I first met Mark Linskey about 6 years ago. I was writing record reviews and band interviews for this little zine at the time and got a contact from GMM records about a band on the road. I emailed THE HUDSON FALCONS for an interview asking to meet up with them in Houston. A few days later I got a reply, Houston was cancelled they told me they had a free day off, did I know anywhere to play? They met up with me in my band's practice room and we invited about 20 kids to watch a free show. A...
1. Black Friday passed a few days ago. Strangely enough, all the people who make fun of Star Wars fans and video game enthusiasts for camping overnight to get movie tickets or a hot new video game system, found themselves camped out for cheap electronics.
2. The band played Friday night. It was a weird feeling as we sat backstage waiting to storm the floor. Josh (my guitar player) stood onstage alone as the crowd clapped in rhythm to a riff he played... "Come on keep clapping," he chanted...
Too... Much... Stuffing...

Sony released it's Playstation 3 video game console yesterday in the United States. Chaos reigned as people who camped overnight all across the country waited to get their hands on one.
Some lucky kids and gamers were able to get one, others, of course went to EBAY auctioneers. What a crock. I don't know how I feel about that, people are making tons of profit over a game system they have no desire to keep for themselves, they just want to cash in on Sonny's lack of ability to adequetly...
When I was a kid, my dad bought my brother and I our first comic books. I'll never forget it. It was a copy of "The Avengers" and looking at the cover I knew I would never settle for boring books again. I'm not sure if my dad ever regretted that, twenty something odd years later, and his boys are still dreaming of flying through the air and throwing cars...
My brother and I were able to cash in our up and coming credentials as a writer and artist team and register as professionals in this...
I'm so glad that Election Day has passed. This season seemed pretty boring, I guess because there was no real mudslinging going on. Sometimes, I entertain the idea that I want to run for a local office, if I did, I would do things way differently...
#1 I'd have a kick a** campaign poster. Everywhere I look, I see boring politcal posters all over the place, they show a name and the title of office they are running for, maybe a patriotic color scheme... that's about it. Not me dude, no way....
"The blues don't make you think- they make you remember. If you've got no memories, you can't have the blues. I avoid physical pain like a vulture avoids live meat, but I call up the past sometimes and let it wash over me on purpose. Maybe it makes me suvive"
Excerpt from the novel "FLOOD" by Andrew Vachss
Is it just me, or should this guy get a ticket for jaywalking?
Chicken Mascot on Navarro
Tommorow morning. HEB Plus opens. They will have closed my usual grocery store which I am totally comfortable with. (My OCD forces me to shop from one part of the store to the other in a strict produce order and route.) Now I have to learn a new floorplan, and fight the big crowds with curious new customers who want to see the next new thing here...
Call me old fashioned, but I don't want to buy grocies where they sell furniture.
PS.. my wife says I shouldn't write about this, unlike...
