it's been a LONG time since this has been updated...damn...sorry for the slack - we've been busy thinking of excuses to not update this...  

we've got a big show this weekend.  back at the double door this saturday night.  there's 4 bands playing, we play 3rd.  hooked up again with our friends, and a great band, the lovehammers.  definitely do not want to miss this one.  we're thinking the show is gonna be full, and tickets might be tight...  you can get tickets from anyone in the band, or email us tix@redshirtmusic.com   you'll save the $4 convenience charge if you get them from us and not through ticketmaster.  let us know, we'd love to see you there.

 

what else...

 

pat and i went to the helmet show last night.  chris traynor hooked us up with some passes and we watched them play, hung out on their bus, listened to some music, drank some beers...all in all - a great night.

 

again - hope to see you out this weekend...take care

can't sleep...been up thinking about everything that's going on in my life.  sometimes things are better left off unsaid.  take that for what it's worth.  i hope you all are doing fine.  i can't tell you how much i appreciate all your support coming out to the shows.  it means a lot to me/us.  have a nice week (what's left of it) and take care - jon

Hey,  We've been laying low for a about a month.   How about you?   We won the State Fair which was cool.  Got a plaque and everything....

 

 

 

We have some shows coming up and we hope you can make it.  I'm having my  last party on my deck and you are all invited.   We're gonna play a drunken set.   I hope your summer is going well.   We look forward to seeing you at some of the shows......especially the Milwaukee one.   It's our agent's (Deb) bday.   Make sure to say happy bday if you see her.

 

out...pat

friday morning...just into the morning anyway.  the cubbies just swept the astros earlier this evening...life is good.  so good in fact...that i get to open for slaughter this weekend.  yes, slaughter.  i'm going to get to go straight up to mark slaughter this saturday and tell him that in 1989 i saw his band open for warrant...and firehouse...

 

...slaughter...

 

pat seems to think that i'm (hopefully) joking that i'm excited about this show...opening for slaughter...i am.  i am excited.  it's slaughter.  enough said...

 

see you saturday

damn...the site is FINALLY updated.  we got some stories to tell...i bunch of 'em...  i'll start with the second to last home game for the bulls...(i know it's been a while - but the site was being updated).

 

first off..."finding tickets"

you wouldn't think with one of the worst records in the entire NBA, that one would have to fight for tickets.  many a person would offer WAY above face value, but c'mon guys...i'm not paying more than the value of a ticket to watch the hawks play the bulls.  it's not 1993.

 

so, we're waiting outside trying to "find tickets" knowing that danny's already there.  we're planning on meeting up later in the game for some drinks and the like.

 

we found tickets...this is what $10 will get ya...

 

this is where danny is at...

 

can't see him, can you...he's the guy that's "down by the empty seats by the exit" - thanks for the directions...

 

so, we keep drinking and meet at halftime - when the drunkards come out and play

 

eddy curry's got nothing on my ass.

 

matt...now that's another story

 

oh yeah...remember where danny was sitting?  he got us down there with him...the view was tons better

 

this is one of many...just because the site wasn't updated, don't mean shit ain't goin' down yo!  we'll talk soon, and update accordingly...take care - jon
