Jackyl may be the greatest band ever
-I wouldn't mind being like the pope, buried between two queens
as long as the tombstones weren't labeled C.B.
I can't explain how my musical taste varies with the weather and daily, but this weekend when Buck Wylde and myself went to the used cd shop here's what we came up with: Jackyl-choice cuts(best of), Motorhead(best of) and Tesla-five man acoustical jam. Reading the inside of the jackyl cd, they talked about how much the scene has changed and it will never go back to those days. Driving from town to town, radio stations that actually played what listeners wanted and even promoted cool shows just to gain listeners. With these thoughts in my head listening to the Tesla cd you could almost hear that same sentiment in that concert. Even at the Motorhead show a few weeks ago, Lemmy kept we play rock and roll, and we're a rock and roll band and so forth. Thirty years they've been playing. Not just one summer, playing to venues booked way to big like alien ant farm or Harvey danger probably did. Whats this have to do with anything? This. As you may have heard the Ranch bowl is getting shut down. No one I know is really that up set. In fact Buck and I actually laughed. Even though we've had some great times there, we both know the kind of people that are going to cry over it. The same people that were there when mao was there. Not saying he's old but its the same people hanging out, the same bands with different names. Again, yes they have had some good shows but think about one good show every six months and then months of hot topic employees playing sum 41 covers. thats cool. I know you all have your favorite ranch bowl memories but here are some of mine:
--me throwing a spitter into a crowd of prepubes at a misfits show
--mao actually going to MSI
---Buck Wylde pointing at some kid while puffed up saying "remember that guy"
--Mountain man while puffed ask some kid if he wants to make this interesting
--Mao's ex band mate proposing on stage
---Seeing brody grind on a girl during a show
---seeing brody punk out the mountain man
---the countless phone numbers taken from there year after year
--shaking hands with jerry only
--i'm trying to remember more but i have no long term memory or at least some blockage. Email me some of your favorite times at Pilgrimtroy@yahoo.com or email them to mao, he gets all the emails.
