Bwaa haa haa haaaa....
Looking forward to a good party with the Madeira and the Cocktail Preachers on May 30th at Mike & Molly's in Champaign.
In addition to the music, we will be hauling over the 10'6", 200lb Midwest Tiki Monolith: "Korn-Tiki". We will be whipping up some tropical cocktails, have a Tiki carver and perhaps more mid-century vendors. But I know music rules these boards...and just check out those bands!  _________________ Jet Sterling, Cosmic Spy

Any suggestions on what to offer the surf guitar gods, so I don't go goofy (again) and agree to swap days with the other day shift guy? I don't want to repeat my goof that caused me to miss Cincinnati. I am free that weekend, otherwise.

Beware of the two-headed Pongracic/Martini Surf Monster!

Well, if you are talking about an offering to the 2-headed monster, I know the part in the fez likes these...
If you are talking about making an offering to Korn-Tiki...he seems to like the exotic maidens...

Mmmmmm, exotic maidens.... The non-fez part of the 2-headed monster will also happily accept an offering of an exotic maiden. Oh, wait, the non-fez part of the 2-headed monster is married! Down, boy! Nevermind.
Seriously, thanks Jet for putting this together, we are really excited to play this show - especially since we'll also be celebrating our fifth anniversary, our first show having been on June 5th, 2004. It's gonna be a great time, and it'll be great for both bands to stretch out a bit and play longer sets than usual given that we're the only two bands on the bill. It'll be a blast!! _________________ Ivan

Unfortunately I can't make it 'cause the (insert desired profanities or vulgarities here) I work for have suspended me for 3 days for reasons that are more their fault than my own...they're just covering their own asses. This means I gotta stretch my money for the next couple of weeks, so damnit I can't even enjoy this coming weekend like I wanted to.
IF I do happen to show up, either somebody managed to convince management that I didn't need to be suspended, or I've hit tonight's $223 million PowerBall jackpot. I won't hold my breath (might pass out) or cross my fingers (might get cramps) on this, but life tends to suck when there are people that I wouldn't waste a squirt of piss on that make my life hell "because they can."
I just hope I have a really good seat in the peanut gallery, when they get to hell 'cause I'll be pointing at them and laughing at them for thinking they'd actually make it to heaven. _________________ Fast Cars & Loud Guitars! |

I'm not sure Ryan. My better half takes the videos, and she isn't going this time. Maybe I can figure it out... I will try to take some photos though. _________________ "Look! No head!" - Laika & The Cosmonauts |

Should be a good time. We are setting up a bit of an outlandish set for this thing...which we are installing starting at about 2p today. The gig will be outside and I have been watching the 10-day forecast for 10 days and have been on an emotional rollercoaster (than thing changes every 15 minutes).
Should be an interesting crowd at this based on the people who have contacted me. I do know that there will be a bachelorette party in attendance - not sure if they are doing a scavenger hunt...but who knows Brian, you might head home sporting a refreshing hickey! _________________ Jet Sterling, Cosmic Spy
