You were on here pimping Blvd of Broken Dreams, ho. You laugh at no one.
Allman Brothers Beacon Theater NYC in early 90's. They would play like a week in a row there. Capacity 3,000.
Elvis Costello at Bridgeport Jai Alai circa 1981 or 1982, Imperial Bedroom Tour.

Somewhere a Ford F-150 with UNC plates is begging for it's degenerate owner to take a mirror glasses selfie in it's driver's seat.
The Warriors, man. 
- pretty cool stuff for Klay, especially.
They weren't up & coming at that point, but Outkast at Bogarts was dope AF.

-saw some great shows at Bogarts...nine inch nails, pixies, the connells...myriad of others.
-uk student center ballroom was incedible 400ish people...chili peppers(as mentioned before), violent femmes, Jesus and Mary chain, pixies...Yada Yada Yada. I dont think the SAB puts on any concerts these days. Shame.
-Played across the street at sudsy malones a few times.
*bar/laundromat combo makes for an eclectic crowd.

I saw Alabama at an Opryland amphitheater in 96. The venue could seat about 4-5 thousand people but it wasn’t full at all. I’d say maybe 2K were there because the weather was a little hit or miss.
Ol’ Randy Owen (who is also a Richie Farmer doppelgänger) was hooting’ and hollerin’ and roaming through the crowd during a rendition of “The Closer You Get.” He autographed a lady’s purse right behind me during the second verse. Never missed a note.
Can’t get anymore upclose and intimate than that!

Lil Wayne in Memorial Coliseum. '04 or '05.
It was rowdy in there.
Pretty good night for your boy.

Man, I ended up at Sudsy's a few times, Eclectic is right.
Did you end up at The Warehouse late night?
-holy crap...haven't thought about that place in years. Did well there..."new wave" dance music girls were in my wheelhouse in those days.
I had to watch Goodfellas last night after Ray Liotta's passing. I think it's the third greatest movie of all-time behind the first two Godfathers. They're my personal Holy Trinity of Film. I find it peculiar that Goodfellas and GF3 both came out in 1990. America had been craving another Mafia classic that could measure up to GF 1 and 2. We thought we would get it from Coppola. Instead, we got it from Scorcese.
Also, the first Godfather and Goodfellas end the same way, with a closing door.

* I had some success with some very bad girls at The Warehouse. That seemed to be a popular hangout for strippers after hours. I really liked bad girls.
* I was 5' from the Steve Miller band in a big tent in San Antonio. Was also pretty close to Brooks & Dunn, Kool Moe Dee and some female country singer there. It was a Toyota Dealer meeting.
The Eagles were the main music act, but they played in a big arena. Grand Padre, were you there?
I was right in front of the stage for Yo! MTV Raps Spring Break in Daytona one year. Maybe 1993? Naughty By Nature, ONYX, Stereo MCs, TLC.
Yeah, I'm an old.

The opening 10 minutes or so of Goodfellas may be the greatest in movie history.
Goodfellas may be the greatest soundtrack in cinematic history. Not saying that simply because they're all incredible pieces of music (they are), but their selection for the respective scenes. Just genius.
Tony Bennett's "Rags to Riches" is forever owned by Goodfellas. Amazing.
The movie is a masterpiece.

Underrated movie soundtrack? “Boogie Nights”
Guess Hal thought he was part of the Papaw Brooks and Stoops free drinks/food for life club around Lexington. Sorry bub
Until recently, I never knew Henry Nilsson sang "Jump into the Fire", one of the songs playing during the helicopter sequence. Great song.
Also, that day when Henry Hill gets arrested was May 11th, 1980. I was two weeks old. One week later, Mt. St. Helen's erupts.
Vern talking about movies/shows/music makes me nauseous.
Actually, just Vern talking does.
Have a happy & safe Memorial Day everyone.

“Judgment Night” was GOAT 90s movie soundtrack. Enjoy.
Yesterday we had CPS called on us because the nieces mom found pot in her house and blamed us. So, everyone had to come home between 12-2 for investigation. CPS lady shows up at 5:45.
Come to find out it was all over nothing but because we technically still have temp custody it falls on our responsibility even if it’s at the mothers house.
That complaint didn’t get us in trouble so today there was a report that the nieces are suicidal.
I mean, if you ever have a meth head in your family do everything in your power to give them NOTHING to aim their destruction at you. I mean NOTHING.

Sure it wasn't for your awful No Limit/CMR analysis, b/c I considered calling them for that.

Just got back from Jamaica, very interesting country.
Went into a weed shop upon arrival and purchased essentially a wine bag filled with weed. I honestly couldn’t figure out whether it was legal or not but if it wasn’t no one gave a ****. It was a very nice upper buzz (all sativa) that would last about 1.5 hours and then you were dead sober. None of the grogginess you get when you are snapping out of a high that you get with the insanely potent weed here in the states. More like god intended I’d say.
Food was great - lots of papaya, pineapple, shrimp, snapper, and lobster.
It’s amazing to see incredibly run down shacks in abject poverty literally on the water beside a beautiful beach. Sometimes you need a reminder how rich the states are.
The alcohol was a major disappointment. Very hard to find good liquor and tons of sweet tropical fruity drinks that I couldn’t stomach more than 2 of.
Was really nice to unplug, did I miss any news that happened in the states?

