Rivethead by Ben Hamper is the story of an auto assembly line worker; if you want to find out what blue-collar life is like, this is the book to read. Aloha, Brad

I ask for and get glasses of water all the time at clubs here in Ottawa, no problem, no cost (and they have ice in them). Aloha, Brad

But make sure they're 10,000 really skinny friends, otherwise they won't all fit in the venue... Aloha, Brad

hondo: Are you with KS? I'd like to know if they're OK with being recorded, as I plan on recording David Lauzon at the Mavericks show on Sept. 30, and could easily record KS as well (and just give a CD back to the band, without any other distribution without their OK). Aloha, Brad

I don't know, but the answer will probably be found in http://www.labour.gov.on.ca/english/es/ and http://www.labourrelations.org/LabourLawOntario/LabourLawOntario.html (though the latter deals more with unions and collective bargaining). Aloha, Brad

Head to http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20060919 and keep the page in view for half a minute or so. Aloha, Brad

David Lauzon is the opening act for this one. Aloha, Brad

I think it's October 18-22. Aloha, Brad

Is this the photo you wanted? Trip happily, KM & L! Aloha, Brad

Actually, it wasn't (just) an attack on his grammar: it was a refutation of his claims of being a "superior writer", backed up with examples of mistakes a writer shouldn't make. Aloha, Brad

Have you read "On A Cold Road" by (Rheostatic) Dave Bidini? It's a collection of stories of Canadian rock'n'roll life on the road, told amidst the threaded tale of the Rheostatics. Aloha, Brad

[voice=Janice the Muppet]Oh, maaan, being a skank isn't about having a label displayed to the public, being a true skank is about being a skank on the in-side (and in"side" isn't a side, like your left side or your right side, it's an entire region, that encompasses all that's within you), you dig?[/voice] Aloha, Brad, Who Prefers the Term "Sanctuarian"

There's part of me that almost hopes I get a telemarketing call Tuesday evening... [phone rings; bradm picks it up] "Ahoy Matey!" "Uh, hi. May I speak to Brad, please?" "Arrr. Who be calling Brad? Be ye a scurvy dog?" "Actually, it's [someone bradm don't know] from [some corporate entity bradm doesn't want to talk to]." "Arrrr! My timbers be shivered, and my lilies be livered! A telemarketerrrrr! To the walkin' plank with ye! I'll meet ye in Davey Jones' locker before I let ye talk to Brad!" [bradm hangs up] Aloha, Brad

I guess if you're Willie Nelson, 1.5 pounds of marijuana constitues a "personal use" amount... Aloha, Brad

Right now: The Golden Dogs 2006-09-13 from Mavericks in Ottawa. On deck: Jokko and The Souljazz Orchestra, both from 2006-09-14 at Babylon in Ottawa. Aloha, Brad

Having this occur today just made my Monday significantly better. Happy Day, Doc! Aloha, Brad

Thanks, Deeps; I think your set was the best of yours that I've seen. It had the intensity of last month's Zaphod Beeblebrox show, but was stretched out more, and the closing covers were a blast. Aloha, Brad
