Look Alike?



Do I really look like Lee Curreri from Fame ? And was the show Fame popular in the UK. A day does not go by that someone doesn't ask me if I am Lee from Fame.

Kilty As Charged in Glasgow, Scotland

I am actually running from Meat, who is trying to pull up my kilt, not knowing I have my fashionable boxers on with the built in butt.

Kilt Shopping


These are two friends of mine, Bud and Phil, that hooked me up with a kilt for the show in Scotland. A true Scotsman would not wear anything under the kilt, but I knew if I wore a kilt that someone in the band would be pulling up at it. At the end of the show Meat did a dash straight to me, at the bows, and pulled up on my kilt, not knowing that I went shopping with Crook and found a pair of funny underwear at a joke shop with red and white stripes and a fake butt sewed on to it. So when Meat pulled up on my kilt it looked like I was mooning the crowd. After Meat did this I pulled down the fake butt underwear and threw it in the crowd. It was a good laugh. It was really comfortable playing in the kilt, but just a little breezy.

Marshmallows

You all thought I was kidding but this crazy man is camping out behind me roasting marshmallows as the show is going on.

In Search

Well today we made it to Scotland and are in search of a kilt. I don't know much about them, but would like to wear one for today's show. I think I will need those long socks also so I don't have to have my legs waxed. My worry is I am going to look a lot like Shrek in this kilt, but here goes.

Great View

We just finished our second night at the MEN at Manchester. Two sold out shows, what a great crowd. Check out this view from my seat, pretty crazy. For those of you that have seen the show, I think I will set up backwards next week so that I can tan my front also. Those flames roast my butt, the first time they went off they scared the crap out of me. Joe, my tech, sits behind me and I was worried if he was alright, so I turned around and there's Joe roasting marshmallows off one of my drum sticks. I'm looking forward to the Birmingham show, but I'm prepared; this time I got my sun tan lotion.

If any one can tell me the story about the question of the month, from April 15th, I will send you a set of drumsticks.

Peace
John

Welcome

Whaaaats Up.
I think I need to explain a little of what is on this blog. See I really do not know much about Blogs, and when I was putting this site together with Deb she said you really should put one on the site. So of course I gave in as you see. All that you see below on the blog is me talking to myself, execpt for Deb saying hang in there. I would try different things like puting in a hyper link, or learning how to put on a pic and being able to click on it to bring you to another page. I did use real info, like the glasses I wear for the show or the question of the month. So please hang in there with me I'm sure this learning curve has just begun.
Thanks
John
