JLW NEWS
I was on the cruise and talked to Joe just before his removal to medical help. He was in a wheelchair and in extreme pain. Just the night before he tore everyone a new one with Tommy Castro at the all night jam.
Don't just wish him well... send him cash money here:
It's fast and easy... you can use a credit card through paypal even if you don't have an account.
I urge you to check out what Soul Fixin' is all about. The work they are doing now and future projects urgently need your tax deductable contributions. Professional volunteers are also in demand. Step up to the plate...NOW!
Contributions made by cruisers during Watermelon Slim's set brought tears to the eyes of battle hardened M.C. Chip Eagle, who was heard muttering, "I LOVE these people!"
Me too....

Surprise!!!
What we have here is a failure to communicate! Thanks to Struther Martin for that oh-so-trueism. Hi boys and girls. I see there have been so changes around Blogger since the last time I was here (JUNE!!).
Lotsa changes around the old homestead too. I no longer am affiliated with Highway 49 booking agency, Beau is in college, and my diabetes medicine sucks ass. Hopefully, we will get a better handle on that with today's DR. visit. I sent him a letter with all my bitched on it a couple weks ago, so cross your fingers that he gets it right this time.
To more pleasant news, I will be on the BIG BLUE BOAT again this year and can't wait. Look for a wrap up of that mess late January on Blueswax and our podcast with Beardo & Spinner.
Ya know, if you STILL haven't figured out how to subscribe, to automaticly get the weekly show downloaded to whatever mp3 device you choose.... listen to this:
Feedburner will send you an email with a link to the show whenever there is a new one. What's this mean? It means once you sign up here (only takes a minute and no spyware or selling of your address or other emails) the show can be played or downloaded right from the email.
WOW!! If you are into it... sign up some friends!!!
Ok, this posting will hopefully continue now that I have some time...
Beardo has left the building!

WOW!!!!!
Damn,
As the wheel of Life picks up even more speed I find my posts here lacking. Something must really move me to break the inertial sloth of the last few weeks. After watching this years first episode of IFC's Henry Rollins Show I was impelled to post.
Man, watch this sucker!!! You may have issues with Rollins' music, but he has that laser focus working overtime on socio-political issues...and with a sense of humor to boot!!
Just listen to his show's mission statement and tell me you're not interested!!!
Fuckin' Amazing!!
I want to interview him for The Blueroom...

Stuff!!!!!
Man,
It's been a whirlwind of horseshit called life lately. I've been swamped with too much input and not enuff output for the last 3 weeks or so.
How've you been? Haven't heard from many of you for a while either. New shows are up for podcast, Easter has come and gone(thank Loki)and I'm taking a day off to fuck around with some new software. Thanks to the few who have donated to the cause via the tip jar or througn the t-shirt purchase. Thank you very much.
I'm going to catch up on some e-mail and update the webpage too. Drop me a line or call with Gizmo.
Type to you later...

X- communication?
Strother Martin was right, when in the movie Cool Hand Luke, What we have here is a failure to communicate. Nothing says that more than the lack of inflection or tone of e-mails. How many times has the true meaning of your e-mails been lost by lack of a human facial expression or tone of voice?
That happened this week between myself and The Boss at Alligator Records.
If we mere citizens can have this problem, imagine the phenomenon on a geopolitical level. The Prez can barely make himself understood when ordering a grilled cheese sandwich, then wonders why the people of his country gasp at a statement shifting the oness of the removal of our military presnce in Iraq to "future presidents".
Thoughts anyone?

Tab Benoit on Blueroom
Part one of Tab Benoit's rant concerning Katrina, The Welands, Bush, Louisiana, and maybe some music too.
Check out what he said to Sandy Taint!
Live Longer with Beardo & Spinner
Thought I'd share this e-mail with you folks:
Hi Guys, Al Foders in Orlando, Florida here. I'm 56 years young. I
love Blues music. I've been downloading the show for 8 months now. I put it on my MP3 player and take it to the gym.
I normally workout for 30 to 45 minutes, but since your show is usually 60 minutes, I spend extra time on Saturdays on the cardio machine "Sweatin' To The Blues".
The young, buffed kids around me must wonder what the heck is going on
with this guy "sweatin' like a whore on dollar night" on the elliptical
training machine: his eyes closed, earplugs deeply inserted in his ear
canals, his grey head bobbing up and down in time with the music, his
lips moving as he silently sings along with his favorite tunes. Too
bad...they don't know what they are missing! They get to hear NSync,
Usher, Coldplay and Britanny Spears on the crappy PA system while I hear
the best of the Blues from my friends at Bandana Blues.
You guys keep it up. Thanks to you, I'm going to live longer because of
the extra time spend working out each week.
