WTF is this mess? 1. Diesel Dog is awesome. 2. The members of Diesel Dog are awesome. ESPECIALLY Doug. 3. If you haven't seen Diesel Dog in the last while, you are really missing out. They have totally stepped up their game over the years. Every time this band plays, they get better and better. 4. Every single time I've seen Diesel Dog (which has been more times than I can possibly count), I have pure, unadulterated FUN with all capital letters and maybe even some swear words thrown in. They make me dance and mean it, there are ALWAYS fun people I like at the shows, the music is never half-assed or disappointing, and it's a fricken treat-of-the-week if you have the pleasure of hanging out with any of these guys after the show. Doug steps into an already pages long crankypants party themed with whether ottawa sucks or not, whether the scene is dead, and how many lawn chairs you can cram into mavericks, and out of this entire buffet of miscontent, he's being targeted? this is just very odd.
