    You know my friend Bob Sacamano?   Well, he called last night about 3am, we got to talking, he sells Russian hats down at Battery Park, forty bucks.

    Does he still work at that condom factory?

    "He took the hat off and he hid his head in his hands. You could tell he was crying. He kept saying under his breath, 'You can't fucking do that.' Then Mr. Andrews said, 'What's that, Brian?' And he said, 'Nothing.' And then a minute later, he said, 'It's not a distraction. The guy at the store said I'm the only guy he's ever seen pull it off.'"


    Let the man wear a hat if he wants to.   :D

    As for the touring, I think this is it for the year. There haven't been any leaks or rumors from the people who truly know stuff.
    It feels to me like this year the game changed a bit in terms of the insiders sharing touring plans or any hints...  EV Japan came out of nowhere, and even PJ@Ohana was more speculation than anything shared by anyone in the know.

    Absolutely! It changed a lot after their management change, and even more so again this year.

    Yea. I had called Ohana early on, but it was total conjecture lol. My thinking was - 10 year anniversary of Ohana. 35 year anniversary of the band. It's a decent enough amount of time from Pitts 2025 to Ohana 2026 where they would've lined things up with somebody new + practice time = perfect venue / time to show off a new drummer. Absolutely zero insider info.

    She has a Marisa Tomei thing going on.

    Too bad you got a George Costanza thing going on.

    "I think we need to get out and play like 10, 15 shows with whoever our drummer is and just kind of get that part going before we make a record.' Ament said.

    The key question for me is when are they planning the 10, 15 shows?  Does it make sense to get together, rehearse the new guy and mobilise the PJ crew just for a one-off show?  Or use that same prep for a short post-Ohana run in the buildup to the midterms? 
    Fall '26 would be great for those 10, 15 shows.

    Shared earlier that PJ would play Ohana and they would introduce their new drummer.  My source never fails, but plans often change.

    So are you saying they were supposed to play Friday & Sunday or that they will play Friday & Sunday?

    Pointed to the comments above which predicted 1) they'd be playing Ohana and 2) revealing the drummer at there.

    Actually my source is 100% correct on the "plans" but those often change.  Try to follow along pony boy.

    Why would anybody living in a country filled with ponies come to a non-pony country?
