Now that was a whole bunch of fun... having breakfast (Boo-Berry's and Key Lime Pie) with HELL'S BELLS. Our winners, treated right; lots of swag flanging round the table at CINKERDAGGER's. "Post-card" snow falling outside, and JAMIE NOVA remarking on how decked-out the place was: "It's like Christmas EXPLODED in here!" Everyone had good good food, great fare, and excellent stories to share. Bill-The-Plummer, and his wife, were further treated to stubbs to the show (and for their 20 kids as well), Some of whom would wind up on-stage singing along. ...Not to mention the other 100+ kids "anyone under the age of High-School" asked to come up during 'You shook me all night long'.

Technical problems arose: A Broken base drum pedal, Jamie’s' ripped pants, Adrian’s' school-girl shirt that wouldn't stay on...

4 A's all the all the way around to last nights ALTER BRIDGE - ANOTHER ANIMAL show at the BIG EASY (Spokane). Myles did not let us down including several hometown references "there's a lot of Spokane in our new CD, I love Manito this time of year..." and a tribute to Musicworld's / Guitar Shop's Mark Morris, the driving inspiration behind the sole-searching "Blackbird" song moved us to an emotionally charged yet totally rocking performance from the first pounding opening chords "Ties that bind" to the last reprises of a sold-out crowd singing along to RISE TODAY. There wasn't a place to stand, yet all the seats were empty.... It was very moving. Tremonti, Marshall and "Flip" were super-charged with energy, and played a solid barrage for two-hours of true-to-the-CD ALTER BRIDGE HITS and select favorites, some added on-stage to the set list just for us! Extremely TIGHT, never stopping for a break, and playing to the crowd, it will be a show we shall always remember. Another Animal's "Whitt" stepped in for "Whole Lotta Rosie" giving Myles a chance to don the knickers and kick some serious former-Spokane Axe-manship. Another Animal had ALREADY proven their game was 'A'

GREAT SHOW the other night, "the girls" are on top of their game! Extremely tight, true to the "Sabbath" sound and exciting to be a part of. You know the tunes, but you've never SEEN Sabbath until you've seen MISTRESS OF REALITY. Trust me. A solid two hours of thrust and grind didn’t leave a dry eye in the house (partly because Izzy kept throwing water and stuff on us) or a moment to catch our breath. The stage came alive and the place didn't stop shaking until the very last moments when they said "thank you for coming" and only then did we have a chance to realize what these girls had done, Brought justice served up on steaming fresh platter of Vintage Sabbath Bitchin’ Sabbath performed with vengeance and passion. And a side order of Attitude! I don’t know where they get that energy from but it’s hard to choose who to watch with such a fearsome four of un-ending musical delights. And, I can take them home to Mommie...

Even if I had one up on the competition, I would loose one every now and then just to make them think I didn't have a secret that allowed me supremecy on a weekly basis! I can only thank NASCAR for this obvious slight on the other guys as:

Went up to "NASCAR CREW CHEIF MIKE'S" graduation party last weekend in a gorgeous new house ontop a big hill near dragoon creek. The overlook was Spokane, clear to the valley, from maybe 30 miles away. We met "mrs. Mike" and the rents, A famous racecar driver from the North East, a stunt man from seven movies back in the Burt Reynolds days, Rollover Rich, (whose wife made mollasses chilli, yummmm) and it should be noted here that Mike fires that grill like a portable flamethrower... We watched the truck races in Dover on a flatscreen the size of the starship Enterprise's veiw screen, and then took his brothers Monte Carlo (#28) for a spin around the undeveloped property! Matt was alittle upset when he saw us driving his racecar on a dirt filled lot, but, man, What a celebration! And congrat-u-ations to crew-cheif Mike for he is now "specialist" Mike, and although we'll miss him round the old Team HALL garage and at those killer pit-road transport parties, we are very proud of him and proud to have him serve for US....

Big shout-out's to all the folks who came down and donated a Coat-4-Kids at the Fairgrounds this weekend. Hope you had an equally fun time at the Fair, and make sure you save those Elephant Ears because we have got lots of BIG listening to do! My headphones aren't big enough for that incredible ANOTHER ANIMAL CD coming out on the 25th. Sully may need to take good long ride on his Harley, and let these puppies breathe! I heard he may be upset it came out so good. he he, naAAh- he's just busy doing the Book Thing, the Hollywood thing, the Movie thing, and the up-coming little starlette thing. So I dont think he's got time for missing the guys TOO MUCH (for a few weeks anyway). Besides... "B-F-G"

As reported the other day on Kraazy Aunt Karla's Rock Quickie, studies indicate rock stars die much sooner than the average person. But, Part B of that study is that British rock stars actually live longer than their American counterparts. Therefore, one must ask if perhaps the "Keith Richards Diet Plan" should be considered for our young up-and-comers. After all, this 60-something Brit rock icon IS the picture of health, is he not? ...

Big fun Monday at Daisy Dukes Doubleshots, thanks everyone for coming by, do we not have the cleanest wheels in the Pacific Northwest?? With "scrubbin' bubbles" like THAT it's no wonder why. Here's the "shout out" to Jay, and the ladies: Ashley, Emily, Anita, Jennelle, Terri, Meagan, Keirsten, Danielle & Heather! Make sure you see the photos elsewhere on this website, and look for the Latte' stand with NO DOORS on Appleway, now y'all come by y'hear???

Now ... on to the blog. Speaking of blowing doors- It's lap #94 California Superspeedway, #8 Dale Jr. has the lead, Ryan Newman (#12) is running a close second. Kurt Busch has gone to the pits under green but nobody I'm watching has followed. "Who do I root for in THIS pack?" I think to myself...
