This is going to require me to move to KW.
(Bobcat - can I get some sofa space until I get my project off the ground??)
I hate radio and media this time of year - you can't get away from Christmas stuff.
But, every year, it's the same damn thing. The Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Gary "Ho Ho" Hoey... While it's kind of cool, it's still the same damn thing every year.
These guys are making a living touring for like a month and a half a year, doing the same gig every year. And doing the same radio interviews every year.
So, here's my plan:
Buy a steel drum, and learn to play Christmas songs on it. (Com'on who doesn't love the sound of a steel drum).
Grow my hair back out so I look like Jeff Spicoli again, and be a beach bum.
Record and sell the record's with a couple rasta guys playing percussion - and tour and do radio interviews.
It's so simple it could work.
What do you think?
I maybe should have just posted this in the PUI thread...

Remember - this is a Christmas thing, so the dog is going to have a sense of humility and wear the damn antlers.
Need a more goofy, uncommon breed. Can't have people thinking about "rufus" that they left at home tonight.
I was hoping the 22/Uncle Sam guy would keep me from having to juggle.
I can juggle, just not very well.
Sharp objects, and lots of beer, and juggling... 1+1+1=amputation.
Hell, I still need to learn to play "Rudolph" on the steel drum.
You have to admit....
The sound of a steel drum just mentally puts you on a beach..."Keep the bottle on the bar Ira, I won't be long".

12-10-2008 11:15 PMIf you're going for the island thing with a rasta band, I think the dog you need is a Komondor. What other dog comes with dreads?
