HEY THERE!
Down in miami, doing miami stuff!
beach, pool, massage, repeat.
in between i work out and walk and eat stuff with quinoa in it.
i have to tell you about the melvins new record, tarantula heart.
if you hate metal, then stop reading this.
but you'd think after 40 years in the business Buzzo et al would not be inventing new stuff.
but the first song on this record ("pain equals funny" ) might be the greatest metal medley ever. i know i'm using the term "medley" incorrectly - but what to do you call a 20 minutes song with separate parts, each one classic?
you can get the album on iTunes. but i include the youtube link below.
again, if you're not into metal, you will find this abrasive and perhaps insane. so don't listen to it just to complain about how noisy and irritating it is. if you love metal and hard rock, this will be hit you in the face.
but for me its equal parts Stooges, Kiss and Hendrix, with Buzzo in front.
Congratulation to @SGKusmertz, @bek1, and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Joe and the Panelists.
@SGKusmertz If you could have one song play when you enter a room, what would it be?
@bek1 Do you usually feel excited or stressed out about going back to school after summer break?
@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
Congratulations to @Ted_Prohowich. Your question was chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Ted_Prohowich What's your back to school advice?
Good Morning Gutter Friends, got away for an overnight to the far south suburbs on Saturday and had dinner with my cousin and her boyfriend. The weather was beautiful for a long drive, then we stopped at their Menards on the way back and had a nice breakfast. On Friday we released monarchs #5, 6, and 7. 4 to go. Took a video but it's very blurry. They are all chrysalises now, so we get a break for awhile and just wait for them to be born. Today it's another beautiful day, going to work in the yard and then maybe take a ride to Half Price Books in the far northern suburbs if they are open to get some CDs. Then back to work for me tomorrow. Health insurance is going up $80 per month starting Oct. 1, so going to try to squeeze a couple of extra hours of work each week to pay for it instead of cutting back on something. Our company is small and I may have to look for another job after the new year. I'm FT at 30 hrs. but the plan was to get to 40, still not enough to keep me busy...
