MSG is my backyard, so all good. then...that 'possible' added mansfiled date, taunted me.....so now....5 shows, added hartford and hopefully mansfield. fuck being good...i like being bad.

I was talking to a buddy today to make sure he reserved his Mansfield tix. We talked about the open date (June 29) and wondered if the band would be doing anything. He says, "God, I hope not.....I can't afford anything else" Then we both laughed, saying that we knew we'd be going to anything else that was scheduled in the Mass area that weekend, or following week.

Hey, we're supposed to be stimulating the economy with these checks we're getting this summer, right? I can't think of a better way to do it.

POST OF THE DAY AND MAYBE THE WEEK.

Well I am happy to go to 2 Florida shows I would have liked to have gotten tickets for the SC Show.But oh well.I will be getting that money from the goverment in May or June to pay for Tees and Posters.

joint in a tree

3 shows, beginning the day we get back from our honeymoon, is completely wiping us out. Well, that and....

i've got my wedding in June, and buying a house (on Long Island, if anyone knows what kind of $$ that entails) before then.

i would even have free crash pads in SC and DC, but just can't afford the tickets or the time off.

well, like Mandi and I said, for the "next tour" we will all be richer and have much more flexible jobs!

(good luck with MSG, Mandi)

peace.

Mansfield 6/30, I guess that'll be Mansfield II if 6/28 gets confirmed.

Never again is correct. I was with great people but it just didn't work for me.


For those can do it go for it. I'm retired from that for good. lol

Well then put yourself to good use and grab some Dinosaur takeout and some Zweigle's White Hots and Yuengling from Wegmans right before you hit the Thruway!!!
