Good Mroning and welcome to the Stormcellar News Network, the only channel dedicated to stuff what happens to the boys (and Jo) whilst on tour.
This Mornings Headlines:
Mark from Spirit Wear in Fort Wayne is a Legend
Getting that custom shirt for Mac done at 0 notice, picking up a tshirt and driving it to the gig? Bravo Sir, Bravo. Yes I'm plugging his business, go see him for Stuff in Fort Wayne, like printing.
Bill Lupkin Schools Me Again
I had to play harp last night in front of another master player. Bugger. Bill very kindly joined us for some songs. I got schooled. I know that phrase is rather poor English, speaking of 'schooling', but it remains true. Tone, skills, taste, a true Master of the instrument. Thank you Mr Lupkin. I am totally going to rip some of those phrases off.
Tommy Lee Drives 12 Hours to do our sound tonight
What can I add to that? Thanks Tommy Lee.
Zico is one funny Guy
X is quick but Zico is quicker. Thanks for coming out to see us. See you in KC.
Hey Mo, Mr Balt seems like a genuinely nice bloke
I know you read the blog and Mark came out to see us. I ought to run a personals column.
You can get good eats at 3 am in Fort Wayne
Thanks to the gang at Henrys.
I miss my Harpmaster 3000
I left my custom harp case back in Oz 'cos it was too bulky. I miss it. I have a miniature replacement case and it's just not working. Harps scattered across the floor, can't find the key, ARRRGH!!!
I love these guys
Travelling with this irregular outfit of miscreants remains a pleasure and their onstage performance are truly a thing of beauty. It's a peculiar world with random events that take us away from the course we chart. Whether we're headed in the correct direction, or following the GPS down some obscure back alley, I am in good hands.
575 Road Deaths And Climbing in Illinois
When we arrived it was 522. They post it on the sigboards as you drive down the freeway. Take it easy out there folks.
Right, coffee finished, free wifi burning, time to google a breakfast nook, round up the cellar fellers (and lass) and go out into the sunshine. Where's the famous stormcellar weather? Hmmm.
Stay tuned for more headlines when we have'em.
