Where are we? Alabama?
Click Here to see Q and A I did with a guy who axed me sum questions the other day
We just poured out of the van like root beer at 3 am ish after playing a show in Atlanta. We shared the bill with Michelle Malone. She's way cool and it was great meeting her band as well. We shared drums and bass amps which helped the load in that is up a couple flights of stairs outside the club in the back. The sound at Smiths Olde Bar was crazy good last night. I haven't played there in years so it was nice reconnect with the Atlanta peeps.
The letter in the picture above is one I wrote to Lou and Rain the other morning before we left their fine house. I guess it is a thank you letter of sorts. I forgot that Chris Modl took a picture of it and I thought you might like to see it. See what a good speller I am? Catholic school paid off. Thanks Ma n Pa.
I think we're in the middle of Alabama headed for Austin Texas and SXSW. We all just peed outside the van before we checked into the room and did our best to get arrested by Alabama's finest. Didn't The Stones get busted for that years ago? Patrick tells me they did but he ain't sure either. He now tells me it was East London where it happened. I once got a speeding ticket in Tuscaloosa but that's another story.
Come to one of my many shows in Austin this week. The madness all starts on Wednesday. Check my tour dates for the full scoop. I will be scuttling with my fine band of Cynics back and forth on go karts for the whole festival. We'll be handing out bottles of root beer and free money to anyone who wants it. We're also giving away shoes to everyone. Really expensive Italian shoes and bars of gold. And dentures. And lemonade flavored car fresheners. Plus The Green Bay Packers are going to be doing a dance routine at most of our performances so we got that going for us. You probably shouldn't even bother seeing any of the other "acts."
Yours in lice,

So have you heard the "shocking news".
A politician (NY's very own Governor Spitzer) was busted with a prostitute. Come on, that's as believable as a model doing cocaine (oh yeah Kate).

Mr. Clean got a little dirty...
I know it's scandalous and shocking that a politician would ever do such a thing... tee hee hee... Thought i'd pass on my laugh for yesterday!!!
I like the note. It's clear you've been working on your penmanship as well as your spelling. Additionally, you appear to have picked up some wonderful collaboration skills that will surely benefit you in your future endeavors. On the other hand, it might not have been the best idea to leave the note behind as evidence. Bet you when Lou sees you in TX he will pummel you into submission with his hair. Or perhaps he'll simply run you over with his rental car.
I see that you have the entire day off and only about 900 miles to cover. What are you doing with all your spare time? I heard you were learning to knit. Just so you know, I need gloves.
lice?! I'm rethinking getting my cds signed. I will admire from a healthy distance. Do you need one of those special combs? ;)
Umm... in regards to your interview, cod liver oil is better than fish oil when heated and crack beats meth anyday!!!
dearest fierce cougar,
'rencie, weenie and i just saw your expensive italian shoe shopping buddy play a monkees' cover at the hole in the wall. pb says hi.
yours in christ,
snowballer
Hitchhiking down a runway right now as I type into a stolen laptop. Yup, I'm doing it all for the rootbeer and free bars of gold!!!
You should make a run up to Lawrence Kansas sometime. Or maybe hop on the Wakarusa bill? That would be awesome.
Lice are lousy all the time. I stole that. I can't lie. I miss your face. come sing to me.
YouTube video dedicated to Governor Spitzer going down in the state of NY!!!

Yeah I know it's an anomaly a politician soliciting services of a lady in waiting.
Just as much as a model doing coke, ooops Kate!!!
