    Are they touring in a seniors bus?

    Seriously, you arent helping my attempt to save money. I think I can still fit into my Z. Cavaricis, I can definately still wear my old club shirts. Now off to Ticket master to check out ticket prices.

    You might want to dig out the porkpie hat, skinny tie and Doc Martins by the sound of that tour.

    Pretty cool.

    Good good good. Glad to hear Fishbone is back together and working. I interviewed Angelo on whatever College station is in Athens. Not because I lived in Athens, or worked at the station. I was just visiting a friend who had a friend who worked at the station who was supposed to interview him and knew nothing about Fishbone. Sadly, 30 seconds before the interview, I was informed that this was all about his new "Doctor Madvibe" project, and he didn't want to talk about fishbone. Ooopsadaisy.

    90.5 FM is WUOG, Athens.

    I used to do midnight to 3:00 on Wednesday nights. I also subbed for Loud Fast Rules a few times. That ruled.

    OK, I just might have to go see this. I'm suddenly overcome with the urge to hear both "Lying Ass Bitch" and "Twist and Crawl"...

    Wow I saw Fish Bone in concert in Austin, Tx about 13 years ago, and that was after their hayday, and they are still doing it. SWEET!

    I might have to go see the English Beat, a good friend of mine who passed away last month knew some of the band members, I'm sure they'll play the 9.30 club in D.C. Hope I got some spare cash for then, it can get kinda pricey for older popular acts.

    That sounds like a cool show!

    I saw Madness at a festival last year, and had a great time. They easily upstaged the bigger, contemporary indie bands.

    OK, so who's going to the ATL show this Friday? I'm only 3 hours up I-85 and would definitely make the drive for Fishbone. Funny someone mentioned the show at 9:30 club in DC. I saw them at 9:30 club when it was still at 930 F Street.

    Ah, still can't go. I've got cars to fix, and a Scana bill to pay. Thanks for the heads-up, tho.