Fantastic. “Fallin’” by Teenage Fanclub is still my 1st song to listen to on a long road trip.
Memorial Day Weekend is turning into my favorite holiday weekend. I see the excitement in my kids’ eyes as we just finished school and jump head first into summer.
The pool opens tomorrow and they can sense it all as they were bouncing off the walls this morning fueled off cinnamon rolls.
They know it’s here. Longer days, popsicles, cookouts, fireflies, a summer trip to the beach, playing in the sprinkler, hanging out with friends at the pool, staying up later, on and on and on.
Playing some tennis in an hour with some buddies, and then the Lass and I will enjoy an agreeable meal at Guacamole on E. Market followed up with a Caddy Shack party at our club to kickoff summer.
This scene in Mad Men always hits when Memorial Day Weekend arrives.
Happy Summer, GYERO. Have fun.

Interesting cat. Documentary on Netflix, I think, worth a look. Drinking buddies with John Lennon. Lot of hits.
The universe hates me (I have self-pity and sympathy for all tragedies) shitdohs:
- Day 3 of 30 of the puppy healing from blowing her knee out. What this taught me? All the ligaments connect at the same point, it's a rare injury and usually happens to young pups. $2,500 and a miserable pup for 1-3 months. May have a straight leg after.
- Got to see Zac Brown many times in local bars in Kennesaw, GA. Widespread in St Aug (awesome little venue).
- Door prop led to the breach of Robb Elementary. That's crushing. Think you're sneaking a quick smoke or grab something from the car and you let in a mass murderer.
- One of our HR ladies lost her husband in Iraq. I had no idea about this but GD wish I did after asking a question and she unexpectedly lost all control of her emotions. Can't imagine. She's also refusing to leave work early.
- Was set to cruise with the wife for her 40th (her idea, not mine). Anyone see that Carnival ship catch fire? Yep, that's the one. Cancelled. Trying to scramble to find somewhere to go for the week.
- Employee has a rescue cat that is about a year old. Vet had to remove all his teeth from a gum disease he has. She said she woke up to him covered in blood from trying to scratch the stiches out of his mouth.
- Don't know if anyone watches Mayan MC. I've stayed with it from the beginning. Decently fills the void of SOA if you enjoyed that. Latest episode was big but not BCS big.
- First time in 4 years I'm starting to reconsider this job. Being in a service business is maddening some days. People are so f'ing wound up over the dumbest ****. Just want to be behind the- scenes making others look good. I don't need the fanfare. I don't need a "good job". Just give me a list to do, pay me and leave me the F alone.
- Wynn should be getting more royalties for gummies. Got about 10 more folks onboard.
- Sounds absolutely pathetic to admit but this was the first work week in 4 yrs I didn't drink. Didn't miss it, either. Going back to weekend warrior drinking. Smoke weed everyday.
- My vet's office figured out a solid disarming of worked up people. They tell you the bad news, put a puppy video on the monitor and bounce. Have to say, it worked for me and I'm as grumpy and moody as it gets. But man, I worship pups now. Still trying to unload our two ****-weasel cats. I don't even know they exist until it's time to feed them.
- Had some college grads (niece and friends) at the house for a few nights recently. Learned no one has taught these kids liquor before beer, you're in the clear. Beer before liquor, never been sicker. I find that inexcusable to be in college and not know that. Oh, the one that said she has never been hungover was puking in a trash can all night. B-word, don't challenge me on this. I got my Aunt so drunk one night she vomited so hard she lost a crown.
- One of the really nice courses nearby had a pipe burst. Absolutely amazing how much damage that did. Took about a 40 foot section of fairway out.
- Enjoy the long weekend, Wildcat Friends. A lot of badass folks gave the ultimate price so we can argue the dumbest of dumbshit all day.

We just finished “the staircase” on Netflix and good lord, what a case.
Just installed one of these in the bar…fun AF.
So addictive. Can play with beer in hand and no fear of impaling anyone like darts.
It has been mentioned a thousand times but these white UK baseball unis with script Kentucky are absolute uniform perfection. The only thing UK has done in recent memory that is close are those Randolph Morris era SEC edition jerseys.
I saw Willie Nelson at the Kentucky Theater, a fundraiser for Gatewood Galbreath. Got them both to sign a JOB which I kept for many years. Ended up rolling one with it, with my best man, the night before my wedding.

One of the more maddening bar games of all time
I had my car serviced this afternoon and tried to sneak out to the driving range afterwards around 3:15 this afternoon. The kid at the desk advised me to go look for a spot first before buying a bucket because it was *full* with a dozen people waiting for a bay and a handful more waiting it out on the practice green.
In summation, I went from a playin’ hookey range sesh to an early daycare pickup - Just an absolutely devastating 14 point swing on the opening kick to start this holiday weekend.
Need some momentum to change here big and soon.

Ice cold Budweiser longnecks are a good place to start, Joey. I’m currently speaking from a position of knowledge.
Good. I'll keep doing it. I like it when you don't feel well.
Matthew Mayer to Illinois. That's surprising. I thought it was certain he'd go to UNC to replace Manek.
