Chuck Nessa

I was just going to mention Robbie. In 1966 he slept in the next room for a couple of weeks. Weird dude.

Not sure what the deal is with drummer/bandleaders but I went through emotional rollercoasters with Stevens and Hal Russell. One day I was the savior, the next the worst mf on earth. Then the next time I'm on top of the world. Maybe I should pare this "problem" down to white drummer/leaders. Trevor Watts sent a message to me to relax - John has these "swings" and they don't mean anything. I wish I could lay my hands on the letters.

I'm getting dizzy.

Boy am I relieved. I thought she invented the pop-up timer.

The last 20 years of "Indie improvements" have eluded me.

I think it was recorded at Mike's place and he does not want the wife to know. Many ambiguous entries on Mike's site can be answered by my response.

They were in at least one of the Alan Freed rock films. That's where I first heard of them back when. Just checked and they were in Don't Knock the Rock and The Girl Can't Help It.

I thought that was the way it was? Am I wrong? I can move it back. I don't know - seems whatever I do I get a friggin' assistant. Guess I had finally absorbed the last position.

Stop moving shit!!!!! Hard for us old farts to adapt.

Snow, snow, snow, snow and lake effect snow.

...now, that's not very nice Indianapolis is a beautiful city!!! Is that why you live in Carmel?

I purchased this session from Alan Bates. I will post details when I have time.

Possibly but her daddy would have one of his patented fits. Does he want a family of Italian proportions or not?

Wanda wouldn't like this.

You get it at Manny's?

You shouldn't talk that way about Stubby.

When I was a small child (10 or so) a man at the local lumber yard lost a finger to a table saw. A companion asked how the heck he did that and the guy said "Like this" and said g'bye to another.

Adding even more meaning to the word pooch.

If you see him, you have crossed over to the other side.

Yeah, I thought it was CC.

No, the site was called Adori.

'IF I SAW THAT CHICK WALKING DOWN THE STREET I WOULD HAVE TO INSTANTLY FUCK THE SHIT OUT OF HER.' Who is she? ← Wanda would not have approved Epi.
