Wow, is the republicans nomination process out of whack. The Donald
solidified his position with the departure of the vile cruz guy. Who finally
showed up for the job he was elected to do as senator. Others in his party
are not to happy to see him. All the guy has done in the Senate is a very
poorly done reading of Green Eggs and Ham. This Grampa Munster look
alike [Apologies to Al Lewis] with the close to a chipmunk voice didn't
even have the decency to tell his staff he was dropping out. Many of his
campaign workers feel let down. Just think how intense that feeling of
betrayal would be if he had been elected. Oh yeah , those that voted for
him as a Senator feel it already. Adios Dim- Wit- Ted.

I am enjoying the warm albeit soggy weather. Soggy hell
that's an understatement. The freakin' city has been under
water. As I type I am surveying out the studio window and
seeing all the debris tossed around from last nights frog
strangler of a fast moving storm. First drought than floods.
You think there would be a happy medium there somewhere.
Medium hell, make it a large!

With the passing of Prince yesterday I was again transported
back to when I was a kid and the Righteous Brothers had a hit
called Rock and Roll Heaven. In it the guys say "If there's a
rock and roll heaven you know they have a helluva band". Rock
and Roll Heaven had Otis Redding and Jimi Hendrix. In the years
to come John Lennon and Freddy Mercury joined the gang while
Jim Morrison smokes in the corner. The Elvis of the 80's generation
released 33 albums of varied styles and acceptance. His guitar playing
even impressed  Eric Clapton. Rock and Roll Heaven got another
impressive guitarist and artist. Move over one chair Lonesome Dave
give the man a seat!

 Sorry for the delay. Publisher trouble. Fixed now, enjoy.

 Greetings from this years home of the final four, H town.
North Carolina faces the boys from Philly, Villanova.
North Carolina, the state where it is legal to discriminate
against gays, lesbians and tyranny's. That's just for now, who
will be next on the list? Could be anybody not dumber than
a rock that doesn't agree with the new law. One moron, his
name rhymes with cruz even went on record to say men in
dresses will be exposing themselves to your daughters in
public restrooms. Making it sound like our kids just hang
out in craphole public restrooms is absurd. The lawmakers
there have lost their minds using religion as a screen to hide
their intolerance behind. Spend your money elsewhere. I will.

 Another Spring another updating of equipment in the studio.
Wires are everywhere but the sound is still happening. Hope
this finds you well. If it is still frozen where you live perhaps
this can provide you with some necessary warmth on an other
wise dreary day. Enjoy loudly as we get nostalgic with just a
taste of the new.

To many political fireworks going on for my taste. Not the
giant mortars that explode in the air fireworks, more like the
smoldering smoking snake on the sidewalk that is America's
kind. "Get out and vote, and vote often". A quote from the
late Rockcast political analyst Bobcat Jim. If you don't vote
then you don't get to complain about the results is sound advice.
