Hmm, that's not too far away.
Need an opening opening act to sing songs about Dead Dogs, Chicken with no Feet, and a wife that farts in bed?
I could spiritualize it and make them seasonal.

Wes you would be more than welcome to be an honorary Bano. It used to cause confusion when I'd be billed as The Banos and then show up by myself. You'll have to think up a name for yourself. Or maybe not, if KISS can replace Ace and put another guy in the space suit ...
You have your pick sir. You'd have to play your Casino.

Remind me to tell you my delamination story sometime about the new guitar I bought in April. Thank goodness for great guitar techs. The Fender guy got me a brand new guitar, even better than the one I had.

Bano-el-mano,
The bill is full for that night, but what great prospects for a future, eh?!
Bax,
You really gonna come all the way up from SLO? Don't forget to follow the star!
Joey T,
Now that'll be a Christmas treat, no doubt! Glad to hear it!
ALL,
There is a mexican restaurant in Bellingham I have adopted. The tequitos are pretty good, they treat me like family and they name of the place is "Cinco de Mayo". The significance is huge in my figuring for any who have read my book.
PS: LOVE that Chris-moose!

Bill is full.
Coward.
The church still isn't ready for the likes of me. I remember back in the early 80's I was at a very heavenly pentecostal church with some buddies, and there was a coffee house thing going on.
All of the extra happy songs were playing, and the kids were having a great time raising their hands and showing my friends and I who were mere Anglicans how to be pious. A bunch of them knew I played as I had been in town earlier that year playing at a youth conference. They asked me to play a few songs. I declined. But they kept bugging me to play.
At the time I was in my mid teens and my songs were about flatulent rats, a kid pulling the wings off a butterfly to make a worm, a squashed cat and kraft dinner (there were others, once about a frog we had hooked up to an electric fence by accident, a rabbit, and a rain barrel). I showed rared discernment by telling them I was probably not an appropriate choice.
"OH NO" they say, God is working in you. No sh*t I say to myself, and he's gonna have to keep working. I'm constantly underconstruction. But I smile and say no. After the third time saying no, I thought I heard a cock crow.
So what happens? Some girl had just finished singing Jesus Loves Me or something like it, and the announcer guy goes up to the mic and says that it's with great pleasure that he welcomes Jevon to the share with us his musical ministry.
My buddy Gord starts to laugh so hard I thought he'd fall over. He knows what'll happen once I get up there. I shrug and walk up to the stage, and wave to the crowd of about a hundred. The Jesus Loves Me chick is giving me a smile usually reserved for paintings of the Madonna. I ask her if I could borrow her guitar.
So I launch into the first and last song I ever played there. Forty-nine rats. What a classic song. My buddy Gord did the audience participation piece by doing a loud raspberry in the appropriate place. When I finished the little table of 5 or 6 I was sitting with broke into wild applause. Meanwhile there were 90 or so ashen faces looking at me in silence. I could feel the power of two or more praying that a big hole would open up in the stage and swallow me whole.
I was detuning to do the Butterfly song when the announcer ran up and basically ushered me off the stage. At least he didn't have one of those long hook things and yank me off by my neck.
I handed the guitar back to the Jesus Chick, and she held it out away from her as if I'd handed her a snake.
I make my way back to the table, but it's empty. "Cowards!" I think to myself, then I see them standing by the door, boxed in on either side by the ushers (they had thick necks, and would be passable bouncers if they weren't so Christ-like). Apparently they were separating the chaff from the wheat.
We all left, and somewhat somberly walked down the sidewalk. In an effort to cheer me up, Gord started making a series of very impressive raspberries to the tune of The Stroke by Billy Squier.
So Theo, I'm not hurt, or even let down.
When you're ready I'll be ready.
True story, in fact I'd almost forgotten all about it ...

Terry and I were shootin' the shinolo at C-Stone and I said that what I REALLY wanted was to have a DA reunion gig at my church (if I got the position--which at that time I hadn't yet).
Terry says he's up for it but laughs and adds that I should start easy. He'd hate to have me lose my position right off just for the sake of art.
The way I look at it, if bringing two of the Dogs and Harmon in gets me in trouble, then I'm in the wrong place. If I brought YOU in and got in trouble I probably asked for it (based on what you've said). Give me a year, Jevon, and we'll live dangerously!
Your brother, in absurdity. (you should hear a few of my unsavories) HA!

It'd be nice to finally get together. What would be great would be a Saturday, then (if I could) I'd spend the night and just go to church from there. Or better yet, if I came up after church some Sunday, it'd be great for "me" cause I don't have to do anything on Monday. Course, you probably have to work or something like that! sheesh!
But we'll do it. We'll work it out.
Also, don't be so sure that those tunes about butterflys aren't Jesus tunes. Well, you be sure. I haven't heard 'em yet!
