here's a classic :

"Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
Jolene, I'm begging of you
please don't take my man.
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
Jolene, Please don't take
him just because you can.
Your beauty is beyond compare,
With flaming locks of auburn hair,
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green.
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene.

He talks about you in his sleep
Theres nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene.

And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you dont know what he means to me, Jolene.

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I'm begging of you please don't take my man.
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
Please don't take him just because you can.

You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene.

I had to have this talk with you,
My happiness depends on you.
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene...

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene,
I'm begging of you please don't take my man.
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please dont take him even though you can.
Jolene, Jolene..."

You, too, can be my Space cadet friend... go
HERE!
