Like a roarin’ postcard from the fifties – that’s the sound of the HELLABAMA HONKY TONKS. Three voices, an overdriven sixstring, a big bad black doghouse bass and a pumping and swinging set of drums – that’ s what is called High Octane Hillbilly Rock’n Roll at its best, a patchwork of rough Rockabilly, fast Country and a little bit of Swing performed by Goldi Grasshopper, Crazyeye and Mr. Madsn. So put your cat clothes on, you rockin’ cats and enjoy the HELLABAMA HONKY TONKS!

Die HELLABAMA HONKY TONKS – High Octane Hillbilly Rock’n Roll at its best! Der Boss eines berühmten Rockabilly Labels sagte über den Sound von Goldi Grasshopper, Crazyeye und Mr. Madsn: Irgendwie erinnert das, was die Jungs mit der Gitarre, dem Kontrabass und den Drums da zaubern, an einen schweren V8 Motor - mal schnell, mal dreckig, mal laut – aber immer mit viel Gefühl für Rhythmus und Melodie. Rock’n Roll von den HELLABAMA HONKY TONKS, das ist ein Mix aus rauem Rockabilly, schnellem Country und einem Schuss Swing, der das Adrenalin dahin treibt, wo es hingehört. So wie es bei gutem Rock’n Roll sein soll. Der Sound der HELLABAMA HONKY TONKS – High Octane Hillbilly Rock’n Roll!

Thanks Leo
Today would have been Leo Fender's 106th birthday. So, I had to do something to pay tribute to the man! Here is me holding Felix The Strat and wearing a Fender logo t-shirt in my music room. I posted a picture of all my Leo Fender-related instrument headstocks (Fender Stratocaster, Music Man Stingray, and G&L L-2000) on Facebook, Twitter, and SixString. I posted this picture here and a filtered version on Instagram. Clarence Leonidas Fender (8/10/1909 - 3/21/1991), thank you and rest in peace.
I worked a half day today because I was giving platelets at Noon. It was a very pleasant 2-arm platelet giving experience; Joe was great. Evidently they are approved to use lower arms for the return to give some mobility back to donors. Thanks, but no thanks! I'm not interested in moving an arm with a needle in it! I'm fine with the elbow area on both arms. Joe had no problem finding the vein in the right arm. I gave him the story and he decided to "go for the sure thing". I'm glad he did.
Peggy wants me to drive her moving truck to Florida and is shooting for the first week of September. Is it 2001 again?

Jimbo and the Soupbones are a local band from near Pittsburgh, PA that plays folk-funk and everything in between. A super nice guy and a big persona, Jimbo Jackson leads the group and also does some acoustic work. His web page has some sample tunes and if you get a chance to see him play I would recommend going. He played a set for us this saturday that included Prince covers, original work and Bill Withers. his original song Incredible...is just that.
Tony MacAlpine
I am hammered in this picture.
I went to Rumba Cafe to see Tony MacAlpine. His opening acts were Hephystus and Lonero. Bill Lonero is on SixString and I got to meet him after the show. He is an AMAZING player and his one guitarist Nasser Abdalla is a total ham on stage like me! I embarrassed myself talking to the guys in Hephystus, Bill Lonero, and people I knew there.
I was so drunk I couldn't drive home so Julie and Shay came and got me and my car. It was bad. I might be done drinking for a while...
Earlier today I took the Jetta to Hatfield to get rear brakes and have the ignition switch replaced. It took quite a while but the key easily turns off the car now!
I also drive Julie's cousin Amy home from work again today.
