  1. Day off in Switzerland. Life is good.

  2. Off to Switzerland to play the Sierre Blues Festival tonight!

  3. Belgium, what's up? 6 hours of sleep and it's know almost 7pm. Hope I can get to sleep tonight. The plane ride was atrocious but hey, I'm in mf'ing Belgium!!! BELGIUM, MAN!

  4. Off to Europe for the third time this year. Belgium, Switzerland, and Norway. Should be a fun trip!

  5. Three gigs kickin' bass this weekend. I haven't done an organ trio gig since early May. My left leg is about to fall off! I'm out of shape on the bass pedals!

  6. Ah, technology. I just saw my new laptop, which I bought about three months ago, on sale at Staples for $400 less than I paid. >:/ Oh well. I'm still enjoying this computer!

  7. I have never seen the neighbor's daughter, who is 2 months younger than my own Scarlett (22 months), outside other than on their little upper deck, which is about the size of a truck bed. They also have a huge dog they never walk. [sigh]

  8. Back home. On the hunt for a minivan. Got about $6k in cash to play with. I want a 2005 or newer with low miles (less than 90k). Ideas?

  9. Ever read what's in most "crab meat" products?
  10. Nothing like getting up at 3:45am to go to the airport. Oh well. Got upgraded to 1st class for the flight to Minneapolis and probably on the one to Detroit as well. And I'll be back with my babies by 3pm. Life is good!

  11. Makes me sick to my stomach.
  12. It's great news, Allen, and well deserved!
  13. Going to check out the opportunities for becoming a dental floss tycoon in Montana tomorrow after I fly out to play the Magic City Blues Festival in Billings on Friday night! I packed my heavy duty zircon encrusted tweezers in my carry-on.

  14. This is incredibly shocking. And I hate to say this but it freaks me out that we are friends on FB and he could see pictures of my kids. I think it might be time to take all that stuff down and just use FB as a business outlet.
  15. Traveler's Tip: They should rename the restaurant TGIF to TSID. My stomach (and the rest) has been rolling since I ate a burger in the one at the Minneapolis airport yesterday evening. Good Lord, sweet baby Jesus! Save me!

  16. Ok, so both my vans are dead. Crap. Anyone know of a church or individual who wants a mint '74 B3 with a 122 Leslie? I'll let it go cheap.

  17. No, it is not possible to load the XK3 settings into the SK1 directly (ie, from a file). I don't know if you can even edit the virtual tonewheels of the SK1. I don't think you can.
  18. Home. Home. Home. Soon.

  19. No it shouldn't make a difference at all soundwise. Though the preamp of an M3 is at a certain impendence. You might need to match the impedence of the 1/4" input on the 3300, something the kit probably does automatically. But it might sound fine as is. That's good news you're coming to the festival! Definitely seek me out!
  20. The jam earlier today was a lot of fun. It was Janiva and the band with three members of the Preservation Hall Brass Band, Joe Louis Walker, Duke Robbilard, Colin Linden, and John Mayall! A good time was had by all! We'll see who comes out to the jam tonight that we're hosting as well!

  21. Playing the Calgary International Blues Festival tonight! Hopefully this head cold will subside by this evening. Love my kids, but they are little germinators! :)

  22. If you make the drive to Hell, I'll certainly have time to say hello and chat with you!
  23. We will be in Hell, Norway on September 2nd at the Hell Blues Festival and then in Oslo on September 4th. Not sure what the gig is in Oslo yet. I think Hell is about 5 hours from you. That's quite the distance! I just looked up Aalesund and it looks amazing! I love Norway. One of my favorite European countries by far. The 1174 kit would certainly work.
  24. Whoa. Just got an automatic First Class upgrade via Delta for my flight to Edmonton tomorrow. That's a first for me. It pays to be Silver Medallion. :D

  25. Goodbye, office computer that I built in January of 2000. It still works, but I replaced the guts (mobo, RAM, CPU, PSU... basically just kept the harddrives) with my old music machine. 11 years is pretty good!
