"Freitag 3 June 2022. Sonntag 3 June 73 I first jammed with O. rex and played bass and sang with O. Rex whilst Biggie Ratt wowed the medway mofos. 49 years later I sing and play bass NOT in the Beatles but mad painter. riding out with drummer Al Hendry and guitarist Schmel Herbie Hind as Grand Funk Live Album cranked, we have a gig in rural Sunderland Mass. and saw a roadhouse ala Blues Brothers where they were 'the good ole boys". In back was some jammers on the patio doing Bob Seger songs; rural biker bar, but that is SO Brockport NY. This is The O's Music Bar,Sunderland mass, like 'em on facebook! VERY nice folks,no Big City attitude. 21 plus, no cover, please tip and we made $40.75 which is $163 in tips for four bands WAY the fuck more than I EVER made playing new York City with Glider in rural conditions that I prefer. 8 pm was Track Meat (I have stickers!): Their bandcamp says "vaguely depressing post-punk" and though I thought the Gin Blossoms song echoed Husker Du, Dinosaur Jr. IS an influence on these UMASS kids (Indiana university punk 1976 with Gizmos; Childern of the Ken!). Track Meat FB page. Mad Painter has a YouTube of show, so watch it and dig it! 10
pm Lives of Crime says spotify "is a rock
band from western mass. formed 2015." I referenced The rusty nail
and bassist's grandfather had took him there! recent history was
also good rock; Lives
of Crime facebook page. "do we have any graduates?";
class of 2022; born in 2000! this was like old blooze guys playing
da blooze for young college crowds about 1968! Ride home we sang
along with the Doors and at 0100 tuned into Coast to Coast and
it was George Noory's birthday! subject; ancient Egypt! A full
day and a fun tyme!"....

Saturday, June 11, 2022 day of Frigga! 10 June 2022. A mad painter practice, a new song I enjoyed was like jazz-y '70s Traffic (Mach Bell in barn with artist friend Linda lissenin' to Welcome to the Ararat) and "whippin' post' (I had colonial ancestors both sides whipped for: fornication/preaching Quakerism and "filthy dalliances' in new Haven, predating my Lizard King kuz and "peace frog" by 300 years!); song also had some Zombies chords, but that jazz-jam, Alex Gitlin admits was inspired by Wishbone Ash! MY '70s/punk HADNT happened YET tail was watching Ash on the mean Screen with Jailbait Janet's boyfriend early '74, State Street Brockport NY near the train tracks! "Take me back home", schmel herbie hind plays "Frederick" off Jefferson Airplane's Volunteers album and we were digging on Jorma's wah-wah on some long Plan Nine-style jam; The Jefferson Air Force? Speaking of, let's do June happenings...father's day, 19 June 2022 COULD be busy! Al Hendry drums with leon Rich at noon at the Jungle and the randall Gibson memorial is 3-9 pm at French club, Waltham...Culture Clash? Culture Club! Captain PJ's kin from Chetticamp Nova Scotia built that club, his dad got BANNED in '60s with Country Playboys for "turn down!" "stick it up your ass!": LARRY LEBLANC; A true PUNK! BEFORE PUNK! and on saint john's day, don't go freebasin' with a freemason, go up to geno's in Portland maine and catch Tiger Bomb/ gene dante and Kenne Highland's Air Force! Alta kaka rockin' headlinin' over Chris Brood and gene dante? LOOK for special guest stars at that gig too! (Fuck Aeroshit; Thundertrain doin' "I'm Not talkin'", such a great yardbirds b-side). Figuring the backline, gene Dante HAS offered up his amp, which I'm swappin' to use for a "special" guest appearance! Crown Electric got nuthin' on us! mad Dogs and Highlanders!
