Old Tolex

Sitting pretty here in Whore Know Ontario, writing things on the computernet. A visit to the local old things dealer brought me in touch with some sexy old tolex called Yamaha. She's dirty and needs some love, but I'm down with the sounds she makes. She's fit for the garage that I don't have. We'll make a good couple. I negotiated to get her for two thirds of her asking price because the input jack in channel two is busted, and the pots are filthy. Small deal. I like dirty dogs.



The Replication Factory

Recording here is going well. We drank many malted beverages on day one (day one stretched into day two for some). They boys knocked down the basic drum & guitar tracks for most of our tunes yesterday, so I've got to step up to the recording plate and hammer down the bass parts. I've done one so far, so six to go. Hanging out with seven party crazy dudes all weekend is the right kind of crazy. Everything is fun, but lack of women does make men do strange things. Balls are hanging out, sweet-cheeked teenaged girls are being asked over, and drunk guys hide beer from other drunk guys so that they can all get drunk together the next day. There was a debate over whether the girls at the Danish pastry shop are Dutch or Danish. Larry David was hailed as a hero of our time. An anthem was written. I received a free lesson in how to be a twit errr.... a twat? Sorry, I meant the benefits of twitting. People go mad for that shit.
