bouche Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 (plus, our sick days are called life balance days in which you dont need to fake sick, you just say "i'm taking a life balance day" and that's that.)I'm going to start calling them that! When I say I'm not coming in, I don't need a reason, but I'd like to say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 ya, its a pretty neat thing. i can't believe how spoiled some workers get though. you wouldn't believe the stink folks over here put up when they found out their sick days (8 per year) were being dropped by ONE to 7 when they changed the policy from 'being sick (or lying)' to 'life balance days'. i was happy that now i get to go fishing without having to say i'm sick, and to do so, i only lost one day.

Just want to know so I can plan my day, I mean drinking.It's St. Patty's, the only "drinking planning" you have to do is wake up and start.

TheGoodRev Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Thanks to all who are interested in coming early to catch our set. We're excited to be on this bill. As Brodie said, the Fat Cats will be on at their usual 12am. I would say that a logical schedule would be 10-11-12 for the three bands, but jam shows usually don't get started that early...why don't you all help us change that so we can get started at 10 and play a healthy set? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

\/\/illy Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 You goin' record kooky? larry? Willy? me?We'll be recording the Fatties for sure. Will record everything if we get there in time but you know how St. Patrick's Day goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I must be really detached from music lingo. If I didn't know of The Fat Cats and read "Roots & Groove", I'd be looking for another party. No offence meant; I'm just thinking I really don't know what the fuck music genre names mean anymore.

TheGoodRev Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Well, we had a blast playing. Thanks to all who came early to see our set. We're playing this Friday night at Absinthe with The Boss Hoss, a German roots-rock/country band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!Glad I made it out to see the Achievers achieve a solid opening performance. Big fun watching you move between the electric and the Pedal Steel. Good singing too.Despite how young the band is and the excellent performances of the other bands you guys held up quite nicely.Go see the Achievers if they're coming through yo town folks.

edger Posted March 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 I echo Deep's sentiments. I'm glad that we made it down early enough to catch the last half of the Achievers. I unfortunately missed the pedal steel though (much to my dismay as that was really what I was looking forward to... but you know what it's like getting a bunch of people moving early in the evening). Regardless it was nice to be introduced to your band GoodRev. I would definitely check you guys out again.Slowcoaster was rockin (see other thread).The place was packed!! All kinds of people seem to come out of the woodwork on St. Patties... go figure...Well despite the fact that some of Todd's pedals were not in working order, the show was good times. The sound was CRANKED (as usual in the Casbah). Add that to my steady decline in hearing ability. GOod times do not come without their hazards I suppose. Lots of people dancing. Truthfully my recollection is a little foggy on this one. Thanks to Willy for the pre-game shennanigans. That obviously got things off on a good start for me. And thanks to Wassink Wild Card and MarcO for giving me and my sleepy, spacy hubby a place to crash. Mmmmm....late night chippies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kookycanooky Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 willy, your buddy took a patch off my rig and what I got sounds good except for the last bit of the show...there was an inherent buzz on the board...(big suprise).The rest of it sounds awesome though.
