mark tonin Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Sean, thanks for posting the birthday news, and Eric, have a great day. Really glad I met you ... how did we meet again ... did we ever figure that out? Maybe somehow via Sean? For some reason I think I was looking for some Zappa shows for a friend and someone (maybe Sean or Allan D.?) gave me your contact info. For those of you who don't know Eric Warren, aka Tungsten Gruvsten, to bad, so sad, your loss! Eric has a huge range of musical knowledge and appreciates lots of different styles of music ... I'm always blown away by the vast range of tunes he listens to and appreciates. Plus the man knows how to party and laugh and he's a really nice guy! Plus he does some super-duper recording, and has helped me out in a big way with sound at a few shows. I swear, if he wasn't already in a great relationship ... oops, sorry to bring that thread up again! All the best to you, my friend! Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Happy Birthday Eric! When I first met Eric, it was last year in Kitchener. Tonin brought me to his place...a very smokey place Anyway, he gave me the tour of his home-built, ebay-fueled studio. Wire monsters everywhere. I was tempted to turn knobs or plug things into other things, but I realized that Erics love would probably turn into violence. Upstairs, he was clearly in charge of the stereo. As Northern Wish and a few other dudes were sitting around waiting to go to see the Rheostatics, Eric was enteraining everyone's ears with Scofield and maybe even a track or 2 from one of his mixes. Eric's always one of the few that everyone looks forward to arriving at our little city in Frontier Town to entertain us with his quick-witted one-liners, perhaps even to relate a story or 2 told with a humour unlike anyone else. Happy Birthday dude! See you at Frontier Town! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this Asparagus? Is he Asparagus?" to a generally confused room ...hehehe i remember my one roommate turning to me and saying "who the fuck is this guy and what's with the asparagus??" keee-rist i still titter over that one...

Yeah, If I remember august CTMF correctly, the first thing you ever said to me was that you'd run over a deer a mile down the road and that the body was never found, but your car was a write-off. I don't think anybody could top a story like that. What ever happened with that anyways? Happy Birthday Pal. See you at CTMF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottieking Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 So Northern Wish calls me up on Dec 5/99 and says "Hey I got this buddy that needs a ride to Rochester. Can you pick him up at the Timmy outside of Woodstock?" The rest was history. That was my birthday. Today it's his. Happy B-day, Mr. Warren. From border runnin to Beachcomber stickers and all adventures after, I'm happy to call you friend. Hope it's a grand one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottieking Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Caption: As new day dawned in the Sanctuary camp, it became quite obvious that Dr Huxtable's little "kiss and run" tactics from the night before did not play well with Tungsten. "Not even the courtesy of a reach-around" Eric mumbled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
